Buhari Will Surely Handover To President-elect Tinubu – Presidency

According to the Presidency, the government is already in the transition phase and President Muhammadu Buhari is willing to transfer over to Bola Tinubu when his term ends on May 29.

Garba Shehu, the President’s Senior Special Assistant for Media and Publicity, stated in a statement on Friday.

“The Presidency wishes to denounce as outrageous and fake, and condemns the fake news brigade for attributing a false quote to President Muhammadu Buhari and circulating it,”

“How can you vigorously campaign for somebody, vote for him and then say you won’t hand over to him? This beggars belief.”

Shehu described the premise presented by an online medium as “pretty pathetic” adding that its ownership is “politically partisan in today’s politics, in fact a loser in the presidential election”.

He alleged that instead of talking about issues, the platform repeatedly sold lies in the hope that people believe them as truth.

“The government is already in transition phase. The Transition Committee, made up of representatives of the outgoing administration and the incoming one is meeting on an almost daily basis planning the handover to the Tinubu/Shettima administration,” he said.

“Thirteen committees as offshoots of the main committee, some, to arrange military drills and pulling out of President Buhari, are either all at work or soon to be. So far, everything is going very well and there is no indication of any hitches.”

Shehu added that the Daura community has begun their preparations to receive their son back after the “successful administration of the country for two terms of eight years.”

For his part, Buhari is eager to return home to enjoy his retirement, the presidential spokesman said.
