Special adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on media and publicity, Femi Adesina, has said the president did not miss anything in his nationwide broadcast on Thursday.

Adesina claimed that the Lekki shooting was contained in Buhari’s broadcast.

He disclosed this when he appeared on Channels Television on Friday evening where he noted that former President Olusegun Obasanjo commended Buhari during the meeting with ex-Heads of State.

He pointed out that the president’s message to the international community was on Lekki shooting, contrary to the belief that Buhari did not talk about the tragic incident in Lagos.

“It was not omitted. That message to the international community was on Lekki shooting,” the presidential spokesman insisted.

“It is not true. Somewhere in that speech, the President spoke to the international community. He thanked those who had sought understanding before they made comments.

“He was also telling those who were hasty in their judgement to seek more information. He didn’t miss out on anything.”

Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday addressed Nigerians following the escalation of the End SARS crisis across the country.

However, the President’s speech received a wide range of criticism as many people lacked the needed ingredients to calm the tension in the country.
