Some Nigerians on Twitter are making fun of by blaming his video call to the national football team for the loss to Tunisia in the AFCON games.
Nigeria had won all their previous group matches, emerging as favourites in the tournament.
Tunisia won Sunday’s match 1-0, with their coach and several players out after contracting coronavirus.
Nigerians online expressed their disappointment albeit in a humorous way, and blamed their president:
May Buhari Not Phone You On The Day That Is Scheduled for your promotion and celebration! #AFCON2021 #TableShaker pic.twitter.com/sr1bYwqh1j

Nigerians online have asked Ghanaians not to mock them as revenge for the trolling they experienced after Ghana crashed out of the tournament:
Dear Ghanaians,
Do not assume for 1 second pe if we lose this match we will allow you to insult our super eagles. We (Nigerians) are the only ones allowed to do that.
We’re angry so if you talk AT us, you’ll collect.#Nigeriavstunisia
