On Racism the president said it is the state of mind of people, individuals which a nation state cannot absolutely control. So I don’t think people should be preoccupied if somebody says ‘get away you black man’ or whatever,” said Mr Buhari.
The President must be bothered that the National Assembly had been polarised following his choice of ministers.
