Security Tightened At Abuja House In London As Presidency Keeps Silent On Buhari by Principe67(m): 10:08am On Feb 21, 2017
The security officials at the Abuja House in London have adopted series of new measures to protect President Muhammadu Buhari and those visiting the building which is said to be housing Nigeria’s number one citizen.

According to The Guardian reporter stationed just outside the premises of the building, the officials at the House have stepped up security measures to prevent him or other media men from talking to visitors to the building.

Some of the new measures which have thrown up a high sense of secrecy include:

1. Drivers are now to pack their cars as closely to the building as possible to prevent media men from seeing who the President’s visitors are

2. President Buhari’s visitors are now taken through the back door to protect their identity.

3. Visitors to the building are also barred from talking to media men, like The Guardian’s reporter, who might be waiting just outside the Abuja House’s premises to know how the President’s health is faring.

4. The officials now refuse to answer any calls inquiring about the President’s state of health. As usual, they are directing callers to speak with the Nigerian High Commission which is also in London.

Even Buhari’s family members are bound by the new rules.

The Guardian reports:“Members of President Muhammadu Buhari’s household continued to evade The Guardian’s reporter in London yesterday. They were forced to enter the Abuja House in London through the back door so as not to be seen by the reporter when a Mercedes Jeep bringing them back to the premises arrived around 4:09 p.m.

n sighting the reporter outside the official residence of the Nigerian high commissioner to the United Kingdom, the driver drove very close to the main door and by the time they noticed the reporter had run to the second gate, they didn’t use the front entrance that had been opened by one of the members of staff inside.

“Rather, the vehicle reversed very close to the side door and dropped off the occupants. One of the girls sighted on Sunday looked back carefully, and her eyes and those of the reporter met, before she went in through the side door.”

Recall that a similar report by UK media outfit International Business Times (IBTimes UK) said although President Muahammdu Buhari is said to be in London, his whereabouts in the European city has remained a mystery and it could not confirm the report.

The presidency has maintained that President Buhari is in the UK and released several pictures of him with various visitors and family members but no media house has been able to speak with him.

So what is going on here is the question on everyones lips

Buhari is just a stubborn person, his advisers must have advised him to have a media chart with atleast a very friendly media organization like the way the ailing Dieziani charted with Dele Momodu sometimes back. This will go a long way to curtail rumors about him being in a vegetative state.

If the Nigerian media engaged in investigative journalism instead of cash and carry journalism they should have been able to track exactly where Buhari is in London irrespective of the security at Abuja House.

dont you ipods have work to do? Disturbing the peace of the land,
Buhari said you should give him a longer time to rest and you shouldnt be worry.
But now you dont have peace becos you are craving to know if your fellow human being is dead.
And you dont bother about your own death.
