Twitter crowns Buhari President of Stingy Men Association because of this photo

President Muhammadu Buhari has been inducted and crowned President of the virtual Stingy Men Association by Nigerians on the microblogging platform, Twitter.

This comes after a trendy image of the president handing over a meagre N1,000 to a bunch of kids who reportedly visited him surfaced online.

Buhari becomes the latest high-profile personality to be caught in the social media trend. Musicians Don Jazzy, Mr Eazi DJ Neptune, and Kaywise were inducted early this week.

ID cards were also printed and given to eligible members across the country.

The trend is a self-deprecating joke about men, amid the never-ending gender wars on social media, Pulse.ng said.

Close associates and aides of the president have commented on the image, noting that the leader never indulges in splashing the cash or handing out generous cash gifts to visitors and sycophants as most politicians in the land are wont to do.



"Buhari did these niggas dirty man. They wore their best clothes and baba gave them 1k. If I go to the villa and Buhari gives me 1k. Best believe I will fight him, and na DSS and him ADC go separate us," tweeted Radio personality Osikhena Dirisu.





There was more Twitter reaction about Buhari's induction into SMAN.



"National leader of Stingy Men Association showing y'all how it is done," chimed Segun Dada.





Even the president's social media aide, Lauretta Onochie, joined in on the fun.



And to think that SMAN members are already holding physical meetings across the country.
