President Muhammadu Buhari’s spokesman, Femi Adesina, has insisted his principal did not visit the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to discuss the 2023 elections.
According to Adesina, it is too early for Buhari to support any aspirant.
He started this during an interview with Channels Television on Friday.
Buhari visited Tinubu while in London, UK and Adesina explained that it was a “goodwill visit”.
Adesina said: “We don’t believe what we read on social media. We have read a lot about Tinubu’s health. The president’s visit was a goodwill visit.
“The president still has two years less three months left. So, for him to start supporting somebody now will be like jumping the gun. You know President Buhari will never do that.
“Before the 2019 election, people began to campaign for him, even before INEC blew the whistle for campaign to start. He was the one who came out to say ‘no, don’t do it; don’t jump the gun’.”
