President Buhari Media aide, Femi Adesina has boast that his principal is highly respected abroad even though Nigerians don’t respect him
Mr Adesina made this claim even in the face of excruciating hardship occasioned by the harsh economy, insecurity and increasing rise in prices of foodstuffs.
He disclosed this in an article titled, “Buhari in Portugal: A Prophet has no honour in his Country,” which he shared on his official Facebook page on Thursday.
According to Adesina, Buhari’s strides in infrastructure, agriculture, social investment, and many others will remain evergreen.
He, however, said security is a thorny issue, adding that the government would crack it in the remaining 11 months.
“I’ve seen President Buhari decorated with National Awards across continents, completely unsolicited. And the man remains ever self-effacing, without a single bone of arrogance in his body. Don’t you love to follow a man like this? I sure do,” he said.
“President Buhari’s footprints will be indelible on the sands of time. His strides in infrastructure, agriculture, social investment, and many others will remain evergreen. Security is a thorny issue. I pray he cracks it in the remaining 11 months. As for revisionists, who try to ensure that the administration would be remembered for only massive insecurity that has plagued the land, they will never win. Buhari’s place in history is secure already. Good and honest Nigerians will always remember him for his positive strides, and the world will not forget him either.
“In Spain about four weeks ago, one of the diplomats we had lunch together had said at our table that President Buhari was a man of high integrity, who they respect highly in the West. This has been proven again in Portugal. Grand Collar of the Order of Prince Henry. So, again, let’s ‘buga’ for Mr President, ‘go-low-low-low buga won.’”
