Former President Buhari is a Man of Grace – Omoboriowo
The official photographer of former President Muhammadu Buhari, Bayo Omoboriowo, has dismissed the rumour that his ex-principal is a clone—Jubril of Sudan—.
Omoboriowo stated this in an interview with Channels Television on Monday.
He said, “Former president Buhari is a man of grace. His recovery was just grace. He is not Jibrin of Sudan.”
His comment follows Adesina’s deviation in the book he wrote about the past president of Nigeria.
Adesina recalled that the day Buhari returned, he (Adesina) had earlier attended the wedding of the daughter of a former Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Gabriel Olonisakin.
“For such outings, you needed the full Yoruba agbada, with cap to match. That was what I wore. From church and reception, I went straight to the airport, as the President was billed to land about 4 p.m. And when he did, we formed the usual reception line,” Adesina wrote.
He added that Buhari shook hands with everyone, and when it got to his turn, the ex-military leader complimented him, saying, “Adesina, this is the best I have seen you dressed,” and they laughed at the joke as Buhari was fond of wisecracks.
Adesina added, “When later, some people began to spread unfounded stories that the man that returned to the country on that August 19 was not the real Buhari, but a clone, named Jubril of Sudan, I just found it preposterous, even otiose.”
