U.S President-elect, Donald Trump's inauguration will hold later today, and the presidency has reacted to why President Muhammadu Buhari was not invited to the historic event.
Trump & Buhari
Former director of New Media of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Deji Adeyanju took to his Twitter on Thursday, and disclosed that U.S President-elect, Donald Trump has snubbed President Muhammadu Buhari and invited Goodluck Jonathan to the American presidential inauguration slated for later today, Friday, 20th January.
In a swift reaction to the above statements and the viral reports making rounds online, the presidential senior special assistant on media and publicity, Garba Shehu, took to his social media account to address the rumours, giving reason why the president was not invited to America for Trump's inauguration.
We had also reported some hours ago that the outspoken governor, Ayodele Fayose, in a statement, described the non invitation to President Buhari to attend Trump’s inauguration as a clear signal that the president does not enjoy international relevance any more.
The governor wondered why the same president, who was a regular visitor to the US under Obama, was today not part of the historic inauguration of a new administration.
“No doubt, something is fundamentally wrong because if there is hope of a future relationship between President Buhari and the new US President, they would have been celebrating his inauguration and would not have allowed Nigerians to hear any other news apart from Buhari going to America. Obviously, Buhari’s junketing to US that gulped $1m per trip, has come to an inglorious end,” Fayose said.
