Former spokesperson to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, Femi Adesina, has hit back at the Bishop of Sokoto Catholic Diocese, Matthew Hassan Kukah, in response to his recent comments.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Adesina asserted that Kukah’s remarks stemmed from his disappointment at not receiving preferential treatment from Buhari.
Recall that on Monday, Kukah criticised the administration of President Buhari, stating that Nigeria experienced its most corrupt period during his tenure. Kukah said that corruption was not initiated by Buhari but had intensified under his watch as the then-President.
Kukah made these remarks while delivering a lecture in Ado Ekiti to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the call to bar of Aare Afe Babalola, the founder of Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti.
In response to Kukah’s comments, Adesina took to Twitter and wrote, “Who listens to that Bishop again? He’s still bitter that he didn’t receive any special treatment from Buhari, unlike in the past. As it pains them, it brings us joy.”
