The Presidency said Wednesday that the reoccurring activities of terrorists in the country would not stop President Muhammadu Buhari from honouring international invitations on issues of national interests.
This was disclosed by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, while fielding questions from State House correspondents at the end of the weekly Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting in Abuja.
Responding to a question on the desirability of the President visit to Senegal for the International Development Association (IDA) for Africa Summit, Adesina said: “Yes, the president should go because there’s an international conference meant for heads of states and presidents, he should attend. You should never give in to terrorists.
“The moment theories begin to stop you from doing things, then we might as well throw up our hands in surrender. The President should go ahead. Yes, it’s an international obligation Thank you.”
