Ww all know d guy is sick,let's cut him some slack

A source familiar with President Muhammadu Buhari’s medical treatment in London has revealed to SaharaReporters that, apart from a lingering prostrate flare-up and other chronic conditions, the Nigerian leader has also recently been battling with a persistent “internal organ” problem, a fact this website reported on Sunday.

The source attributed President Buhari’s inability to eat as well as his progressive loss of weight to Crohn’s Disease, a medical condition that has affected his digestive system.

According to the source, Mr. Buhari had had parts of his colon removed in 2013 and also had another operation to have hemorrhoids, swollen veins near the human rectum, removed in 2016 in London during one of his secret trips to seek urgent medical treatment.

The latest revelation appears to validate a claim by Mr. Buhari’s wife, Aisha Buhari, to the effect that her husband was dealing with “internal organ failure.”

In interviews, several doctors in Nigeria and the UK told Saharareporters that the fact that Mr. Buhari was an outpatient indicated a condition consistent with Crohn’s disease. Two of the doctors stated that it was likely that President Buhari’s course of treatment for his prostrate and other issues led to a complication and worsening of his Crohn’s disease. SaharaReporters had reported that Mr. Buhari also has prostate cancer that was first treated by UK doctors shortly after the Nigerian leader lost the 2011 presidential election to former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes inflammation of the lining of the digestive tract, leading to abdominal pain, severe diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss and malnutrition. Inflammation caused by the disease can affect different areas of the digestive tract in different patients, but doctors interviewed for this report disclosed that it usually occurs in the intestines, where the inflammation caused by Crohn's disease often spreads deep into the layers of affected bowel tissue.

Doctors also revealed that Crohn's disease can be both painful and debilitating, and sometimes may lead to life-threatening complications. “When it occurs in younger people, there is a higher chance of future complications than in older patients,” one doctor told our correspondent. He added that the disease “often worsens with age.”

[i]According to the doctors consulted for this report, while there is no known cure for Crohn's disease, [/i]palliative therapies can greatly reduce its signs and symptoms and even bring about long-term remission. Some of the doctors stressed that, with proper treatment and management, many patients with Crohn's disease are able to function well.

The doctors stated that the cause of Crohn's disease is largely unknown. However, one doctor said the condition was likely due to an abnormal response of the immune system. Food or bacteria in the intestines, or even the lining of the bowel, may cause the uncontrolled inflammation associated with Crohn's disease.

The doctors disclosed that the inheritance pattern of Crohn’s disease was also unclear, noting that several genetic and environmental factors are often at play in the occurrence of the disease. According to one doctor, the condition tends to “cluster in families.” He explained that having an affected family member was deemed to constitute a significant risk factor for the disease.

These Guineans should respect themselves. We do not have a "Conte" as a name here.

Even the Rivers and Bayelsa people that have funny names like Horsefall,General,Pepple,Green and all other kind of assorted strange names,will not touch "Conte"

CROWNWEALTH019:
We want TINUBU AND FAYOSE for 2019

Report has surfaced that the national Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is preparing to run for the presidency in 2019.

He has been reportedly holding series of meetings and consultations for his presidential aspiration.

The former Lagos state governor was said to have revealed his interest in the number one position during the inauguration of Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN) as the newly elected governor of Ondo state on Friday, February 24.

“There is nothing wrong with such ambition. It depends on the timing and the environment and what political leadership dictates. I will not brush aside such an aspiration,” he said.

Sources close to him disclosed that he is already putting together a team in preparation for the race.

Several politicians are already gearing up to contest the 2019 presidential election which is two years away.

According to a source in the know, Tinubu is tired of being a kingmaker and has decided to contest.

Three names have been pencilled down as his possible running mates.

1. Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto state

He was chosen due to name recognition and political considerations. Before he became, Tambuwal was the speaker of the House of Representatives. He dumped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the APC in 2014 after months of speculation and denial.

2. Senator Abu Ibrahim

He represents President Muhammadu Buhari’s Katsina South senatorial district. He was picked as one of the possible running mates to placate the president’s people and power bloc. He was the chairman of the Katsina branch of the PDP for some months. He later defected to the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) under whose platform he was elected Senator for the Katsina South (Funtua) senatorial district in April 2003. 2006 he was expelled from the ANPP in 2006 and in 2010, he followed Buhari’s lead and resigned from the party. He became a senator once again in 2011 under the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) platform.

3. Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammad Sanusi II

Another possible candidate to be Tinubu’s running mate is the Emir of Kano who is a well-known political associate of the APC leader. He served as governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria from 2009 until his suspension in 2014. He was picked because of his expertise on matters concerning the economy which could prove very useful to a Tinubu presidency.

