I’ve not been able to speak directly to Buhari since Lekki shooting – Sanwo-Olu

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu says he is yet to speak with President Buhari over the gunshot incident that occurred at the Lekki tollgate on Tuesday, October 20. 

 The Lagos state governor was on Arise TV on Thursday morning, October 22, where he spoke about the shootings. 

 When asked if he has spoken to President Buhari since the incident, Sanwo-Olu said 

 ''I made phone calls to the President. I made calls to want to speak with the President twice yesterday. First time he hadn't come to the office and the second time, he was at the FEC meeting so I haven't spoken to him directly but I actually did call to want to speak with him but like I said he was at FEC meeting and properly had his briefing. 

 So he was actually the one that asked the Chief of Defence Staff to call me and I think it was when he got my message because when the Chief of Defence Staff called me, he said to me it was the President that asked him to call. So I haven't spoken to him directly.

 Maybe sometime later today that might happen. I don't have a report to say this was what he said because we haven't spoken''
