JUST IN: Garba Shehu opens up on Buhari, Tinubu London meeting

Former President Muhammadu Buhari did not ask his successor, Bola Tinubu, not to probe his appointees at their meeting in London last Monday, ex presidential spokesperson, Mallam Garba Shehu has said.

 

 

 

Shehu said this while reacting to a report that Buhari asked Tinubu not to probe his ministers and former aides at their meeting in London last Monday.

 

 

 

But Shehu, in a post on his Twitter handle with the caption ‘What Buhari Didn’t Say To President Tinubu,’ dismissed the report as he affirmed that no one else was with Buhari and Tinubu when they met in London on Monday.

 

 

 

Shehu also insisted that Buhari went to London to rest after he couldn’t do so in Katsina due to influx of people.

 

 

 

He also added that the former President will wish to remain out of the spotlight as much as possible.

“It remains his wish that he be allowed to have his needed rest, and for the Tinubu administration to have the right atmosphere to work on the realisation of the promises they made.”

WHAT BUHARI DIDN’T SAY TO PRESIDENT TINUBU.

If social media is to be believed, former President Muhammadu Buhari is requesting his successor, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu not to investigate some former officials of his government.

 

 

 

It is fake, let us not discuss it or give it energy or air of publicity. This is fake news, and nothing more.
