Former Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, Garba Shehu, has said he won't return to work for former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
According to the former presidential aide, he remains loyal to Buhari even after leaving office.
Shehu made this known when he appeared for an interview with TVC News programme: Beyond The Headlines, on Thursday.
He said: “Let me tell you, if you have integrity and I’m not pretending that I have, people should judge for themselves.
“I think a man should serve only one master at a time. You can’t serve two masters at the same time, otherwise, you are deceiving yourself or them.
“I’m currently with Muhammadu Buhari, however, if you are looking to make an example of me with some of the characters you just mentioned, I’m not in that mode.
“When I speak for Buhari these days, I do so out of commitment for a leader who gave me his absolute trust and I feel that he needs my support, otherwise, I would have done like others did, walk away and start something else.
“But I’m happy that I’m still on his side and he is not as active politically as you had before, certainly not as president.
“Even the statements we make on his behalf, you can see that they are very occasional and specific as we don’t want to meddle in issues, otherwise, people will think that there are two presidents in a country.
“The only president at the moment is President Bola Tinubu and Buhari will not be contesting the space with him.”
