President Muhammadu Buhari was on Wednesday sworn-in for a second term alongside the Vice President, Yemi Osinabjo at the Eagle Square Abuja, Igbere TV reports.
Our correspondent at the event observed that after taking his oath and partaking in other ceremonies, Buhari failed to deliver any speech to Nigerians.
The oath of office was administered on the Nigerian leaders by the acting Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Ibrahim Tanko Muhammad.
His refusal drew wide reactions and condemnation from opposition politicians.
Igbere TV learnt that the president failed to deliver any speech because of the forthcoming Democracy Day.
An impeccable source said Buhari’s inaugural speech would be delivered on June 12 during the Democracy Day.
Igbere TV recalls that the Federal Government had shifted major events for the president’s inauguration to June 12.
“The president’s inaugural speech was not meant for the swearing in,” the source added.
