President Muhammadu Buhari has said that he did not sign any agreements with United States President Donald Trump during his meeting with the US president but only had discussions with him. Nigerian Tribune reports that the president met with his US counterpart at the White House on Monday, April 30, during which they spoke on issues of mutual interest to their two countries.

AprokoGirl.com gathered that while answering questions in an interview with the Hausa Service of the Voice of America (VOA) on Tuesday, May 1, Buhari expressed concern about what the America president was told about the killings in the country. Asked if he signed any agreements with his host, he said: “No agreements, just discussions. The first one is the information being given to them that Christians are being killed in Nigeria, but what happened in the Church also happened in the southeast and the North and they just say it is herdsmen that are killing them.

“Those making these allegations against the herdsmen know that herdsmen, as we know them only carry sticks, going about with guns, is a new thing and those making the allegations know that conflict between farmers and herders has a long history even before we were born. “Therefore, it is wrong to say the conflict is between Fulani and Tiv or other tribes like in Taraba. What of Zamfara, where more people were killed than in Taraba and Benue put together? People need to understand that it is mischief that makes people to bring in religion or ethnicity.”

Speaking on the necessity of his visit to the US, the president affirmed that Trump recognized the importance of the war against terrorism that Nigeria was prosecuting and had duly authorized the sale of military equipment to Nigeria. He said: “The US government understands the importance of Nigeria in Africa and the World at large. For instance, during Obama era, we tried to get some jets to help us in the fight against terrorism in the northeast which was declined.

“But as soon as President Trump came into office, he gave the green light and advised us to make funds available. He said the US will sell the jets to us; we had each approached Brazil and the UAE, but they told us that based on the agreement they had with the US, they cannot sell or give anyone these jets until the US agrees; but the US refused at the time until the arrival of Trump who granted our request and gave us price.”

The president spoke of additional measures to tackle the security problem in the country, noting that he had directed the police authorities to recruit 6,000 more personnel across all 774 local government areas in the country.

He added: “Measures being taken is to increase the number of police officers and to equip them well. I have asked the Police to recruit 6000 more personnel and that they should recruit across the 774 local government areas in the country instead of going to Motorparks and markets to just pick people anyhow.”

The senator representing Sokoto north senatorial district, Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, described the recent allegation that he and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso misappropriated N18 billion while they were governors as maliciously fictitious.

 Leadership reports that Wamakko who was Sokoto state governor between 2007 and 2015 said he has never owned N1 billion in his life, let alone N1.5 billion he was accused of stealing.

 Speaking to journalists in Sokoto regarding the allegation, Wamakko said, “I have never had N1billion in my life. I am not a rich man. I don’t keep money.’’

He said the petition was not from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) but from some merchants of falsehood.

 According to him, “It was part of the ceaseless but abortive evil machinations of a failed politician who thinks that Wamakko should never breathe and live.

 ''The frail, failed, ungodly politician and his unpatriotic mercenaries want to bring Wamakko down. It is the Almighty Allah that made Wamakko what he is now and He is the only one who can bring him down,’’ he charged, asserting, “I have never stolen any money.”

He said he had served the Sokoto State meritoriously, honestly, diligently and transparently. He challenged the authors of the allegations to publish the details of such financial transactions in the newspapers, to corroborate their claims.

 The EFCC, he said: ''Is a reputable agency that has officials with respect and decorum, who will never use uncourteous and unethical language like the one used in the publication.”

 On his relationship with President Muhammadu Buhari, Wamakko said, ''We meet regularly to discuss vital national issues and there has never been a time when my request to see him was turned down.'' 

The incident happened on Sunday, October 29, at the ‘Gawon Nama' collapse.

 The special assistant on media and publicity to the Wamakko who was also a former governor of Sokoto state, Bashir Mani said the Senator described the incident as an act of God.
