kakistocracy is a system of government that is run by the worst, least qualified.
It is safe to say that Buhari runs a Kakistocratic government.

What our leaders and security agencies are doing is injustice. They blocked the only road that link Zaria with P.Z and Samaru. People and businesses are stranded.#BuhariCabinet #zariawater #Zaria

Have you people taken time to study the Buhari ministers, Region by Region? It would amaze you to know that all the North West ministers are senior ministers -9 of them. What a man! Even the North East is that lucky.#BuhariCabinet

Festus Keyamo is a former EFCC PROSECUTOR. Godswill Akpabio is a former EFCC SUSPECT. Akpabio is now Keyamo’s BOSS. A former PROSECUTOR will now be saying ‘yes sir’ to a former SUSPECT.
You can just imagine the irony! #BuhariCabinet pic.twitter.com/xhJmKjoVsy

You are working with someone you were prosecuting with the efcc for gross corruption and misappropriation.
This is disgraceful but I know a hungry man must eat.
I had respect for you but that doesn’t even matter anymore #BuhariCabinet https://t.co/NWm2Z2hfxU
