At the Commonwealth Business Forum, President Muhammadu Buhari stated: “More than 60 percent of the population is below 30.

Wikipedia described the lazy Nigerian youths as “a social media revolt by Nigerian youths against their president, Muhammadu Buhari.”
It went further: “While speaking at the Commonwealth Business Forum in Westminster in April Buhari said a lot of Nigerian youths have not been to school and they want everything free because the country is an oil producing state.
“But the Nigerian youths will not have any of it as they soon took to social media to protest against the comment of the number one citizen of the country.”
