interesting Buhari Withdraws Apology

Mr Enang for the president said

Mr. Enang, on Friday said the reports were a misrepresentation of his comments.
Speaking to PREMIUM TIMES, Mr. Enang said he only pleaded with senators in his personal capacity.
Mr. Obono-Obla had on Thursday allegedly questioned the authority of the Nigerian Senate to summon the Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami.
He also reportedly said the presidency had no confidence in the Senate Judiciary Committee that summoned the Attorney-General.
Mr. Malami had asked Mr. Obono-Obla to represent him at a Senate Committee meeting, that was to examine the circumstances surrounding the trial of senate president, Bukola Sakari, and his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, for alleged forgery of Senate standing rules.

“I am a presidential liaison officer and I apologize for the inability of the Attorney-General to appear before the Senate when he was invited.
“He received a letter of invitation after he had already planned an official trip,”
“I said the attorney general will meet with the chairman of the Senate committee hearing the matter,” he said.

Mr. Enang, a former senator, said he apologised on behalf of Mr. Obono-Obla because he did not want the relationship between the lawmakers and Mr. Buhari to get frostier.

“I apologise for his comments. From what I heard, he was not complimentary to the senate,” Mr. Enang said. “We didn’t need to cause more trouble between the presidency and the Senate.”
Mr. Enang, therefore, urged Nigerians to dismiss reports that his apology was on behalf of the president, saying doing so, in this case, “would be terrible”.
“The president has not apologised. It is me that is apologising for the inappropriate action of the person representing the Attorney-General.
