It’s Crazy Saying I Didn’t Visit Buhari In London – Tinubu

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), said it is crazy for anyone to insinuate that he did not visit President Muhammadu Buhari in London, United Kingdom.

The former Lagos State governor had last week visited the President in the company of Bisi Akande, former interim national chairman of APC.

Tinubu has dismissed the report which surfaced on the social media insinuating that he said he didn’t visit President Buhari in London last week.

Tinubu was quoted as saying that he was actually in Ibadan on the supposed day he was reported in London to see the president.

“The report about the so-called denial of the visit is the handiwork of mischief- makers. I felt we should not dignify that with a response. That report beggars belief. Asiwaju Tinubu and Baba Akande were in London,” a statement by Tinubu’s media aide, Tunde Rahman, stated.

“The reason they travelled to the United Kingdom was to see President Buhari. And they visited him last Thursday and held discussions with him at the Abuja House in London. After the visit, the President, as a mark of respect, saw off his guests to the door.

“Pictures were taken during and after the visit and released to the media by the Presidency. These pictures were international headlines. How can anybody in his or her right senses be saying there was no such visit? It’s simply crazy! I can’t just get it.”
