In a tweet sighted by Legit.ng, Bwala said,

"We have seen the movie before. Whilst PMB’s media people were busy saying the president is on a working trip or visit, PMB keeps saying “I have never been this sick before”. I thought Tinubu’s media aides would learn from that; alas if it didn’t Dey, it didn’t Dey.

"Now they have learned to call the medical follow-up trip as a working trip. Hold on; he is not yet the president so technically it is wrong to call it a working trip or visit. It is better his media people learn to humanize him so they do not have to make lies a statecraft."

Nigerians react

Nigerians took to the Twitter comment section of Bwala and reacted to the development.

@ammaalo tweeted:

"SA Lamentation, this one too be headache right? I pray you get well soon from the trauma of the defeat."
