Purported Meeting Of Pastor Bakare, Minister Adeosun With Buhari Is A Lie – Presidency

Femi Adesina

The Presidency has denied a story in social media that Pastor Tunde Bakare of Latter Rain Assembly and Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun met together with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, today, Friday.

In a statement, the Presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina described the media report as “far from the truth,” saying that the minister was at the Presidential Villa in connection with the Annual General Meeting and 25th Anniversary Celebration of African Export-Import Bank (AFREXIMBANK) holding Saturday in Abuja, which would be graced by President Buhari.

“She ran into Pastor Bakare, who was on a scheduled visit to see the President, and they exchanged pleasantries. The cleric particularly thanked the Minister for finding time to attend his mother’s funeral, which took place in Abeokuta, Ogun State, penultimate weekend.

“Mrs. Adeosun had seen President Buhari not fewer than three times earlier in the week, and did not need to meet with him again on Friday.”
