Aisha Buhari Told Me Buhari Was Not Terminally Ill In 2017 – Femi Adesina by Loveth160: 12:38pm On Jan 22
Femi Adesina, a former Presidential spokesman, has disclosed what the immediate First Lady, Aisha Buhari, told him about former President Muhammadu Buhari during his illness in 2017.

Adesina disclosed that Aisha Buhari told him that the president was not terminally sick, noting that he was just “overworked and stressed.”

This was contained in his just-launched book: “Working with Buhari: Reflections Of A Special Adviser, Media And Publicity (2015 – 2023).”

Adesina said the First Lady spoke to him ahead of a visit to Buhari in London in 2021.

The former presidential spokesman said he was under much pressure to declare that Buhari was incapacitated and unfit for office.

According to Adesina: “I was under a lot of barrage, particularly from the media, which expected me to declare the President either incapacitated, or dead. Waoh!

“There was this significant development, which saw us visiting the President in London, August 12, 2017. The team included the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, myself, Garba Shehu, Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa, Chairman Nigeria Diaspora Commission, and Lauretta Onochie, personal aide to the President on Social Media.


“The brain behind the visit was the First Lady, Mrs. Aisha Buhari. We spoke sparingly, but that day when the trip was being planned, my phone rang, and it was her. After exchange of pleasantries, she said: ‘My husband is not terminally ill. He is just stressed and overworked. I have been warning about it since last year.

“All he needs is rest. I spent 9 days with him, before returning to attend to some women projects. The children are with him. I think you should visit him too. You can’t be speaking for him without seeing him.’ And that was how the visit was arranged, at the behest of the First Lady.”

An acclaimed learned journalist in the person of Adesina is relying on mere words or hearsay to score some political points other than a perfectly analyzed doctors report? undecided

Femi Adesina must be deluded to think that sane people will spend their hard-earned money to buy a book about the same Buhari that threw Nigeria's economy into a mess and made sure Nigeria became the world's poverty capital. .

On second thought, people always say that people wey dey okay for this country no reach five...so the book could be a bestseller.

It seems this man makes up a lot of things in his head.
Which media wanted you to declare the president dead?
Do you even have such powers?
This man has all the makings of a sycophant

Buhari should just get away and stop insulting our National psyche !

He had infected Nigeria with terminally ill economy, corruption and misgovernance of the highest proportion.

Mumu President that confessed he doesn't know how to sack Emefiele despite the obvious corruption at the CBN.

Hardworking youths are into Yahoo scamming and the few ones are departing using towaway carbins ship to escape to Europe 🌍

Who will read Buhari book

I wonder 🤔!!

undecided

Femi Adesina isn't acclaimed and he most certainly isn't learned.

He is a 3rd rate journalist who was appointed to do a job by Muhammadu Buhari. These two men gave official approval for the unbelievable wickedness that we have going on in places like Bokkos and Barkin Ladi today.

Their day of reckoning for the blood of the innocent shed on the hills of Plateau will surely come.

I'm yet to understand exactly what point Mr Adesina is trying to prove lately, with the numerous useless revelations he's been making about his former principal. Like, who really give a f*ck about these infos?
