Bola Tinubu: I DID visit President Buhari in the UK


The National Leader of the APC, Chief Bola Tinubu, says it is crazy for anyone to say he did not visit President Buhari in the UK last week.


After the photos of his visit to Buhari was released last week, some Nigerians claimed the photos were photoshopped.

Reacting to the claims, Tinubu in a statement released via his media aide, Tunde Rahman, said the story that he didn't visit the president is the handiwork of mischief-makers


"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. Asiwaju Tinubu and Baba Akande were in London. 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." the statement read
