Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinShare on PinterestShare on WhatsappShare on Telegram

There has been several speculations as to why President Mohammed Buharia cancelled his scheduled visit to the South East on Thursday 22nd December 2016. The president was billed to attend the South East Economic and Security Summit held at the Enugu State Governor Lodge.

President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday said there was no truth in media reports alleging that he snubbed the recent South-East Economic and Security Summit in Enugu. Rather, he said he was advised by some stakeholders from the region not to attend on Thursday as scheduled in view of the closeness of the date to Christmas.

President Muhammadu Buhari  Buhari made the clarification in a statement made available to journalists by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu. Shehu said Buhari was told that a presidential visit at this time of the year might be disruptive of Christmas. The statement read, “The President was presented with a request to attend the Economic and Security Summit by the Minister of Science and Technology, Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu. The President happily accepted. “The visit to Enugu was scheduled for Thursday 22nd as can be found on the weekly programme.

“After this was done, some other stakeholders from the South East came and advised him to not go in view of the closeness of the date to Christmas; that given the sensitivity of the period to the people, a presidential visit may come with over-exertion and possibly, be disruptive of Christmas.

“In view of this, President Buhari requested that the event be pushed forward to January, 2017. Given his nature, he did not insist. He said if the change of date is not possible, then the event can go on without him. That is what the organisers chose to do. “The President did not, and he absolutely has no reason to snub anyone one.
