Entertainer and activist, Charly Boy, has taken a swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari for using his 800 metres trek after the Eid-el-Kabir prayer on Tuesday as a campaign point.
Presidential aide, Garba Shehu, revealed that the president trekked 800 metres from the Eid prayer ground to his house in Daura on Tuesday.
He also said that the action showed that the president is very fit to seek a re-election.
Charly boy took to Twitter on Wednesday to label Buhari a failure saying that if he likes he should trek from Abuja to Jericho.
“If Buhari like make e trek from abuja reach Jericho, who e hep? Na confirm failure. Em health, em precidency, suffering Nigerians.
“Before my papa die at 97, e dey trek at least I mile a day. Sai Baba go rest, no dey drag with your children dem. Is not by force Abegi. OurMumuDonDo,” he wrote.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar also took a swipe at the president saying that he regularly jogs for more than a mile.
Atiku responded to the statement by the presidential spokesman by posting a picture of himself exercising on the treadmill on Twitter.
“I regularly jog more than a mile and exercise, but it will be pedestrian of me to ask Nigerians to vote for me because of that,” he wrote.
