Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has said the recent picture that surfaced yesterday showing President Muhammadu Buhari, some APC Governors and the party Chairman, John Oyegun which was claimed to have been taken at the Abuja house in London is “old and fake,” describing the said visit as a nauseating conspiracy.
Fani-Kayode stated this in an article on Monday.
According to him: “I have been reliably informed that the picture was taken in Abuja some time back and not yesterday in London.
“Quite apart from that, even though the picture was meant to have been taken in London curiously all the drinks on the table are Nigerian products and Nigerian-made.
“Did the Governors take all those drinks along with them to London when they went to see the President?
“Is Buhari not coming home soon again? Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo and some government officials told us that he would be back on the 28th of July which is just a few days away.
“Why the need for the APC Governors to “visit” him in far away London if he will be back in Nigeria in a few days?
“What was the purpose and point of this fake photo-shoot and this strange breakfast meeting? What was the purpose and objective of this monumental fraud and deceit? Whatever the answers may be to these questions the curtain must be brought down on what can only be described as a puerile and nauseating conspiracy.”
Fani-Kayode who raised many quetions in the news article challenged the presidency to offer explanation as to the reason why the Nigerian and foreign media were denied access to the meeting.
“For those who still believe that the meeting actually took place there are some nagging questions that need to be answered. For example why were the Nigerian and foreign media not allowed to cover the proceedings and participate in this celebrated photo-soot and merry London feast?
“Why did the Villa press corps not take one of their own camera men to London and make a short video of the event?
“Why was the whole event shrouded in so much secrecy? Why is it that only one picture was taken? Why were more pictures not taken? Why was Buhari not put on audio tape and recorded talking to his guests?”
