Buhari Opens Up On Being Called Jibril From Sudan
President Muhammadu Buhari, has for the first time opened up on claims that he was dead and that a ‘Jibril Aminu from Sudan’ had been imported as a clone as Nigeria’s president.
President Buhari who spoke at a family get together to celebrate his 80th birthday, also opened up on his AS genotype noting how he insisted on ensuring that his second wife was AA.
Buhari who described the claim about him being ‘Jibril Aminu from Sudan’ as an expensive joke described it as a distraction from the main issues of infrastructure deficit that confronted his government at that time.
GWG.ng reports that the event marking Buhari’s 80th birthday was tagged “Celebrating a Patriot, a Leader, an elder statesman”.
Asked on being Jibril from Sudan, Buhari smilingly said:
“Yes! People said I am somebody from Sudan. I didn’t bother with the name. Nigerians have mischievous ways of explaining themselves.”
Asked how he finds such things funny, Buhari said: “No. it’s not funny because those who made those statements, just want to be cheeky. They want to distract attention from the main issue.
“Our main issue is to do the infrastructure, make people aware that they need to work hard to live well. They just want to enjoy life without earning the respect of their community and so on.”
On what he would miss when he leaves office, he said:
“I wonder if I am going to miss much. I think I’m being harassed. I believe I’m trying my best but still, my best is not good enough. Because there are people around that think that they can intimidate me to get what they want instead of going through certain systems to earn whatever they want to earn. And they are some people who want to be clever by half.”
Buhari who revealed that he lost two of his children by his late wife to sickle cell anaemia and that was why when he wanted to remarry, he insisted the second wife must be AA genotype so that his children will not inherit the S from his AS genotype.
