Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has alleged that All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Candidate is on a secret medical trip abroad.
According to th governor, Buhari is on a trip to the United Kingdom
(UK) enroute United States of America (USA) for medical treatment.
This secret medical trips, said further, show that the APC leaders, especially Senator Bola Tinubu, were covering up his (Buhari) true health status for their selfish motives.
Though a statement issued by the APC Presidential Campaign
Organisation said that Buhari was on a short working visit to the UK,
Fayose, in a statement by his Special Assistant on
Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, said the party was
not saying the truth.
The governor said, “The truth is that Buhari travelled out today to
seek medicare in USA.
“If the APC people are saying otherwise, let them publish the picture
of Buhari boarding the plane and granting interview to Aviation
Correspondents at the Abuja Airport.
“While I am happy that the APC people that are packaging Buhari
finally hearkened to my plea that they should allow him (Buhari) to
seek medicare abroad, I must say that it was evil for the APC to have
lied that Buhari travelled on a working visit.
“These APC political merchants should say the truth and save Nigeria
from the possibility of another Yar’Adua experience.
“They should tell Nigerians that Buhari is actually sick and lack
capacity to rule Nigeria and that they are only packaging him, hoping
that he will become incapacitated if he becomes president so that they
can take over power by proxy.”
While wishing Buhari speedy recovery, Governor Fayose, however asked the north and all elements hankering for a shift in power to the North to beware.
“Like I have maintained, the north should wait till 2019 to produce a
younger, energetic and healthy president of Nigeria,” the governor said.
