The Governor of Ogun State, Senator Ibikunle Amosun has stated that his relationship with President Muhammadu Buhari has nothing to do with politics.
The governor was one of the first persons to have reportedly visited Buhari in United Kingdom during his vacation.
In an interview with Sun Newspaper, the governor said: “I must say that my relationship with President Buhari is not even about politics. I have known him way back, even before all my leaders. We have been together. He is like a father to our family.
“Anything he is doing I am there and anything we are doing, he is also there. So, it has nothing with politics; it is just like a family thing. But you know, people will want to read politics into everything."
According to the governor, President Buhari’s integrity and lack of interest in material things made him worthy of emulation, and was the attracting force binding them together.
He added, “Well there is something anybody will not take away from him; his integrity. He walks his talk. Nobody will say Buhari is a corrupt leader; he is unassuming and he carries himself with no airs and doesn’t bother himself about material things.
“That is one thing that is worthy of emulation. That alone, maybe, is what I really like in him.”
