Nigerian comedian Lasisi Elenu, known for his humorous commentary on societal issues, has stirred discussions online after expressing his longing for former President Muhammadu Buhari amidst the country’s current economic challenges.
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, the comedian, whose real name is Nosa Afolabi, shared a voice note he privately sent to Buhari, where he emotionally stated, “I miss you… God help me na die I dey.” Lasisi explained that his message wasn’t on behalf of anyone but himself and his family, admitting he never expected to feel this way.
Buhari left office in May 2023, and since then, many Nigerians believe the economy has worsened. Lasisi’s comments have sparked mixed reactions, with some followers agreeing that Buhari’s tenure provided a sense of order, while others reminded of the difficulties during his administration.
