Since President Muhammadu Buhari left the country over 85 days ago, he has been dominating headlines, both on local and international news platforms.
On Sunday, US news network CNN made a mockery of his absence on GPS, a programme hosted by Fareed Zakaria.
As expected, Nigerians reacted on social media, particularly on Twitter. Below are some of the reactions:

The veiled admission of CNN over Buhari's unfitness to govern should be a reminder to all who court the West for regime change in Africa
