“I saw the photograph of my son, Seyi, sitting behind. That is not acceptable. I will announce to you those people who are supposed to be here,” he said and he went ahead to read out their names.

“Special Advisers on Policy Coordination, Ms. Hadiza Usman, Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, my Principal Private Secretary, Hakeem Muri-Okunola and my Private Secretary, Damilotun Aderemi.
