The President had arrived in the state on Friday, hours before the abduction took place but failed to visit the community three days after the incident.

A google map check by SaharaReporters showed that the distance between Daura, Buhari’s hometown and Kankara is 190km, a journey of less than 3-hours if the President decided to travel by road.

Using the hashtag #BringBackOurBoys, Nigerians on Twitter berated Buhari over the high rate of insecurity in the country.

They also called on the President, who is currently in Daura, to show empathy by visiting the scene of the incident.

Below are some reactions:

Another weekend, another atrocity.

Over 300 boys kidnapped on Friday from a government boarding school; including a teenager named after Nigeriaâ€™s Pres Buhari.

The sad aspect of the abduction of the boys of GSSS Kankara, is that no service chief will be removed. No one will be sacked. General #Buhari will keep using taxpayer fund to rehabilitate Boko Haram. @Elrufai will continue paying herdsmen. NOTHING will change!#BringBackOurBoys

@MBuhari is in Daura but can't evn go to Kankara to show his sympathy to the families of the victims. You have failed your own people.ðŸ¤§ we vote u to protect our lives nd proprties, nd u don't know wht u ar doing.

On Friday, when President Buhari wanted to go to the airport, the whole road was blocked-no vehicle movement around the airport road for several mins.

He was traveling to the same Katsina where hundreds of #KankaraStudents were abducted.

@freshfmabeokuta The abduction of these students is totally out of the sensible issue at all, yet President @MBuhari can't visit the school where such abduction occurred, and he's in the State, does this means he's not the one in place of power. #BringBackOurBoys

Having a "General" as a president. One 'll think we 'll have the best security arthitectures in place. Unfortunately not as this is the worse secured period in our lives as a Nation. Nowhere seem to be safe, sleeping peacefully at night is now becoming a luxury #BringBackOurBoys

With the degree of confidence/effontry those bandits had to attack the secondary with the fact that they're aware of the presidents presence in the state, that should let everyone know that @mbuhari is truly incompetent,.
Bandits fears a competent leader. #bringbackourboys

A former Director-General of the Nigeria Maritime Agency, Buba Galadima, has accused the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria of witch-hunt after the agency took possession of his business and assets on Tuesday in Abuja. Galadima, an ardent critic of President Muhammadu Buhari, claimed that he did not borrow money or have unpaid debt with Unity Bank, which lodged a complaint against him and occasioned AMCON’s move on Tuesday. The properties taken over include House No. 15, Addis Ababa Crescent, Wuse Zone 4, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja and House No. 4, Bangui Street, Wuse 2, also in Abuja.
