According to a statement
issued by the Special Adviser to the President on media and publicly, Femi
Adesina, in Abuja, on Sunday, Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, said the
President was “very cheerful and (Buhari) has not lost any bit of his sense of
humour.
Governors of All
Progressives Congress (APC) and leaders said they met with President Muhammadu
Buhari in London, on Sunday, adding that he would be returning to the country
whenever his doctors give him the all clear signal.
According to the statement,
Okorocha said the party’s delegation spent more than an hour with President Buhari
over lunch, “and it was very clear from the discussions that he followed
developments at home very closely.”
The statement added: “He
(Okorocha) said the President was delighted to receive the delegation and asked
each governor about affairs in his state. He also asked the Minister of
Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, about the state of the railways.
“According to the governor,
Nigerians don’t have to worry at all, adding that President Buhari will be back
as soon as the doctors give him the green light.
The Presidency quoted the
Imo governor as saying: “By our visit to London today, the merchants of lies
have been put out of business and Nigerians will not buy the garbage they have
been selling. All those who look up to fake news can find better use for their
time.”
The statement named those
in the delegation as Governors Umaru Tanko Al-Makura of Nasarawa; Nasir
El-Rufai of Kaduna; Yahaya Bello of Kogi and APC National Chairman, Chief John
Oyegun.
