Presidency Reacts To ‘Leaked Audio’ Says Amaechi Was Referring To Jonathan
LAGOS JANUARY 6TH (NEWSRANGERS)-The Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Digital, New Media, Tolu Ogunlesi, has reacted to a short audio that has gone viral online, in which Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi allegedly spoke ill about the President.
Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan, posted the clip on his page.
In the short audio released by Omokri on his twitter page, Amaechi was allegedly heard saying Buhari does not listen to complaints of Nigerians, nor read comments concerning his administration.
“The President does not listen to anybody. Does he even read,” Amaechi allegedly said.
The former presidential spokesman wrote: “Nigerians hear the audio of Rotimi Amaechi’s conversation, they may weep. The man has no iota of respect for Buhari.
“In fact, he hero worshipped former President Obasanjo in the tape and said he is the only worthy Nigerian leader. They know the truth, but hide it!”
Omokri further threatened to release more audio of Amaechi criticizing Buhari if the minister does not own up to the statement.
However, Ogunlesi has taken to his Twitter page, to claim that the recording is from 2014 and was in fact, directed towards Jonathan.
“Audio from 2014 or so. At the height of Amaechi’s fight with GEJ.
“In the (paraphrased) words of Victor AD – WETIN YOU GAIN #DubaiStrategy,” Ogunlesi wrote.
