Femi Adesina, ex-aide to former President Muhammadu Buhari,
has denied saying his principal regretted some of the decisions he took while
in office.
Speaking at a programme organised by the association of
veteran journalists in Osun state, Adesina had reportedly said Buhari felt
there were some things he could have done better.
"There is no living human being that will not regret
certain things. It is one of the questions I asked the president," Adesina
had reportedly said.
"Before we left office, I sat with him for about two hours and I asked him every question under the sun; there was no question I didn't ask him. There were things he felt could have been done better."
However, in a tweet on Thursday, Adesina said his statement
was misconstrued.
He said the term "regret" could only have been
imagined by "contortionists".
"Buhari regretted some of his actions as
President-Adesina, say some reports. My words: 'There's no human being that
will not regret certain things... There were things he (Buhari) felt could have
been done better.' Regret? Only in the minds of contortionists," he
tweeted.
