The Presidential candidate of the All
Progressives Congress, Maj. General
Muhammadu Buhari has denied
media reports that he was terminally
ill and was preparing to go abroad for
medical attention. Buhari spoke to
reporters at the Rivers State
Governors’ Lodge, Asokoro, Abuja, on
Sunday. Some Nigerian newspapers
and on-line publications (The Punch
not inclusive), in their Sunday
editions; reported that the former
military ruler was terminally ill and
has been flown out of the country for
medical attention. He said the reports
were orchestrated by desperate
individuals seeking to use it to gain
undue political advantage. The APC
candidate also used the occasion to
debunk allegations that his tenure at
the defunct Petroleum Trust Fund
was riddled with corruption.
According to him, his tenure at the
PTF was thoroughly investigated and
the report presented to the then
President Olusegun Obasanjo who
recently confirmed it. Buhari said, “(a
national daily) reported that I was to
jet out for medical checkup yesterday
but here I am. I was at Nasarawa and
Benue states yesterday; tomorrow I
am going to be in two states. “The
day after tomorrow, in two more
states. I am doing two states per
day. How they got the impression
that I was sick I do not know.
Although I got cold and that did not
stop me from going through my
schedule.” Commenting on medical
documents purportedly confirming
his alleged poor state of health,
Buhari said, “I don’t know of this
desperation. “The issue we are telling
Nigerians is that of corruption in this
country for the last16 years the PDP
has literally destroyed this country.
“This is the issue and what has my
health got to do with that one, have I
been sick on daily basis? And (that)
document has been put on paper, on
tweeter that I am sick and the ABU
(Ahmadu Bello University Teaching
Hospital) said they are forged
documents. This desperation is
beyond my understanding.”
When pressed to make a categorical
statement on his state of health,
Buhari jokingly asked the reporter,
“how old are you, 50 years?; I am
telling you if go to the field, you
would not last the time I will last in
the field.” On his stewardship of the
PTF, he said, “That one has been
cleared. There is no fraud in PTF,
there was an investigation and
General Obasanjo has answered that
question, he confirmed that there
was an investigation and the report
was brought to him and there was
nothing on ground as far as my
management and chairmanship of the
PTF was concerned. “So what else
can I say? The person who did the
investigation because he was the
Head of State he cleared me so what
else can I say?”

Victory is assured next month...PDP and GEJ would be walloped at the polls.

Yeah yeah, Yar'adua comes to mind.
They claimed he wasnt dead for months, while Turai was the president of Nigeria until a brave woman dared the cabal by speaking the truth.
