All appears well as Buhari and Saraki share a laugh at Independence Day celebration



The rumored badblood between President Muhammadu Buhari and the embattled President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki appears to be non-existent as both of them were pictured laughing and sharing pleasantries at the nation's  55th Independence Anniversary inside the Presidential Villa, Abuja.


The event was the ceremonial change of guards held at the forecourt of the seat of power.



That was the first time Saraki will be seen openly inside the Presidential Villa since he emerged the President of the Senate contrary to the choice of the leadership of the ruling All Progressives Congress.

Buhari, Saraki and Osinbajo
On his arrival at the venue of the event, Saraki took the salute and proceeded to join dignitaries who he exchanged pleasantries with before taking his seat beside a former military Head of State, Gen. Yakubu Gowon (retd.).

He thereafter engaged Gowon in a long discussion.

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo who arrived a few minutes later also shook hands with the dignitaries including Saraki before taking his seat beside the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara.

Buhari, on arrival at about 10.05am, also received the national salute.

After granting a presidential permission for the parade to proceed, the President also proceeded to the pavilion where he shook hands with the dignitaries including Saraki and took his seat between Osinbajo and the President of the Senate.

  1. Follish People who does not know what politics is all about will continue to talk without recourse. Please live politics for the politicians.
    I only pity some of you because your comments are only sentimental.
    Open your rotten mouths again and blame PMB for Saraki saga.
    Funny enough saraki must leave that seat before long. This is because of the law of our land.
