A delegation of the All Progressives Congress APC paid a visit to President Muhammadu Buhari in London, where he is on medical vacation.
In a telephone conversation after the meeting of the Governors and leaders of the APC with the President, Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, said “the President was very cheerful and has not lost any bit of his sense of humour.”
Okorocha, who is the leader of the APC Governors’ Forum, said “the party 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.”
He 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.
Okorocha further said: “When asked to react to all the negative things being said about him, the President just laughed, describing such negative reports as lies.
Governor Okorocha said President Buhari was completely unperturbed by the cocktail of lies. He, instead, sent his best wishes to Nigerians.”
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.
“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,” Governor Okorocha noted.
The delegation to London included APC National Chairman, Chief John Oyegun as well as Governors Umaru Tanko Al-Makura of Nasarawa, Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna and Yahaya Bello of Kogi.
