Presidency plays down calls for Buhari’s resignation

The minister of information and culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed says the president, Muhammadu Buhari, will not resign as being canvassed in some quarters.

The senate minority leader, Eyinnaya Abaribe, had called on the president to resign, if he could not guarantee a safer Nigeria.
