President Muhammadu Buhari addressed the nation on Thursday, appealing to citizens to turn out en masse for Saturday’s elections.
Reeling out the achievements of his government, the president asked the people to make a wise choice during the election.
The broadcast has been received mixed feelings. While his supporters hailed him, critics accused the president of using resources of the state for free campaign.
Here are some reactions on Twitter:
@Gwariboy
In 2011, Buhari sensed defeat & urged his followers to destroy & kill anyone who tried to stop them. Couple of days ago in Zamfara he suggested his followers to get ready for war. Every time Buhari senses defeat his best resolve is violence. It’s his pattern, he’s known for that.

It is understandable that we all want to live comfortable lives. It is also important to realize that the most comfortable thing we can all do is to work hard and live within our means.

If you live within your means, you won’t be flying to London for medicals, you will be in Nigeria. Nigerians who are not able to fly to London, make use of hospitals in Nigeria. Besides, you live within your means but fly in private jets of your friends, collect dollars from them

Have u noticed how often the buhari admin abuses the concept of “living within your means”? People are dying and hunger is everywhere. Businesses are shutting down, no inflow of FDI. Ppl r already living far way below means in a ruthless austerity sir. In case u haven't noticed.

Lol. We begged you. For almost 4 years. To address the nation. We were being killed, harassed. One disaster after the other. We begged for empathy. Then maybe just sympathy. But you wouldn't even do that much. And now, you are ready to talk to us. To beg for votes.

Think about it, Buhari didn't speak to you until few days to Election.
SARS Killing Nigerians he never said anything, Soldiers killed in North East, all he did was sent you a memo through Lie Mohammed. You have few hours to choose now. Think it twice! After Saturday??

The Buhari government claims it's fighting corruption but we all know they steal from us to enrich their families. This government is out to impoverish Nigerians. #RejectBuhari #RejectPoverty

For 4 years, Buhari shielded himself from Nigerians. He even refused to address our press. There was a time we had Presidential Media Chats. All gone down the drain. But in 3 months, Buhari has toured the whole country and addressed the country thrice. Are we fools? #RejectBuhari

Your incompetence has destroyed millions of means
Now you ask those without to live within their means
Do you truly understand what it means to live within means
How have you helped the govt we trusted you with live within its means?
You borrowed more and did less. #RejectBuhari413
