President Muhammadu Buhari has revealed the reason he did not allow governors to visit him all through his 49-day medical vacation in the United Kingdom.
Apart from Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun, no governor visited Buhari during his vacation.
Speaking on Thursday at the national economic council meeting chaired by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, Buhari said he stopped governors from coming to see him because he did not want “government to move to London”.
Buhari, who went round the council chambers to greet the governors one after another, apologised to them for over the development.
He said;
“I apologise to the governors for barring visits while I was away. I didn’t want government to move to London; I wanted it to remain in Abuja and I am glad it did,”
He thanked them profusely for their display of “love and respect” to him, and commended them for working together.
The president said he was moved by how governors, irrespective of political differences charged their citizens to pray in mosques and churches for his well-being.
