Drama started yesterday evening when a social media user - Arake Akinwande who is based in the United Kingdom alleged that President Muhammadu Buhari was spending 4,000 pounds daily to secure a parking lot for the presidential jet in London, United Kingdom.
This when calculated in line with the official exchange rate of a Pound to a Naira at the rate of N400 amounts to N83.2 million in the last 52 days since he left on the 7th of May, 2017 for a medical treatment abroad.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu has cleared the air on the amount with an apparent vague explanation but Nigerians have continued to react on Twitter.
A Nigerian Ph.d student of the prestigious University of Otago in Dunedin, Otago, New Zealand, Olumuyiwa Amao - a regular public commentator on Channels TV has criticized the seeming act of flagrant waste of scarce public funds by President Buhari.
