President Buhari’s Special Adviser on media and publicity, Mr Femi Adesina has stated that his the President is still accepted and popular in Borno in spite of the increased terrorist attacks in the state.
Femi Adesina stated that APC members don’t see President Buhari getting booed during a recent condolence visit to the state as rejection.
He said “We don’t see it as a rejection; if you look at those who came to welcome the president from the airport to the palace of the Shehu of Borno, it was a huge crowd. Some 90 to 95 percent were waving brooms and welcomed the president; some dissenting voices in a large crowd like that do not call for worry, its normal in a democracy. The President really, is still very accepted, still very popular and the people of Borno know what he has done; they appreciate what he has done in terms of tackling the insurgency.”
