Femi Adesina, the former Spokesperson to former President Muhammadu Buhari, has revealed that the media intentionally misinterpreted his statements during his time in office.
Adesina shared this during a media chat organized by the Association of Veteran Journalists in Osogbo on Wednesday.
He expressed that certain media organizations purposely portrayed him in a negative light and created conflicts between him and the general public simply because he held a government position.
“My biggest challenge during the eight years that I served with former President Muhammadu Buhari was the fact that a section of the media deliberately quoted me out of context.
“I eventually grew out of it and got used to the antics. Even while I had a television interview, it was turned upside down in the papers deliberately to make me an enemy of the public, but I outgrew it and it did not affect my duty throughout my tenure”, he said.
