Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>President Bola Tinubu said on Tuesday that his predecessor, ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, never interfered in the selection of his cabinet or the running of his administration.<\/p>\n

Tinubu said Buhari has distanced himself from his administration since May 29, 2023, when he handed over power.<\/p>\n

He spoke during the book presentation in honour of Buhari.<\/p>\n

The book titled \u201cWorking with Buhari: Reflections of a Special Adviser, Media, and Publicity (2015\u20132023), was written by Femi Adesina, Buhari\u2019s former presidential spokesperson.<\/p>\n

According to Tinubu: \u201cAfter handing over, you (Buhari) said, \u2018I will be far away in Daura but if you need me, contact me.\u2019 I won\u2019t intrude on whatever you are doing. I won\u2019t interfere. I won\u2019t breathe down your throat.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve partnered to make democracy flourish in Nigeria. Thank you. Except when I call him (on the phone) to say, \u2018Are you living? Are you going to the farm?\u2019 you don\u2019t hear from him (Buhari), either to nominate or intrude in the cabinet or complain about issues. Thank you for being who you are.\u201d<\/p>\n
