The Presidency on Saturday branded former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar a liar for claiming that President Muhammadu Buhari could not enter the United States of America on account of religious consideration.
Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina in a statement said Atiku’s claim which he said was fictive concoction being passed off as truth is mind boggling, coming from a former number two man of Nigeria, who should know the truth.
“At no time was President Buhari, as a private person, ever forbidden from entering any country in the world. Rather, the rest of the world has always held Muhammadu Buhari as a man of sterling qualities, strong on integrity, transparency and accountability. The same testimony is still borne of the Nigerian President by many world leaders today.
“It is curious that former VP Abubakar had been asked why he had not visited America for over a decade, something that had been a stubborn fact dogging his footsteps. Instead of answering directly, he begged the question, saying Buhari also had been disallowed from entering the same country for 15 years, before becoming President.
