THE ALGORITHM REPORT: Buhari Logs Off 🇳🇬
Former President Muhammadu Buhari passed away at age 82.
Depending on your political trauma tolerance, this is either breaking news or…closure. Cue the tweets, think pieces, and "I told you he looked tired" retweets.
Love him or loathe him, Buhari's exit marks the end of a meme era. From Buhari is resting to the cloned president saga, the man was a walking headline. History will decide what he meant politically. Twitter already decided months ago. RIP to the most screenshot-forwarded man in Nigerian WhatsApp groups.
