Some Nigerians on the social media platform, Twitter, on Tuesday have expressed their displeasure following a tweet by the Speaker of House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila seating among other students at the J.F Kennedy School of Government in the United States of America amidst the lingering strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

As monitored by Neptune Prime, Gbajabiamila tweeted that he had gone back to the Harvard Kennedy School.
“Back to class. In a leadership course @havard @Kennedy_school. Forget the number of grey hairs, one is never too old to learn.”
This has however elicited reactions from Nigerians.
Recall that ASUU had on February 14, 2022, embarked on an industrial action over the failure of the federal government of Nigeria to meet the demands of the union.

Notice how no one is bowing to you or holding your bag or calling you sir. Over there you are just one of the students. Can you ensure that Nigeria operates like this. No unnecessary protocol

It is not by attending class, baba what did you learn and how does that affect the average Nigerian because I am very certain that their tax and resources paid for the course.

Rt Hon, see how at ease you look without all that paraphernalia & strapping of office.
Can you guys in govt create a kind of ecosystem in this country where every Nigerian; elites & citizens can be at ease like this without all that dichotomy in public space.
