President Muhammadu Buhari has been on life support since June 6 at a hospital in West End, London. The President needs prayers to surmount his health challenges.
This revelation was made known to the public by Ayodele Fayose, the Ekiti State Governor. He called on him to resign from office to attend to his health. He also called on the Presidency to be honest about President Buhari’s health status, saying it has been handled with a lot of opacity.
According to SaharaReporters, He noted that Wednesday makes it 53 days since President; Muhammadu Buhari left Nigeria for treatment abroad and there has been no official information as to his whereabouts and his state of health.
Mr. Fayose said he does not wish the President dead, the reason he claimed to have maintained a “dignified silence” since the President embarked on his second medical trip abroad this year.
He described the recorded audio message released by the Presidency as a damage control strategy, one which moved him to set the records straight with his statement.
“No doubt, the audio message was only a damage control strategy aimed at further deceiving Nigerians. The audio message does not represent the truth as our President does not only have voice impairment, he has been on life support since 6 June at a West-End, London, Hospital,” Mr. Fayose said.
He similarly claimed that the President’s wife, Aisha, was not allowed to see her husband during her last visit to the United Kingdom, but she is unwilling to admit what happened.
“Only three Nigerians, who are of the President’s cabal, are allowed access to the President. I will keep their identities for now. Anyone with a contrary claim should produce the President to Nigerians within the next 48 hours. It is obvious that Nigeria is drifting like the last days of the Yar’Adua government,” the governor said.
“Hate me or like me, again, I am putting Nigerians on notice on the present state of health of our President. Let me state that I am not unaware of the various attempts on my life. I am undaunted, as I remain committed to truth and fearlessness because a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions. It is time that the President takes the interests of Nigerians above his own and resign from office so that our country can move forward,” Mr. Fayose stated.
