Yesterday, the world watched America inaugurate a new President and Vice president, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
While the festivities were ongoing, micro-blogging app Twitter was buzzing with memes as folks analysed outfits, and cracked jokes. From Michelle Obama’s laid hair to Ebuka Obi-Uchendu catching a stray, here are some of the best memes the 46th American Presidential inauguration ceremony gave us.
Michelle Obama’s Drip
When it comes to fashion, you know Michelle Obama don’t play. But this time, she brought an AK 47 assault rifle to a stick fight; the woman totally ate!
Her hair deserves a whole article dedicated to it but we’ll manage. Smooth, bouncy, and curly, it was every definition of laid.

She paired her bouncy curls with a plum-hued coat, a matching turtleneck, and wide-leg trousers, all perfectly held together with a statement gold belt. The designer, Sergio Hudson, has worked with the Obama’s before as well as Rihanna, Beyonce and other A-list celebrities. Twitter had a lot to say about the entire show-stopping outfit.

Bernie Sanders
Former presidential aspirant Senator Bernie Sanders looked like he was over it. He arrived in a practical coat, cute mittens and sat afar off from everyone, seriously observing social distancing.
All that pomp and flair and the Vermont Senator looked like he would rather be on his couch sipping a warm cup of chocolate and red wine. Of course, the people of the internet caught on and the Bernie Sanders jokes came pouring.

While admiring how organised and seamless the 46th American Presidental Inauguration ceremony was, Nigerians really could not resist the urge to take jabs at their country’s “anyhowness.”
