Why we won't release Buhari's audio call with Trump - Presidency

The Presidency has said that it will be “undiplomatic” to release President Muhammadu Buhari's telephone conversation with President Donald Trump of United States as requested by some quarters.


The Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu said releasing an audio containing telephone conversation between two presidents is highly unethical and against modern day civilisation.

He said, “No, I don’t think so; I don’t think it is permitted in international diplomacy. I think if we had recorded Mr Trump in this conversation it would have offended our diplomatic relations.

“I think the Americans themselves would not have recorded this conversation of president to president.”

Shehu, who noted that there was no enough time for the two presidents to discuss other continental and international, however, expressed optimism that the conversation would boost the bilateral relations between Nigeria and the U.S.

He said, “Well, there wasn’t enough time to talk about everything. I think the point at what will follow is in the invitation that President Trump has extended to our president (Buhari) to come over.

“That is the kind of opportunity that was presented to Nigeria put all the issues on the desk.

  2. And what a f**k is the big deal in Trump calling or not calling PMB?! I think it's high time we gave ourselves some common sense here.
    No matter how small a father might look, he's still the head of his family. Trump is the President of the United States while PMB is the President of Nigeria.
    The way you present your father is exactly the same way outsiders will carry him.
    All these noise over Trump calling PMB or not doesn't hold any meaning to me. It's baseless & senseless! Let's move on to more important issues I beg.
    The fact remains PMB is a respected leader world over, wether Trump calls him or not.
