President Muhammadu Buhari on Sunday refuted reports making the round that part of reasons for his United Kingdom ‘private visit’ was to compile the names of those who may be appointed as ministers during his second tenure of office.

Speaking with newsmen briefing shortly after returning to Abuja after 10-day private visit to London, President Buhari said that he did not discuss the issue of the appointment of new cabinet ministers with anybody.

He said: “I didn’t discuss with anybody. So, I don’t know how they knew about it. I didn’t discuss it with anybody.’’

When asked what kind of people would make his next cabinet, the President replied: “I won’t tell you”.

On possibility of introducing fresh approach in the fight against insurgency and banditry, the president acknowledged that the acting Inspector-General of Police was doing his best to curtail the menace.

“I have just seen the IG, I think he is losing weight; I think he is working very hard,’’ he said.
