According to report reaching oyogist.com, the pigeons (white doves) released by the Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari, at the Armed Forces Remembrance Day ceremony, refused to fly despite many attempts by the president to make the pigeons fly.
The President opened the white bird cage in an attempt to mark the Armed Forces Remembrance Day ceremony, in a remarkable way but to the amazement of many, the Pigeons refused to fly even after President Buhari made so many efforts to ensure they fly.
However, the refusal of the birds to fly at the Armed Forces Remembrance Day, has now sparked thousands of heated comments on social media as many Nigerians have taken to their various social media pages to air their view on the strange occurrence.
The notable of the comments by the social media users is that of the former presidential aspirant of the All Progressives Congress, and Crowwe founder, Adamu Garba, who stated that; “The pigeons are tired and overtime became lazy, they don’t want to fly the spirit of The Nigerian Flag. We should roast them at Suya joint and deploy Crowwe for action.”
Former Nigerian Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, who’s known as an ardent critic of the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, also commented on the event saying, “Hmmm. Even the pigeons in Nigeria.”
