He also declined to speak when asked to comment on the investigation of judges by the Department of State Services (DSS) over alleged corrupt practices.
Specifically, seven judges were arrested between Friday night and Saturday morning in raids that have been condemned by lawyers and Nigerian rights groups.
The former president last visited the Villa in July.
