Femi Adesina, Spokesman to President Muhammadu Buhari has said that the President cannot speak on every issue brought to his attention.
He said that if the President does that, he would become a talkative.
Speaking to Channels Television’s Seun Okinbaloye about reasons President Buhari has not spoken about the security situation in the country, Adesina said that, “It is not that the president hasn’t spoken, because a number of times, the president has spoken on the issue and his position has always been the same.
“Anybody, whoever he is, that carries arms unlawfully should be arrested and prosecuted.
“The president has said it countless times. No matter who he is, where he comes from, criminality is criminality, anybody bearing arms unlawfully must be arrested and prosecuted.
“Every statement is categorical. Anything the president says is categorical, soy don’t need to ask for categorical statements again. Many times, he has spoken about this.
“When you have knotty issues like this, many solutions will be proffered; the president does not need to speak on each and every one of them.
“He does not have to. It was just an idea being proffered. It should be looked into, and then if it is a consensus, it should be adopted.
“But it is not as one idea comes, the president speaks on it; another idea comes, the president speaks on it; such must be a talkative president.
“Ideas will need to be discussed and critically assessed,” Adesina said.
But it is not as one idea comes, the president speaks on it; another idea comes, the president speaks on it; such must be a talkative president. Ideas will need to be discussed and critically assessed.” he said
