I Missed Buhari’s Phone Call – Garba Shehu

The Senior Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, has revealed that he missed his principal’s phone call on Saturday.

He revealed this on his Facebook page.

According to Shehu, Buhari spoke with some members of the presidential media team in his absence, but sent him a text message afterwards.


He wrote: “A day for the Presidential Media Team. “We are thankful to the President, Muhammadu Buhari (GCFR) for sparing the time to make calls to the Media team. “The Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed and the Special Adviser, Femi Adesina responded to the calls, exchanged greetings and thanked him for calling.

“I had an SMS from him thereafter because I missed my call! I humbly join them to say thank you, Baba Buhari!! “We are together with other Nigerians of all faiths, in praying for his safe return.”

Earlier in the day, Adesina tweeted about speaking with Buhari, who thanked him for handling “mischief makers” very well.
