Hadi Sirika, a former aviation minister, on Wednesday denied reports linking him to the opposition coalition plotting President Bola Tinubu’s ousting in 2027.
The former Minister made the clarification when he appeared on Channels TV’s Morning Brief, saying he had no involvement in the group and will never be a part of it.
When asked to clear the air on the reports of his alleged involvement, Sirika simply said, “No, I am not.”
“Yesterday, I was with Chief Bayo Onanuga in the Presidential Villa and he said I was in the coalition. I told him I was not and never will be. He said he got that from the reports. People can join coalition, it is democracy,” he added.
Similarly, when asked to clarify the purpose of his recent visit to Aso Rock, the former Minister said the visit was to officially pay condolences to President Tinubu following the demise of the former President, Muhammadu Buhari.
He said, “The purpose of the meeting was to officially pay our condolences to the President, who did extremely well after the demise of our leader, President Muhammadu Buhari.”
