Why Buhari will not speak to Nigerians from London – Femi Adesina

Junaid Mohammed tell buhari

The Presidency, on Thursday declared that President Muhammadu Buhari will not speak to Nigerians from London because he has right to his vacation.

Featuring on TVC television Programme, ‘This Morning’, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Femi Adesina, said Buhari’s right will not be infringed upon.

According to Adesina, “Mr. President will not speak to Nigerians because he has a right to his vacation, we don’t need to intrude.”

The President’s media aide also noted that those doubting the veracity of the released photographs of the President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara’s visit in London are “haters, greedy.”

Recall that both National Assembly leaders met with the President yesterday at his vacation spot in London.

Buhari, who is currently on a medical vacation in London, was recently rumoured dead.

However, several dignitaries from Nigeria have visited him at the Abuja House in London with photographs of their visits published online.

Some of the photos have resulted to widespread condemnations from Nigerians, who have insisted that he speaks to the nation from his vacation to show he is alive.

    Nigerians got the messages wrongly or either that they do not understand the meaning to words in a sentence.

    The words in the statements announcing the president’s movement were “the president would be going on a vacation during which he would have his medical checkups amongst other things.

    ”Vacation implies “Leave” and not medical vacation.

    The error which has been made is to assume that the president was on medical vacation whereas the president was on his annual vacation mainly and he had done the needful before leaving for London so what again.

    People should know when they are wrong.
    Hhmmmmmm.
    Ill educationis equally a builder of tragedy.

    Silly talk. If Buhari is on vacation, then why is everyone rushing over to London to visit him and making sure the pictures are released for the public. The more the Presidency is trying to Hogwash the public, the less believable their story becomes.
