Senior Special Assistant to President Buhari on Media and Publicity,
Shehu Garba, says that the elongation of President Buhari's vacation in
the UK is not an indication that he is seriously ill. In an interview
with Premium Times, Garba stated that Buhari is not very ill and also
not hospitalized
"I just spoke to the president’s personal doctor, and he told me
President Buhari is not in any serious condition as to worry about. He
is not in hospital. He is in the residence at the Nigerian High
Commission.
He and his delegation were ready to come home today
but for the delayed test result which came in today which necessitated
that he delays his return. There is nothing to worry about as far as his
condition is concerned” he said
In a separate interview with Channels TV, Special Adviser to President
Buhari on media nd publicity, Femi Adesina, says it is only President
Buhari that can disclose his medical status
"I am sure it will get to a point when the President has to disclose the
status of his health if it needs to be disclosed. If it’s something
serious enough to disclose, I am sure he will disclose it. The President
is the one who can release his own health status. The day he left, we
still spoke. He didn’t tell me ‘this is my condition". He told me he was
going to rest and he would do medicals and that was included in the
statement we released,” he said
