My only ambition was to meet Mr President- Man who allegedly attacked Buhari at Argungu festival speaks (Video)

Mohammed Jamilu Gunddare, the man alleged to have attacked the President has expressed his immense love for President Major General Muhammadu Buhari

At a press conference that took place less than 24 hours after he tried to grab Buhari, Gunddare revealed that he was attached to the President's outstanding virtues of honesty.

These were the values that promoted him to attempt to shake him at the event.

Discrediting widespread rumors that he could be arrested or tortured afterwards, the Gunddare said:

“I am alive and the DSS never tortured me; nobody ever tortured me, I was well cared for and given food. It has been my ambition to meet with Mr President. It was only a misinterpretation of events."
