Buhari who addressed the nation more than two weeks after the protest began failed to impress many Nigerians with his address.
Reacting to the speech, Reno, who is a staunch critic of the APC-led government, expressed that the president slapped Nigerians in the face and added salt to injury.
See his tweets below:
General @MBuhari slapped Nigerians in the face. Added salt to injury. Accused us of taking his disbandment of SARS as “weakness”. He showed his weakness by rehabilitating Boko Haram. He showed his wickedness by the #LekkiMassacre of peaceful #EndSARS protesters. VERY EMPTY SPEECH

Nothing tangible was said.
•No condolences to victim’s families
•He did not address #LekkiMassacre or promise to bring perpetrators to book
•He did not present a coherent plan on the way forward
•He INSULTED #EndSARS
•Took no responsibility
•He should GO!— Reno Omokri (@renoomokri) October 22, 2020
Listening again to General @MBuhari’s speech, all I saw was blame. Nothing is ever Buhari’s fault. #EndSARS is the fault of #LazyNigerianYouths, and not a President that has refused to try rogue cops. Buhari is a poster boy for the saying that when you are lame, you love to blame

A true leader would have spoken to comfort the nation, but this barely educated General @MBuhari spoke to threaten the nation. Who does Buhari think he is? A failure in marriage, life and business, coming to lecture us! If not for quota system, you would have remained a korofo!
