President Barack Obama was reportedly dissatisfied by the entire lack of preparation by President Muhammadu Buhari and his entourage during the state visit to the USA.
The source of Examiner.com anonymously said: ”May be we are not reading from the same script, but the overall message by Barack is that they should go get themselves together, then get back with us”.
”We are just being polite about this because your President doesn’t seem to understand a whole lot about government,” another source in the White House added.
President Obama was disappointed that Buhari’s team had no presentation about working with America to save Nigeria’s crumbly economy.
The web-portal noted one more blunder made when Nigerian leader, in defense of his cabinet-selection postponements, published an op-ed in Washington Post, mistakenly blaming the White House of similarly delaying his cabinet selection in the initial stage of taking office.
”I don’t know where he got that information. I am still trying to come in terms with the rationale of the above statement in the said article other than the fact that President Buhari has gone to press to lie against his host in a bid to justify his dictatorial rule over Nigeria”, said Oshiokpekhai Utu-Orbih, a Nigerian attorney and writer based in the United States.
It would be recalled that President Buhari held talks with his American counterpart on terrorism and further plans to foster greater economic ties between both nations on July 20, Monday.
He also met with Nigerians in the Diaspora in the United States and his former classmates.
