Bashir Ahmad, personal assistant on new media to President
Muhammadu Buhari, has dismissed rumours claiming that he used the presidential
jet for his wedding.
Ahmad tied the
knot with Naeemah Junaid Bindawa, his lover, in Katsina state, on Friday.
Hours after the occasion, a report had circulated online
accusing Buhari of abusing power by deploying the presidential jet for his
aide’s wedding.
But in his reaction on Twitter, the presidential aide said
the report was not a true picture of what actually happened.
He said contrary to the report, he traveled alongside his
friends to Katsina for the wedding by road and also returned to Kano via the
same means afterwards.
Ahmad added that he also departed for Abuja with his friends
by road when everything concerning the wedding was over.
He said the pictures of himself and his friends taken behind
the presidential jet as depicted in the said report was when they visited the
airport to receive Buhari’s representatives at the event.
“Bashir Ahmad and his friends traveled to Katsina on
Thursday by road, proceeded to Kano after the wedding on Friday and they will
leave Kano for Abuja by road after the events. This was when I led my friends
to receive President@MBuhari’s representatives at the airport,” he wrote.
