Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose on Wednesday disclosed that the health situation of President Muhammadu Buhari has worsened, and that he has been on life support since June 6 at a West-End, London hospital.
The governor, who said Buhari would need a miracle from God to survive his current predicament, admonished those he described as a “cabal” in the presidency to allow the president resign to prevent the country from an avoidable crisis.
At a press conference in Ado Ekiti, Fayose declared that the president has spent 53 days in London to attend to his health challenges, expressing regret that no official information as to his whereabouts and his state of health has been made available since he left the shores of the country.
But in a reaction, the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC challenged Fayose to show evidence that the ailing Buhari is on a life support facility in London.
The National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi wondered why Fayose, who campaigned vigorously against the emergence of Buhari as president in the build-up to the 2015 general elections, was now gloating and coming up with what he called such “tales.”
Abdullahi who acknowledged that he was not in the know of the health status of President Buhari said: “I don’t have such information on the health status of the president as spokesman of the APC. If the governor is saying he has it, I don’t have it.
“All I know is what is in the public domain. If Fayose has such information and he is making it available, I think people should ask him how he got it. I only hope he is not celebrating that his prophesy is coming to pass. I hope that is not why he is gleefully announcing it because if that is what he is doing, it is no longer politics. It is about our common humanity.”
