Nobody asked us to submit questions - Reuben Abati opens up on media chat with Tinubu

Reuben Abati, a former presidential spokesperson, has revealed that during a recent media chat with President Bola Tinubu, no questions were submitted by the media team beforehand, contrary to usual practice. In an interview on Arise TV, Abati expressed his disappointment with the event's organization, noting that the interaction was not a true media chat but rather a monologue by the President. He criticized the lack of engagement, stating that the event did not allow for the kind of probing questions that would typically challenge the President on policy issues, economic conditions, and other critical matters. Abati suggested that this approach undermines the essence of media interactions, which should facilitate accountability and transparency. He also mentioned that the media team's failure to submit questions in advance was a significant departure from protocol, potentially indicating a broader issue with how the administration handles media relations.
