Reason Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo; Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola; and others serving under President Muhammadu Buhari could not visit the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu during his medical trip in London has been revealed.
Gatekeepers News reports that findings revealed that the presidential protocol barred any of the cabinet members to pay Tinubu a visit after the President (Muhammadu Buhari) himself had visited him.
According to reports, Buhari’s earlier visitation prevented his Vice – Osinbajo and other Ministers from going to London to visit the APC leader.
Media Adviser to Aregbesola, Sola Fasure, said the minister could not visit Tinubu in London for protocol reasons.
Fasure said: “If the President has gone, no Minister, not even the Vice President, can go. Aregbesola’s relationship with Tinubu is mutually beneficial and reinforcing.
“Tinubu and Aregbesola are in constant talk. The last time they talked, it lasted for more than one hour. There is no other reason for him (Aregbesola) not to visit Tinubu than just protocol.
“Anybody or group of persons who wants to make a case out of the visitation issue is either ignorant or mischievous.
“Anyway, I can see ignorance and mischief from some of the posts I read online concerning the visitation.”
