President Muhammadu Buhari has praised the Nigerian media over the role it has played by informing the populace effectively.
President Muhammadu Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari, currently on a short vacation in the
UK, has saluted the Nigerian media for performing its duties
diligently. The President, who made his position known on his Twitter
handle, @MBuhari, on Sunday in London, said he was always in touch with
news from home.
President Buhari, whose picture was also posted in the tweet,
specifically named Channels TV as one of his favourite Television
stations. He said: “Wherever I am, I keep up with news from home.
Channels TV is one of my favorites. I’m proud of what the Nigerian media
are achieving."
The post has, therefore, dispelled the insinuation about the President’s health conditions.
The Presidential spokespersons on Saturday night in Abuja described
as ”evil rumours” the social media reports on President Muhammadu
Buhari’s health conditions. Meanwhile, many Nigerians have taken to
Twitter and Facebook to castigate the mischief makers.
One of the post on Facebook said: “Godly for mouth, devilish at
heart…how on earth could anyone use death as a mischief tool? It is
only God the almighty that giveth life and HE alone has the power to
taketh same life.”
“For those spreading wicked and evil rumour about death of a
soul, they should know that; they themselves don’t know when, where and
in which circumstances they will perish.
“They can wish PMB death thousand times and have fun; the same
God that created them from drop of sperm to their miserable state is
watching them. Long live Nigeria and good Nigerian people, long live
PMB!”
President Buhari left Abuja for the United Kingdom on Thursday on a short leave, which is part of his annual vacation.
He is expected to resume work on Feb. 6, 2017.
