The Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, has given an explanation to why the white pigeons' President Buhari released during the Armed Forces Remembrance Day celebration in Abuja last week, refused to fly.
Mr Adesina in an article he wrote, described the refusal of the Pigeons to fly as a 'natural phenomenon'. Part of the article reads; The pigeons had been kept in a cage. For how long, I do not know. And when birds and some other roaming animals have been circumscribed for a while, they get accustomed to their new status as lawful captives. Therefore, when you offer them freedom, they first baulk, thinking it’s too good to be true. It’s a natural phenomenon. President Buhari opened the cage that held the pigeons, about a score or so. One hesitated, then flew, followed by another. The others temporised a bit. And then, two, three minutes later, they all took to the sky. Nothing extraordinary in the development, you would think.”
