Nigerians' reactions to Governor Bago's dancing

Some Nigerians have taken to the comment section to react to the development:

Sani Suleman Isah claimed:

"The northern governors are busy promising Mr Southlokan that the north will vote for him. They are not actually telling him the truth. No northern governor can win any elections for themselves if they are actively campaigning for their APC."

Mazi Damola Williams commented:

"The president should be careful and watchful; he shouldn't be carried away by all this ojuaye drama. The Northern establishment isn't joking; they want to prove a point that they control and have the power to decide who rules or leads this country. He must be ready for a battle."

Aliyu Lemu criticised the governor:

"Gov. Bago dancing in support of Tinubu while Niger State suffers from poor road planning and crippling power issues is a slap in the face to the people. Instead of celebrating, he should be fixing the hardship his short-sighted decisions have caused. This isn’t leadership—it’s negligence wrapped in theatrics. A real shame to governance."

Sir Tee lamented the situation in the country:

"Are you people not ashamed? It is always about the 2027 elections. We are still in 2025. It has never been this bad. Sigh."

Da McCoy decried the removal of the fuel subsidy:

"Of course, if you take out subsidies from the masses and give more money to governors known for looting, why won’t they praise you and l!ck your a$$ without shame."

Adedejisam wrote:

"O ti tan! It is finished!! 2027-2031 SEALED."
