Sahara Reporters has obtained information that President Muhammadu Buhari will not be going to Ogoni land to launch the clean up program.

FLASH: Pres Buhari will not be going to Ogoniland to kickoff #NDCleanUp, the VP will now represent him at the event. No reason given!

The Minister of Environment, Amina Mohammed, has assured the people of Ogoni land that President Buhari will show his commitment to the clean-up exercise through personal visit to Ogoni on June 2.

The president scheduled to visit some states in south-eastern Nigeria to discuss with local leaders ways to tackle renewed violence in the area.


Buhari’s visit comes as attacks on oil installations blamed on the new group Niger Delta Avengers partially stopped oil production, and forced Chevron and Royal Dutch Shell to close at least two plants.

One of the militants has on June 1 warned the life of President Buhari is in danger if he visits the Niger Delta region.

Nigerians in their reactions to the cancelled trip supposed that President Buhari is afraid to face the militants.
