Over the last few days, there have been a number of tremors in Nigeria’s capital territory, Abuja. Residents were expectedly spooked- tremors and earthquakes are not common in this part of the world. But then the agencies in charge explained that they were merely aftershocks from earthquakes on the other side of the world- Fiji. Phew!
However, as we’re getting into the Nigerian political scene where politicians find an undertone to every incident, a Twitter user @Ehix07 imagined what the political reaction from several individuals could have been. The thread is hilarious.
AFTER THE EARTH TREMOR THAT OCCURRED IN ABUJA DAYS AGO,OFFICIAL REACTION FROM DIFFERENT QUARTER’S.
