A Chief White House strategist, Stephen K. Bannon has insisted that President Donald Trump did not speak with President Muhammadu Buhari as reported in Nigerian Media Stations.
Earlier when President Buhari’ s Personal Assistant on New Media, Ahmad Bashir twitted that his boss had scheduled to speak with Trump at 3:45p.m from London residence, THE PLAINTRUTH immediately put a call through to confirm but Bannon debunked the insinuation, saying there was nothing of such.
Bannon Said,”I don’t know…I don’t know. President Trump has not told me, thank you.”
Nigerian Media outlets had widely published that President Trump spoke with Mr. Buhari, quoting the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.
Adesina, in a statement released to journalists in Abuja, said “The conversation was cordial and President Buhari congratulated Trump on his election as President of the United States, and on his cabinet. The two leaders discussed ways to improve cooperation in the fight against terrorism through provision of necessary equipment.
“President Trump encouraged President Buhari to keep up the good work he is doing, and also commended him for the efforts made in rescuing 24 of the Chibok Girls and the strides being taken by the Nigerian military,.”
As of press time, THE BIAFRANEWS can authoritatively report that President Trump has not spoken to President Buhari.
