The Presidency has explained why Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose, is not
part of the state governors that would be visiting President Buhari in the UK
later today. Senior
Special Assistant to President Buhari on Media and
Publicity Shehu Garba, Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and
Publicity, Femi Adesina and Special Adviser to acting President Yemi Osinbajo
on Media and Publicity, Laolu Akande, had a joint press conference with state
house correspondents in the villa in Abuja yesterday where they spoke on the
visit. Adesina was asked why the Ekiti state governor who is very critical of
President Buhari was not allowed to be part of the delegation to see President
Buhari. Adesina in his reply said the presidency had no hand in the selection
of the delegates to London.
“The selection was by the governors forum and you will see that the
delegation is headed by governor Yari who is chairman of that forum. So that
question should go to the forum” he said
The governors would be meeting with President Buhari by 3pm today.
