Atiku explained that health facilities that cater for his health may not be available in Nigeria.

Speaking at the Arise TV Townhall debate, Atiku lamented that Nigeria’s healthcare system has limitations.

The former Vice President was asked if he would use Nigeria’s medical establishments as president to de-emphasise the use of foreign hospitals.

He said: “We have limitations; we know we have those limitations, health facilities that cater to my health may not be available.”

I think Atiku was only being honest here, but in Nigeria, people don't like honest politicians. Instead, we prefer politicians who lie to us.

However, I like how Peter Obi explained it. He said he remodeled and equipped many hospitals in his home state as governor and still uses them.

But if specialists from such hospitals refer a patient to hospitals outside Nigeria because Nigeria cannot handle that case, there's no way the patient will say NO. This is because it's a matter of life or death.

Atiku

I like your honesty

Now Nigerians understand clearly that you have no plans for them.

You think say na only you love Dubai tours? You think say you wise??

These are some of the red signs why Nigerians need to avoid these kinds of presidential aspirants @ all cost. Nigeria, avoid Atiku and Bola Tinubu.

Atiku may not bring much change in Nigeria but he would be better than Tinubu, but if Nigerians want rapid growth, vote Obi.

The President-Maj.General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) Said “Nigerians have suffered so much going abroad for medical treatment.This is not good for us & it must stop because we can’t afford it again" The President, who himself had travelled to the United Kingdom for treatment on several occasions."

https://www.google.com/amp/s/punchng.com/nigerians-cant-continue-going-overseas-for-treatment-buhari/amp/ This is the kind of hypocrites Nigerians must avoid. Not everyone can afford foreign healthcare. Besides why should leaders go to access healthcare outside this nation?

Fair enough
It's better than condemning foreign medical trips only to become Chief medical tourist in office

But Atiku should also know it's a slap on Nigeria for an aspiring President to say he won't be patronizing our health system. A country that can afford and maintain 20 PJs for the president should be able to afford and maintain 1 world class hospital for the president.
Our leaders should try to be patriotic in their reasoning and not only adopt patriotism when it suits their whims.

Stop confusing yourself here. Drop support for your regional candidate (PETER OBI) embrace your fulani master.

seriously bro...but others can die na.....stupid set of criminals.

Imagine Brazilian President receiving medical services in UK or US. How many Nigerians can afford traveling out for health services that's not available in Nigeria. So we should not expect improved health care industry from you people to cut the long story short.

We know it already Even without saying it out

I admire his honesty but this is a red flag. If you as the president can't be knowledgeable enough to improve the health care sector, same time importing the said equipment for your health, which will not only be enjoyed by you but by others by extension, then you have no plan for the country u tend to lead.

Shalom

What Atiku is saying in plain terms is that all he promised in his manifesto regarding the ministry of health & the Nigerian healthcare sector na wash! Na so dis one wan bring Nigerians out of poverty ni??

He is being sincere and I love his sincerity. Come rain come shine my vote na for Atiku

Don't you feel ashamed saying this? A presidential candidate,a former Vic president wants to continue medical tourism and we should celebrate? Ok when will our hospital be equip enough to care for our politicians? Or we citizens should fix it ba? Have some shame abeg.

Why does Obi use UK hospitals?

Obi loves foreign hospitals.

Waziri Adamawa is my man for 2023 !

He is not competent.
Any serious minded president should be able to address the limitations in our hospitals he talked about within six months.

Atiku should go to dubai and be their president.

I love Atiku for one thing. He is always honest in answering his questions. He cannot pretend or lie like Peter obi.

When Buhari was referred abroad by his doctors you guys were abusing him but Peter Obi can be referred abroad by his doctors and there is no problem right
These una hypocrisy can never make me support anything you guys support (I know the people I'm talking about).

Buhari doesn't use Nigerian hospital facilities at all, not even his Aso Rock clinic that he fraudulently budgets millions of naira for.

Besides, he has been president for 7 years without thinking of providing in Nigeria such skills and facilities that take him to the UK hospital every now and then.

On the other hand, Peter Obi is a man who cares about his reputation and feels he owes the public explanation for what he does.

Furthermore, Peter Obi runs public offices like a private business. Every kobo spent is accounted for and he cannot be seen wasting public funds on things that can be replicated in this country.

In one hospital Peter Obi rehabilitated and equipped in Anambra, he found out that certain procedures couldn't be performed in Nigeria and asked the Nigerian doctor in the US who does it over there how much it would cost to equip the hospital and do the same in Nigeria.

When the budget was given, he provided money for it and the hospital now has state-of-the-art facilities and can perform the procedures in the Nigerian hospital. It's an insult to Peter Obi to compare him with Buhari.

This is why people who know him will do anything to see him win this election and fix this dysfunctional country.

If this explanation is not good enough for you, then you must be a sick urchin who needs mental evaluation.

On the other hand, Peter Obi is a man who cares about his reputation and feels he owes the public explanation for what he does.

In fact, that man runs public offices like a private business. Every kobo spent is accounted for and he cannot be seen wasting public funds on things that can be replicated in this country.

You just wrote gibberish there, no sense whatsoever. I don't know if you are being deceived or you are one of those deceiving our gullible youths. Time will tell.
