Former chairman of National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), Prof. Chidi Odinkalu, has mocked the national chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, after the latter on Wednesday breached protocol at the inauguration of President Muhammadu Buhari for a second term in office.
Mr Oshiomhole had joined the line of dignitaries to receive the President on his arrival at Eagles Square at about 10 am in red-carpet reception.
Among dignitaries who were on official list to receive Mr Buhari were the Senate President, Bukola Saraki; Speaker of House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara; Acting Chief Justice Of Nigeria (CJN), Tanko Muhammad, among others.
Oshiomhole was approached politely by a military officer to leave his position beside the acting CJN and return to his seat.
In a tweet Wednesday, Odinkalu knocked Oshiomhole for his actions which he described as ‘conceited’.
“So, Adams Oshiomhole is too conceited to realise that Inauguration is a State occasion not a party event?” Odinkalu said.
