Madam though we sane Nigerians are disappointed with the way you personally attacked the candidates of the pdp last night but we still thank you for giving us the opportunity to see and know first-hand what we are voting for. Now we know we aren't voting lifelessness again

Atiku would had made an Alter Call yesterday immediately after The Candidates cos most Buharists in the hall like Kadaria and others were ready to surrendered their votes to him?. A die hard fan of Buhari… https://t.co/KoxGeBhSd2

Did you even watch the program. Kadaria was biased and you know it. However, Atiku /Obi answered flawlessly. Your APC candidates didn't even answer the cheap leading questions nicely asked. Just be honest with yourself for once.

I'm just now watching #NgTheCandidates, Atiku/Obi were brilliant! @KadariaAhmed was dissapointing, she kept interrupting when the candidates were saying important things. Also, where were these hard questions when he interviewed Grandpa and market trader?

We're cool & not annoyed with @KadariaAhmed, our candidates showed great character, the world is convinced mediocres are not allowed on this side.
Verdict: She interrogated @Atiku @PeterObi & discussed with @MBuhari @ProfOsinbajo.#NGTheCandidates #NigeriaDecides2019 https://t.co/zn6nL2AN3f

During Buhari's interview kadaria looked professional and smart
But today with Atiku she looked unprofessional and biase. She became an angry bird. Guilty conscience pushed her 2 say " you are making me look like I support the APC and I don't want that…." ??— kucheli Dibal (@KucheliD) January 30, 2019
She allowed emotions get the better of her to the point those words slipped out of her mouth without her knowing. I'd never seen renowned journalists behave that way. She needs to do damage control.

Kadaria handled Buhari with kid's gloves and he was a big flop. She's tough on Atiku and like precious metal in fire, he's shinning. #NgTheCandidates

I noticed too. Atiku was quite composed though. And Peter was his usual self, she was the the one on the hot seat.

Kadaria hasn’t broken a smile since the interview started, squeezing face like its Atiku that sank Nigeria into -2% recession.
But with Buhari she was flashing teeth like small girl they’re chyking.
Very poor moderator.#NgTheCandidates

Your Comment. I patiently watch the interview, I have nothing to say than to say that she is not professional , but never the less her unprofessional help me to see and to know what I don’t know before. Thanks national coordinator ALL TRIBE FORUM
well, you people can blame her but to me I didn’t see anything wrong with her moderation. she only trying to put Atiku n his running mate to the direct questions as they are bicotting the wright peg to the wrong hole. Atiku cannot be our president.. history will tell
Yes, the enemy threw Atiku and Obi in the “lions’ den” but God brought them out unhurt. Kadaria seemed to have prearranged the questions with Atiku’s opposition and there’s no doubt about this. Atiku, this a sign of victory that is ahead!
