President Muhammadu Buhari may speak by telephone to Nigerians for the first time since he embarked on a medical vacation to London, the Presidency has said.

Buhari’s media adviser, Femi Adesina responded “Yes, he (Buhari) said maybe and I also say maybe” when asked on Monday night during a live political programme on Channels TV, which was monitored by DAILY POST.

Adesina said that as the President’s spokesman, he could only transmit what was told to him.

He reiterated that until President Buhari had an “all-clear” on his health, he will not return to the country.

He further assured that President Trump will not undo all the positive agreements Nigeria had with the United States of America under Barack Obama stressing that the positive bilateral relationship between the two nations will continue. .

Adesina said: “Yes, he (Buhari) said maybe, he will speak to Nigerians by phone, and I also say maybe.

“That issue of his coming back is already in the public domain in the letter that was transmitted to the National Assembly. He said as soon as he has an ‘all-clear’ on his health, he’ll be back. I think that issue has been settled

“I communicate what has been told to me. Unless I receive a definite communication that says the president will be back on this date. Then, I can say. Otherwise, I’ll just be making a guess, if I say anything that has not been said to me. Don’t forget that I’m a spokesman. I speak for somebody. I communicate what has been transmitted to me.

“Remember Trump said America will be number one, America will be number two, and America will be number three. So anything that is in the interest of American that the previous government did. I’m sure this Trump administration will continue.

“We know that governance is a continuum. I don’t think one government will come in and obliterate all the positive things that have been done by the previous administration as long as it is positive; and, in the interest of the country.”

How can you be talking of phone calls in this era of cameras ? We need a live video feed on facebook or skype even nta sef

Well, we look forward to that

TonyeBarcanista:
Well, we look forward to that

I'm sure you and your ilk would. Isn't there anything else to look forward to? Say like the conviction of Mama Piss and her hero of a husband?

A Facebook video will do all d magic, who em wan call for phone? Mtchewwwwww

Airforce1:
2 minutes telecast will do

Just 2minute

1 minute sef is okay..
He should jux send us a video shout out for 30secs. We miss his face already.

TonyeBarcanista:
Well, we look forward to that

Facebook already made life Eazi..
30secs live of Facebook won't be a crime..

The person that relayed this news must be the first son of Lucifer. I watched the Channels programme live and there was nowhere Adesina quoted Buhari as saying he'll speak to Nigerians.

The conversation went thus:

Seun: Maybe (sic) the president can speak to Nigerians from UK(ostensibly asking Adeshina if Buhari can speak to Nigerians having allegedly spoken to Trump on phone)

Adeshina: You just said maybe(laughing hysterically).

In a nutshell, Adeshina never said he spoke to Buhari on the possibility of him speaking to Nigerians. It would be a welcome development if the phone call happens in the nearest future but twisting facts to deceive the citizens is irresponsible.

Imagine... Dis ppl are jus funny.. They kip fueling speculations with their "mayb" and "mayb not". Either way d whole charade is going to definitely end soon

What is maybe... if u can talk call anytime now and don't try to perfect a voice cloning in case oh... but God forbid the incase.

I STAND WITH PMB

Don't bother my president, it will still not satisfy them. When you are strong enough return home.
