He pointed out that the President is bound to attend to the document in just a matter of hours, more-less, he stressed that it could even happen today or tomorrow, but within a month.
“It could be today, it could be tomorrow, it could be anytime, but within the 30 days. In a matter of hours, not days. Hours could be 24 hours, could be 48 hours; not days, not weeks.” He revealed.
His Special Adviser earlier explained that there are some vested interests and some cheap political tactics deployed by some persons to make it seem like Buhari is delaying the signing process.
