The Presidency on Saturday denied  news reports  making the rounds that President Muhammadu Buhari is dead.

An online report had claimed that President Buhari died in a German hospital where he had gone for medical attention.

Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to the President on media described the news as hog wash and in his twitter hand advised those behind the wicked rumour to repent.

He Twitted, “Best wishes to all who wish PMB well. As for those who carry evil rumours, may they receive grace to repent.”

Garba Shehu, the senior special assistant on media to the President, also took to his Twitter handle to deny the report.

Shehu wrote, “He is alive and well. President Buhari is not magical. He cannot be holidaying in the UK and be in Germany, dead or alive at the same time.
