The invitation of former Speaker of the House of Representatives, and co-chairman of the National Consultative Front, NCFront, Alhaji Ghali Na’Abba, by the Department of State Service, DSS, has nothing to do with his comment on President Muhammadu Buhari.
The Presidency made this known in a statement issued by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, describing Na’Abba as a “flash-in-the-pan politician.”
Na’Abba is billed to honour the invitation of the DSS Monday at 12 noon.
The Presidency described the linking of the invitation to Na’Abba’s comment on Buhari as a mere publicity stunt.
It called on members of the public to ignore it.
The statement reads: “Our findings have revealed that Na’Abba’s invitation has nothing to do with his alleged utterances which, in any case, did not catch the attention of the Presidency, or of any serious politician for that matter.
“There are serious politicians who talk and the Presidency responds because such politicians make statements that must get attention.
“Flash-in-the-pan politicians and those who fabricate political relevance don’t bother anyone.
“We advise Na’Abba to distance the presidency from the situation he has found himself and sort himself out accordingly.”