JVLI:
well whether it is true or not.
Yes how he dressed is awkward based on the kind of Job he was interviewed for.
However, In life, business Jobs do not only come via dressings alone, they want to know the mind and the brain behind those clothes and before you begin to crucify me:

I have seen Janitors become MANAGERS after 6 months of straight diligent works.

The dressing i believe will fit in later. The way God moves is mysterious.

I have also seen a billionaire getting wedded to a prostitute.The latter scene was that he re packaged her and sent her back to school.

The way we all see are different.

Criteria in Job interviews are more than sometimes dressing.

Do you know how many people dress well, but lose the real business etiquette required to build the business?

jagorinho:
I served in enugu too, all teachers in my ppa were ibos,speaking ibo fluently without any hinderance,are you not tired of playing the victim card always it potrays you as a weakling.One of the eastern states once sacked non indigienes working for the state government but you wont see that, if you are not comfortable with how things are run in lagos then move there are still 35 states to choose from.

That is the problem of this our great country
So everyone is doing it he should too
I am sorry I will not take that as each of them have their names.
If Governor Ambode is a man of integrity, He will uphold his electoral promises.
I remembered he promised to rule with equity amongst ALL. IGBO, HAUSA AND YORUBA

Wiseandtrue:
Okay I will do that when the people are the government and not the leaders.

I am still trying to differentiate between the people and A LEADER

Wiseandtrue:
No be Yoruba him dey employ before Even to teach other subject

So what is the big deal

Wiseandtrue:
[/b]
I want to believe that you are speaking for yourself, from a genuine heart but I am not talking about you. I am talking about Ambode who despite his good electoral promises is selective in his employment. He only favours the Yorubas.

The government of those day preach peace and unity. You get to any government settings, you feel you are a Nigerian and every students related so well with the teachers. They don't feel out of place. In the school, you will find Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba both amongst the pupils and the teachers but now what do we have

Wiseandtrue:
Understand me, I am not interested. Before now dey n.a. Igbo or Hausa him dey employ

If Ambode see other natives that can teach Yoruba so well, will he employ them

So enough of these hype in the social media.

Wiseandtrue:
Who him dey employ before No be only Yoruba people Mtcheeeeew

Later they will be saying that Nigeria is one.

Hypocrite! It's not heart wrenching to kill and eat chicken right?

malton:
Make an Igbo man the head of any security agency and watch him attempt to move its headquarters to Enugu.

During Jona's regime, a certain aviation minister alongside the then head of school of aviation, also Igbo, made desperate attempts to move the NCAA from Zaria to Enugu. It took the intervention of numerous northern elites to halt the move.

When Dora was made information minister, she also made attempts to move the National Film Institute from Jos to Enugu. The indigenes had to protest to have the decision rescinded.

People are suspicious of the Igbo man for justifiable reasons; he sees everyone else as undeserving of anything.

The are not politically sagacious.

There are many good Igbo people out there, but the shady ones make you stand firmly on your feet whenever you deal with any Igbo man. It's pathetic.

HungerBAD:
Cry Baby.

Just wasted my time reading this crappy interview of this man. I thought his praise singers, hail him as an intelligent person?this just shows to you that these groups in the East are nothing, but fronts for these Eastern Agitators, while claiming not to be in the know in public.

So, this man is saying the Government should negotiate with IPOB?because to him, they are negotiating with the Militants in the Niger Delta?while mentioning OPC.

This guy is a Joke. I thought the people from "Warri" hold sway in the comedy sector in Nigeria? did not know the East is trying to give the Wafferians a good run for their money, by sending this Joke to be the President of an important organization.

For starters, the Niger Delta Militants or the OPC had never, will never, and dont agitate for the break of Nigeria. And these is what the IPOB stands for. This Oliver Twist, is complaining there are no Igbo's in the Intelligence community in Nigeria. So until the Intelligence Agencies in Nigeria has a 90% Igbo membership, that is when you guys will become satisfied?moreover it will even be stupid to entrust anything to the East for now.

When Germany and Japan fell in the Second World War. The Allied Nations, knew that there were and will be elements of dissents in those countries, and what did they do? the US established Military bases in Germany and Japan with a view to keeping an eye on them for the next "100" Years, just in case they want to start something again, while depriving them of Nuclear Capabilities.

It is this same strategy that should be used by the Nigerian Government, with the East, so as to keep an eye on them. The Civil war is not even "100" Years, and they are back again, with the chant for the same Biafra.

Losers.
