Adesina said that persons claiming that Buhari’s old age was affecting his actions were disparaging God, noting that “old age is an inexorable fact of life.”
According to him “On whether age is a problem to the President, there is nobody age does not catch up with, and it is an inexorable fact of life.
“But whoever would grow old must respect hoary hairs. When you disparage old people, you are actually disparaging God, who has created different seasons of life.”
The Presidential adviser told the Punch that the plan of the government is to hand over the war against corruption to Nigerian.
He said the government need people as allies in the battle against graft, noting that Buhari would be happy to see Nigerians take up the crusade against corruption.
He added, “I agree that Nigerians should take over the anti – corruption war, because that is the real intention.
“They should own the war, and see it as their own, not because government has failed, but because government needs them as allies.
“A war that would transcend the lifetime of a government is the one that has been imbibed and accepted by the people.
“It is not a one – man show, and President Buhari would be very happy to see people take over the anti – corruption crusade.
“It is a baton he would love to see handed from generation to generation.”
