Personal Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, on Friday said the relationship between the President and the Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, will remain cordial beyond 2023.
Onochie stated this via updates posted on her Twitter and Facebook pages, in reaction to Femi Fani-Kayodeโs remarks criticizing Osinbajo for saying Buhari treats him like a son.
She wondered how Osinbajoโs statement that Buhari treats him like a son โhas become a source of anger and anxiety for Femi Fani-Kayode.โ
Onochie expressed surprise that Fani-Kayode could not understand โfather/son relationship, respect, decency and loyalty,โ saying, โNo he canโt. He doesnโt possess the capacity to even begin to comprehend any sort of relationship. None!โ
She added that nobody can create enemity between Buhari and Osinbajo, as the bond they shared was personal.
โAs it was in the beginningโฆ So it is nowโฆAnd so shall it be till 2023 and thereafter,โ she wrote.
If Buhari decides to contest for a second term with Osinbajo in 2019 and wins, their second tenure is expected to expire in 2023.
