According to video published online on Wednesday, as the President’s convoy blitzed through the streets of the Boko Haram threatened city, the crowd that lined the streets, shouted “Bama so”, Bama so”, which means “We Don’t want you”.
In the past, Buhari was received with chants of ‘Sai Buhari’. The chanters were said to be students of Ramat Polytechnic.
The reason for the anger was because of recent attacks by the Boko Haram against communities and the one that incensed them the most was the killing on Sunday of commuters stranded overnight in the town of Auno, because soldiers locked their vehicles out from reaching the safer city of Maiduguri.
In the night, Boko Haram came on the attack, by blasting a fuel tanker in the queue, setting off a fire that killed 30 people, including two female students of the University of Maiduguri.
Dozens of women and children were also reportedly abducted by the Boko Haram.
President Buhari was in Ethiopia when the tragedy occurred and he only offered sops as usual and promises to rescue the abducted.
On his return to Nigeria, Buhari went to Maiduguri to condole with the government and people over the latest Boko Haram-induced tragedy. The people appeared to be tired of all excuses.
Shehu Zubair first shared clips of the angry crowd and hoped that it will teach Buhari to have an overhauled strategy in fighting Boko Haram:

Buhari, Never thought he will receive this kind of treatment in the core north. Just an opposite of his earlier Visits.
Good people of Borno are chanting for BUHARI; "Bama so!" "Bamayi!" Meaning: we don't want-we don't.
