President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday said results of the series of medical checkups he carried out in the cause of his medical vacation had shown that he needed longer period of rest.

He said this necessitated his staying back in London, United Kingdom longer than initially planned.

The President said this in a four-paragraph made available to journalists by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina.
Adesina did not disclose how long the President’s “longer period of rest” will take.

He however thanked Nigerians for their prayers and good wishes while assuring them that there is no cause for worry.

The statement read, “President Muhammadu Buhari thanks millions of Nigerians who have been sending good wishes and praying for his health and well-being in mosques and churches throughout the country.

“The President is immensely grateful for the prayers, show of love and concern.

“President Buhari wishes to reassure Nigerians that there is no cause for worry.

‘”During his normal annual checkup, tests showed he needed a longer period of rest, necessitating the President staying longer than originally planned.”

EVEN IF Osinbajo TAKES OVER, HE DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO OFFER THE COUNTRY. I ONLY SEE HIM AS AN EMPTY BODY OCCUPYING AN OFFICE.

Is it not obvious that the presidency is playing ping-pong with the minds of Nigerians? The President's state is not really too good. Unfortunately, they cannot come out and tell us this.

kYjelly2:
Very obvious, hence, very annoying!

Sometimes it's refreshing to hear the truth from the lips of the accused, even though one can already deduce the truth based on glaring evidence.

Rest on Baba, our able VeePee, your side-kick, is doing a wonderful job.

We are confident we are in safe hands. But when you see you cant continue no matter what, simply resign with honour and dignity.

We will never forget to show gratitude for all youve done.

God bless you sir.

And how do you ascertain/tell if a man has something to offer or otherwise? How you see him does not really matter to the populace. He's honestly more sensible than ineffectual buffoon. I see no reason why he should not be given a chance.

I just pray this saga does not get to the level that of of UMYA got to before they own up.
