Pegasus Reporters Issues on the Wing
“Reuben Abati said the house they gave him in the Villa, he didn’t sleep there for one night because when he attempted to sleep there, fire just broke out. So, he ran away. I slept in my house for eight years, not only did I sleep but I was snoring. I snored so much that I woke myself up with the sound of my snores; that showed I was at peace.”

PEGASUS REPORTERS, LAGOS | JANUARY 17, 2024
Former presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina, has debunked claims by former presidential spokesman Reuben Abati that Aso Rock, Nigeria’s seat of power and official residence of the president is haunted.
Adesina, who was a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Tuesday, said he slept soundly at the Villa for eight years as spokesman for then President Muhammadu Buhari from May 2015 to May 2023.
“I didn’t see anything like that; no witches, no wizards, nothing like that in the Villa,” the veteran journalist said when asked about claims made by his predecessor, Reuben Abati, in 2016.
“Reuben Abati said the house they gave him in the Villa, he didn’t sleep there for one night because when he attempted to sleep there, fire just broke out. So, he ran away.
“I slept in my house for eight years, not only did I sleep but I was snoring. I snored so much that I woke myself up with the sound of my snores; that showed I was at peace.”
Querying claims by his predecessor, Adesina asked if Abati would have rejected his re-appointment if President Goodluck Jonathan won his re-election in 2015.
“If they had won the 2015 election and President Jonathan had asked him to continue as special adviser, he would have continued in a place that was haunted.”
Earlier on Tuesday, Adesina launched a book, ‘Working with Buhari: Reflections of A Special Adviser, Media, and Publicity (2015-2023)’ in Abuja and the event was graced by his ex-principal (Buhari); President Bola Tinubu; ex-Head of State, Yakubu Gowon, and many other dignitaries.
