Boss Mustapha, secretary to the
government of the federation, on Wednesday stopped Adebayo Shittu, minister of
communications, from distributing President Muhammadu Buhari’s re-election
campaign caps at the federal executive council (FEC) meeting.
Shittu, who had the cap on his
head, brought along with him a ‘Ghana-Must-Go’ bag containing the caps which
had the inscription ‘Continuity 19: Muhammadu Buhari/Osinbajo’.
A source at the meeting revealed that Mustapha walked up to Shittu and asked him to stop the
distribution.
This was shortly before Buhari
stepped into the council chambers for the commencement of the council meeting.
Shittu later handed over the bag
to the council’s secretariat staff members, who are in charge of distributing
documents and other items used by FEC members.
The minister is the chairman of
the Muhammadu Buhari Support Group.
On Saturday, top politicians
joined him for the flagging off of Buhari’s campaign office in Ibadan, Oyo
state capital.
According to theCable, it learnt that the caps
were among the souvenirs given to guests.
Shittu’s governorship ambition
has created a friction between him and Abiola Ajimobi, governor of Oyo.
