Buhari becomes first Nigerian president in history to stay at US president's official guest house

President Buhari, who left for the US this morning, will be staying at the Blair House in Washington D.C during his US visit, according to the presidency. He will be the first Nigerian president ever to stay in the house which is the US President's official guest house.

An invitation by a sitting US President to stay in this historic guest house is regarded in America as an honor of highest significance. When visiting leaders reside here, the flags of their nations fly proudly over Blair House, a courtesy that serves as both a gracious welcome and a symbol of the home’s crucial role in diplomatic relations. SSA to Buhari on media & publicity, Shehu Garba shared the photo of him and another Nigerian standing in front of the historic building. More after the cut

  8. All in a bid to get him to approve same sex marriage law in Nigeria.He is not hosting him there for any other special reason if not for same sex marriage rubbish and that is the reason why they kicked out Goodluck Jonathan and refused to support his fight against Boko Haram.

  15. ut Obasanjo and Bush talked about other more bilateral issues at a later session with Bush after the Rose Garden event. Having first retired to the Blair House where he was being hosted, Obasanjo later returned to White House and by early afternoon on Friday he had completed his bilateral discussion with US President Bush.

  22. This so called bloody SA should stp disgracing us. So instead of him to concentrate on making the President's visit a fruitful one diplomatically, he went there to be snapping selfies. Why are our leaders so foolish and dumb.
    We have issues like insecurity, corruption, disrespect to the rule of law etc and he should be thinking of how to use this golden opportunity with the US to make the best for the nation rather than bragging with the hotel.
    It will be a very big SHAME if after Buhari finish staying in that hotel and ended up coming back empty handed.

Baba go slow its so loyal to Obama an o yes member.Obama will so use baba go slow.Tufiakwa

    ReplyDelete
  74. This league of cattle rearers will not cease to amuse me. Baba go slow can sleep on the same bed with Obama for all I care. He should however not our increasing state of insecurity at home. It's also a good time to go with the Naira and tell Obama he PA Buhari will not return back to Nigeria till Obama ensures one naira exchanges for 1 dollar. After that he can oblige Obama any request including accepting to introduce gay marriage to North East and North West. Safe trip my clueless and overwhelmed president

  79. It's simple.. They want 2 persuade him to pass gay bill so that gays will marry themselves in Nigeria since Gej refused to listen to them. .. you people should stop hyping America cos that country is doomed.... I pity the people raising their kids there cos it's common 4 a woman to turn to a man over there and vice versa.... men marrying each other and vice versa.. doomed country

  83. Let him not stay there and accept gay marriage bcos of guest house accomodation.

  84. I'm really afraid for Nigeria. No country has married America and remained the same... is change going to come at the expense of our values and beliefs... this is what happens anytime America wants to play the hero..

    Did someone actually type this trash and send to Linda? There are 1billion and one things wrong with this country, trust me people are not concerned with where he sleeps or what it portends, that is for your political analysts to bandy around and waste tax payers money dishing out 12th century on.

  102. On one hand i'm happy that this honour has been accorded a nigerian president. On another hand, m honestly so sceptical and uncomfortable that it's the same obama that is supporting Iraq, same Obama that legalised gay marriages and abortion, is giving us this 'honour'. Buhari please keep your eyes, ears, nose and mouth sef open, please dnt sign the one that will bring issues to this country more than we already have. They might not make it so obvious, buh they are not happy that the largest black Country in the world is against gay marriages.
    And please dnt forget, America NEVER gives anything free of charge, they give u an arm, they collect your brains from you. Go well o.

  105. Prelude to being coerced into embracing same-sex marriage. Make them believe they are important than throw the killer punch. All of a sudden Nigeria becomes a beautiful bride because an ex despot was aided into power with the help of a calculated media campaign. Oga presido, thread softly o. America has this reputation of deliberately breeding enemies by first setting them up as friends. Watch ya back boss
