There was outrage on twitter on Friday after an Iranian born Islamic leader, Imam Mohammad Tawhidi dragged President Muhammadu Buhari for perceived failures in government.

The Imam was fiercely rebuked by supporters of the president leading to a twitter fight that led him into more severe criticisms of the president.

The Australian based Imam had initially accused the president of ignorance of the virus that causes the COVID-19 disease mocking the president’s intonation when he spoke about it.

However, perceived supporters of the president rebuked him accusing him among others of being a foreign agent and a fake Imam.

The Imam returned with more blistering criticisms of the president accusing him of incompetence and of failing to deal with the terrorism that has scared the country in the last few years.

Several Nigerians including the well known Buhari critic, Reno Omokiri inevitably entered the fray with some backing the Imam asserting that he spoke the mind of many Nigerians. There were others, however, who fired back and spoke in strong defence of the president.

GreenWhiteGreen gathered some of the tweets.

The President of Nigeria Muhammadu Buhari still doesn’t know the name of the virus killing 24,000+ at such a rapid rate. Addressing the nation about it for the first time, he pronounced the virus as 'CIVIK 1-9'.

His friend, Imran Khan, thinks Japan and Germany share a border.

Responding to a tweet that he was a Shia agent and an associate of Sheikh El-Zakzaky, he said:

More lies. I am not Nigerian nor am I a follower of Zakzaky and the terrorist regime in Iran. I despise Zakzaky. Criticizing Buhari doesn’t mean I support Zakzaky. I reject them both. I take orders from one person only and that person is my lady. https://t.co/bKNAhIPMxz

Nigerians should know that I’ve actually had contact with his office before, during civil conflicts (Shia-Sunni/army clashes). I was about to come to Nigeria for negotiations and help achieve peace between sects. But it looks like Buhari loves conflict so he can stay in power. https://t.co/uXstnM8X3I

Whoever supports Buhari is not only foolish but also responsible for his crimes regardless of their nationality. I’m not even Nigerian and I am standing up for Nigerians. Maybe you should do the same instead of defending the cult that put that Covikkk criminal in power. https://t.co/ZzDBu4Q7Is

I’ll say it again: Whoever voted for Buhari, especially for the second time after seeing his failures to crack down on terrorists, is 100% stupid, foolish and irresponsible. Victims of terrorism due to Buhari’s incompetence don’t care about minority or majority votes. Wake up. https://t.co/Cy5mUUtWpV

I sit in my country minding my own business. Why does #PresidentCovik and his cult feel the need to target me with their fake news and propaganda?

Are they enjoying being dragged? Enjoying the global and international roasting?

More is on the way for their support of terrorism.

Responding to the developments, Nigerians supporting and against the president tweeted.

If anything should happen to Imam Mohammad Tawhidi, @ImamofPeace, I urge the international community to hold General @MBuhari responsible. In 1984, he attempted to drug and abduct his critic, Umaru Dikko, in London. He can attempt same with Tawhidi#LeadOrLeave #BuhariTormentor

Imam never intended to drag Buhari all the way down. He was only laying inference with that first tweet

But BMC in their usual bad boys manner, thought he was a piecemeal. But they got more than they bargained for. He slaughtered them all & offered them to the gods #ResignBuhari

Why am I supporting #Imam @Imamofpeace? He's speaking the mind of millions of people in this country.

If you dare, DSS will be hunting you or a treasonable felony straight.

It's sad to have a president people are tolerating. #PresidentCovik

It should not be difficult at all to agree that the 'Imam' is a US propagandist and to also agree that his opinion of Buhari is spot on – especially when it's an opinion that repeats what many of us here have stated again and again.

The sad part of all this is that President Buhari is not even aware of what’s happening in Nigeria not to talk about Twitter. Still waiting for him to report his location

I think we should all applaud Imam of peace, finally we have someone who isn't afraid to speak up, President Buhari definitely didn't see this coming ?

Nigerians saying we shouldn’t trust the imam of peace dragging Buhari cause of his hidden intentions is like refusing help from a man while being robbed cause he’s also with a gun.

All these embarrassment from global draggers from Ghana to Uganda,to Australia led by the Imam of Peace would have been avoided if his handlers have listen to my innocent advice.

Allow Buhari to appear on a live broadcast,he does not need to read or say anything, just wave at us

Shame on all the enablers of this regime. So now an outsider is doing your work. I say “your” work because you insist U mean well for the nation. Thank GOD imam is a Muslim too. Hell even an imam. So no one can play the usual religious card. Buhari has FAILED and still failing https://t.co/e4caHWjdth

"This @Imamofpeace, a deciever, fraud & a self-appointed scholar. He's so fake even his name is a deceptive in order to make people he's actually a sunni scholar. He's actually a Shiite with a very different name and a very bloody past. Blockhead Pseudo Imam" pic.twitter.com/5pNWWMhcYv
