 Friends of the special advice on media and publicity to President Muhammad Wari, organized a farewell party to honor him for his years of service to his nation as he leaves the office for the next dispensation. The event which was organized in legal sweetness eulogies of Mr. Fermi Adishinau from family and friends. Our correspondent Paul George was there. Lovable, down to earth, conscientious, thoughtful, these are some of the words used to describe Fermi Adishinau. The special advisor on media and publicity to President Muhammad Wari in a celebration that is also interactive. Questions are thrown at the man they all simply call Fermi about his experience in government. So morning to night I couldn't sleep, my phone was ringing, it's back to us, back to us, back to us. It didn't go out, it didn't ask if I woke up, it was out of my hand. Because I wanted to say now that I am a good person. It's surprising to me. After it got better, it was and I have nothing in it now. That's just you there. All that so. Adishinau was being vocal against perceived tantrums thrown at his boss and the administration. Gives thanks to God but is quick to say his principal, President Buhari, detests when lies are in an effort to defend him and his policies. I've never seen it. In Haiti as a developer, I didn't see all the Ruben mentioned. I never experienced one of them. But like they say, it's different strokes for different folks. For years, eight years, there is always a time to return. So don't get to the villa and let it get into your head and you become another person. Remain who you are. The principal I saw, President Buhari, does not expect you to lie for him. You'll be surprised if you lie on his behalf. He's the one that will come out one day and expose you. So there's no need to lie. Just say the truth, the whole truth at all times. It was a huge sacrifice, but I'm happy I did it. His friends of many decades recount their experiences with Mr. Adishinau. They say he's a jolly good fellow. When your job is to communicate with the public and to explain the actions of government, people who receive that, you have those who are neutral, you have those who have taken sides, and you have those who are for you. You look at what Femi has done, as required of him as a spokesperson. I think he's done very well. He kept his friends and everyone was here today, happily celebrating him as somebody we are proud of for his service to the country. In most climes, especially in Nigeria, you honour people when they come into office because you have expectations of benefiting from whatever ledges or patronage that can come out of that relationship. But we are celebrating him when he's going out of office. We are celebrating him that through thick and thin, we are friends. We identify with you. He was a representative of each and every one of us. And I think he acquitted himself very, very well and we're very proud of his service. When he was in Concord and he had to allow us to have a column on page four for what we call what I do about books that are talking about breast cancer would kill two people. And then the second one was when I was when I was repackaging for Tairulindola, the legend musician. And he was there for us to celebrate and a thank God for him that he went into that place for each year and came back with integrity in time. A thank God for him, a blessing and we wish him the best. Another friend and colleague of Mr. Adeshinno, Lekon Ogumbawu, commends him for meritoriously serving the nation and for being himself. No matter how effective you are, you will leave the office. But if you don't leave the office, the office will leave you. Right? And if you forget all those of your friends, when you come out of that office, thank you for being with me. Madam, thank you for holding him strong. Thank you for giving him rope. And to say thanks for being your father's daughter. Femi, thank you for making us proud. Femi Adeshinno, who wears the officer of the order of the Niger OON, is a foremost journalist who has worked in different capacities, both in print and electronic media. He moves to the next phase of his life after the Buhari administration exits on May 29. Paul George, Plus TV News.
