Photo: Tolani Alli.The Presidency has taken a swipe at those criticising President Muhammadu Buhari for holding a political meeting in the chamber of the Federal Executive Council at the State House in Abuja.

He said, “It is necessary that we put records in their correct perspective concerning the recent meeting held by the National Executive Committee of the All Progressives Congress, APC, which has, unfortunately, drawn criticism due to lack of understanding. “Just for the sake of the argument, this meeting, we say emphatically, was not convened at the Council Chamber. It was virtual, not a physical meeting,” Shehu stated.

He added that most of the NEC members, state party leaders, and members of the National Assembly were all linked through video conference calls. Shehu insisted that the President made a wise decision because he wanted to curtail the spread of coronavirus .
