Babafemi Ojudu, the Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on political matters, has dismissed speculations that his principal would not have acted decisively on the Tuesday’s siege on the National Assembly, just as Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo did.

“Many of you don’t seem to know President Buhari at all. He is not that kind of person (that would not act). He is a very just kind of person.

“If he was around, he probably wouldn’t have allowed this kind of thing to happen without some kind of sanctions,” Ojudu said on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Wednesday morning.

Ojudu also claimed that lawmakers elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), were inside “holding (a) meeting and even drinking whiskey”, while operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) barricaded the entrance of the complex.

“There were photos of the PDP lawmakers, about 30 of them – a mixture of senators and reps – where they sat down at the lobby, drinking whiskey,” he added.
