CABAL: Saraki lied – Presidency

Buhari

                                         Buhari

The Presidency said Senate President Bukola Saraki’s claim that a cabal has taken over the President Muhammadu Buhari’s Government was not only ridiculous but also preposterous since it was not backed by facts and detailed information.

Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, said Saraki’s claim would have been more worthwhile if he had backed it up with more information.

The Presidency statement reads”

“President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, claims there is “now a government within the government of President Buhari”, which has allegedly seized the apparatus of Executive powers to pursue a nefarious
agenda.

“This claim by Senator Saraki would have been more worth the while, if it had been backed with more information. If he had proceeded to identify those who constitute the “government within the government,” it would have
taken the issue beyond the realm of fiction and mere conjecture.

“But as it stands, the allegation is not even worth the paper on which it was written, as anybody can wake from a troubled sleep, and say anything.

“The Attorney-General of the Federation is the Chief Law Officer of the state. It is within his constitutional powers to determine who has infringed upon the law, and who has not.

“Pretending to carry an imaginary cross is mere obfuscation, if, indeed, a criminal act has been committed. But we leave the courts to judge.

“To claim that President Muhammadu Buhari is anybody’s stooge is not only ridiculous, but also preposterous. It is not in the character of our President.
