"I do not have an adopted son" -Former Head Of State Muhammadu Buhari




Former military Head of State, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari has debunked the report that says he has an adopted son who was recently involved in a N20m scam.

A statement issued by Mr. Jasper Azuatalam on Vanguard Sunday night on behalf of  Buhari denied ever knowing the said Muhammed and said he had no reason to adopt any son as God has blessed him with both male and female children.

In some of the statement released, it says:
“Gen Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) wishes to state categorically that he does not have any adopted son called “Muhammed Buhari” and had no need to adopt a son at any time having been blessed with choice children, both male and female. “Muhammadu Buhari and his family do not know the said “Muhammed Buhari” who is alleged to be involved in a N20m scam and is being held by the EFCC as reported by Saharareporters”

  “It is regrettable to note that after several unsuccessful attempts to smear the hard earned respect, popularity, dignity, and enviable image of Muhammadu Buhari, mischief makers have resorted to a laughable tactic of linking Muhammadu Buhari to a crime just because someone who has been alleged to have committed a crime somewhere bears the name ‘Buhari’.
Azuatalam urge Nigerians to disregard the reports, saying the former head of state and his family will never be caught in a scam related issue and it’s only an attempt by mischief makers to smear his image.
