The claim that President Muhammadu Buhari is shy around women, purportedly made by one Gideon Samani on Thursday is totally fallacious, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina has said.
In a statement he issued on Friday, Adesina said the attribution of the supposedly "low number" of female ministerial nominees to Buhari's alleged shyness around women was also baseless and a figment of the imagination of the said Mr. Samani.
He also said that Samani was falsely described as the "Senior Special Assistant (Political Matters) to the President.
The statement reads in part: "The assertion by the alleged presidential aide that President Buhari is "very shy dealing with the opposite sex" because "he has been interacting mostly with men" was received by the President with shock and consternation.
"For one thing, there is no Senior Special Assistant, Political Matters, in the office of the President for now and Mr. Samani who was said to have spoken as the representative of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation at a public function on Thursday, is not an aide of the President.
