President Buhari
Finally, President Muhammadu Buhari has sought for Nigerians’ understanding about issues surrounding his health.
He has said that he requires a longer time to rest, and have no need
to rush back to work.
This probably puts paid to speculations and claims
by top government officials that he is actually fit and healthy.
Buhari wrote to Nigerians through his aide, Femi Adesina
The president said this, on Tuesday, saying the rest was deserved
following the results from the series of medical tests he carried out in
the United Kingdom where he is on vacation.
The president, who noted that he is staying longer than expected in
the UK, reportedly stated this in a four-paragraph statement through his
Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.
The president, however, was full of praises to Nigerians for their
prayers, good wishes and support adding that there was no cause to be
troubled.
According to Adesina, “President Muhammadu Buhari thanks millions of
Nigerians who have been sending good wishes and praying for his health
and well-being in mosques and churches throughout the country.
“The President is immensely grateful for the prayers, show of love and concern.
“President Buhari wishes to reassure Nigerians that there is no cause for worry.
“During his normal annual checkup, tests showed he needed a longer
period of rest, necessitating the President staying longer than
originally planned,” he said.
