The Presidency has expelled the correspondent of The Punch, Olalekan Adetayo, from the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
The action was taken by Bashir Abubakar, the Chief Security Officer to President Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday.
The Punch had over the weekend published two materials that were regarded as the offending articles that could have led to Adetayo’s expulsion.
One was a story on the President’s ill-health, with the other being a column written by Adetayo.
Both were published on Sunday.
