No one in his or her right senses will say I didn’t visit Buhari in London – Tinubu
President Buhari seeing off his guests – Bisi Akande and Bola Tinubu – at Abuja House, London
National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has said that it is crazy for anyone to say that he did not visit President Muhammadu Buhari in London.
Tinubu, who alongside APC Board of Trustees Chairman, Bisi Akande, was pictured with Buhari in London last Thursday, was reacting to reports that he didn’t travel to London.
A statement was released to this effect by his media aide, Tunde Rahman.
“The report about the so-called denial of the visit is the handiwork of mischief- makers. I felt we should not dignify that with a response.
That report beggars belief. Asiwaju Tinubu and Baba Akande were in London. The reason they travelled to the United Kingdom was to see President Buhari.
And they visited him last Thursday and held discussions with him at the Abuja House in London. After the visit, the President, as a mark of respect, saw off his guests to the door.
Pictures were taken during and after the visit and released to the media by the Presidency. These pictures were international headlines. How can anybody in his or her right senses be saying there was no such visit? It’s simply crazy! I can’t just get it,” the statement said.
