Nigerians deserve to know the truth about President Buhari’s sudden vacation - Fayose

Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose
has said that the statement issued by the
Presidency on President Mohammadu
Buhari’s sudden vacation was vague,
saying; “Nigerians deserve to know the
truth about their President because the
President is an open book that every
Nigerians should be free to read.”
The governor, who said he was aware of the
high-wire plot to use the Supreme Court to upturn
his electoral victory, insisted that nothing will
stop him from speaking the truth concerning
issues in the country.
He said it was suspicious that a president, who
told Nigerians that he was embarking on official
visit to France and Britain, last Tuesday, would
suddenly commence a five-day vacation while still
in the United Kingdom.
According to a statement issued by his Special
Assistant on Public Communications and New
Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor, who prayed
for safe return of the President, said “Nigerians
deserve to know where exactly their president is
spending his vacation.”
He however commended the President for handing
over to the Vice President as stipulated by the
Constitution of the country.
He said; “We were told last Tuesday, that Mr
President was travelling to France and from there
to London to attend the Syria Donor Conference,
and that he would return to Nigeria this weekend.
“All of a sudden, we were told that the President
was embarking on a five-day vacation. Where and
why? We were not told.
“Curiously, it was at this same period, last year
that President Buhari, who was at that time the
All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential
candidate, disappeared from public, with lies told
about him granting interviews in London.
“It is therefore important that in future, the
presidency should be more explicit in
communicating with Nigerians on issues regarding
the President because a nation’s president is an
open book that can be read by anyone.
