Buhari shocked us by declaring for second term – Presidency
Muhammadu Buhari's declaration to seek re-election came to him and
others as a rude shock.
He said those who work closely with him never knew the President will
give it a 'second shot.'
Femi Adesina told Channels Television that they never had inkling that
the President will seek re-election.
"If anybody says that they knew it was going to happen is just a
matter of surmising or conjecture. For those of us who work closely
with the President, we didn't have that feeling. We didn't at all.
Nobody could say for sure that Mr. President was going to take a
second shot," he said.
When asked if Nigerians still had the need to bother about the
President's health now that he is seeking re-election, Adesina said
Mr. President was a man of integrity and would have yielded to
warnings if his doctor deems him unfit.
"What his doctor says is between him and his doctor. Unless you know
it, it doesn't have to bother you. The president is a very responsible
man and if there was any warning from his doctor, he wouldn't have
ventured into this," he said.
