Naomi Campbell Claims Buhari Invited Her To Lagos, Presidency Denies
By coincidence or careful planning, the President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari met with British born model, actress and singer, Naomi Campbell today during his 2-day visit to Lagos.
He also took a tour of the ongoing Eko Atlantic City construction project.
Campbell, immediately took to her Twitter page to celebrate meeting the President.. But then she claimed she was invited by the president of the country to the private launch of Eko Atlantic.
She wrote: “Was a pleasure to be invited by His Excellency The President of The Federal Republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari to the private launch of Eko Atlantic…”..
..and this was immediately debunked by the President’s PA on New Media, Bashir Ahmaad, who wrote on Twitter: “For the sake of clarity, President @MBuhari didn’t invite Ms. Naomi Campbell to any event during his 2-day visit to Lagos State. They only met at the Eko Atlantic City while Mr. President was touring the project, and she requested to take photos with him.”
Moments later, Campbell deleted her tweets, and changed it to: “Was a pleasure to meet His Excellency The President of The Federal Republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari to the launch of Eko Atlantic. HERE FOR ARISE FASHION WEEK ???????”
