Rats ‘chase out’ President Buhari from office, to work at home

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Shehu Garba, has said that president’s office needed renovation because of its devastation by rodents during the president’s long period of absence.



“Following the three months period of disuse, rodents have caused a lot of damage to the furniture and the air conditioning units,” he told THISDAY, explaining that it was impossible for his boss to operate from the office in that condition.

Mr Garba, however, said this would not affect the effectiveness of Mr Buhari’s work since the residence has an annex to the office.

He added that the president had been carrying out his duties from home since he resumed.

The president had Monday morning met with Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo and other senior aides, including the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, at his official residence, where he signed a letter informing the National Assembly that he had resumed duties.

The president’s decision to work from home got a nod from the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, John Odigie Oyegun, who said it was in order, explaining that what was important was that the president would do his job.

“What is important is that the job gets done. Whether he does it from his bedroom, or his sitting room, or his ante room, it does not matter. Let the job be done. And the job will be done,” he told ARISE TV on Monday.
