BREAKING: Buhari’s Son Under Fire After Revealing Reason for Reps Ambition

“I’m From a Big Home” Comment Sparks Massive Reactions Online  


By MATTERS ARISING 6060

A fresh political storm is brewing online after one of former President Muhammadu Buhari’s sons reportedly declared “I am from a big home” as the first reason behind his ambition to contest for a seat in the House of Representatives.

The remark, made during a Hausa-language interview, has set social media ablaze, with many Nigerians expressing outrage and disbelief over what they see as a shocking justification for seeking public office.

Within hours of the interview circulating, reactions flooded Facebook, X, and other social platforms, as users questioned whether family name and political pedigree should now replace leadership experience and grassroots service.

The controversy has also revived earlier criticism from veteran journalist Reuben Abati, who openly questioned the young aspirant’s credentials.

Abati had pointedly asked what leadership record Buhari’s son possesses to warrant representing the people, arguing that he is better known publicly for bike riding than for any verifiable history of public service, activism, or leadership.

The statement has now ignited a wider national conversation on political dynasty, entitlement, and whether Nigeria’s democracy is becoming increasingly dominated by family legacy rather than merit.

As outrage continues to grow online, many observers say the incident reflects the deep frustration among Nigerians over the perceived recycling of political influence within elite families.
