Senior Special Assistant to President Buhari on Media and Publicity,
Femi Adesina, says it is only President Buhari that can disclose the
type of ailment that he is currently suffering from. Adesina said this
when he spoke to state house correspondents in Abuja today. He said we
should believe what President Buhari said that there is no cause for
alarm
Don’t you know that the Hippocratic Oath even forbids a doctor from
speaking about the condition of his patient except the patient
authorises it? It is only the patient himself who can speak about what
he is going through. This is the person going through these series of
tests and rest and he says no cause to worry. Let us believe that" he
said
He says it is what President Buhari tells him to say to Nigerians that he says.
"I speak for somebody. I do not speak for myself. So it is what he tells
me to say that I say and the statement transmitted to me is that the
president needs to rest for some further time”.
Reacting to allegations that President Buhari has lost his voice due to his ailment, Adesina said
"Those people need to prove it. He spoke with President Trump. Did Trump
say he did not speak with Nigerian President. Anybody can allege
anything. My message to Nigerians is that let us learn to believe our
leaders. This is a man we elected into office and he says no cause to
worry, let us believe him".
