BREAKING NEWS: London Remain Silent On Buhari's Health Status
The continued secrecy around the health status
of Nigeria's president, Muhammadu Buhari has
sent the rumour mill spinning again, with latest
report that the president is dead.
A report by Guardian Newspaper says:
"President Buhari may have been in and out of
hospital since arriving London to see his doctors
exactly two weeks ago, if feelers from the Abuja
House – where the president is staying –
anything to go by.
The Guardian could not confirm this, as it has
met a wall of silence from sources close to
Abuja House, with two of them citing fears of
losing their jobs, if they dare say anything. One
source kept sealed lips and only took occasional
glances at this reporter as he approached him
yesterday afternoon.
A prominent aide of the president who had in
February, walked to this reporter at the entrance
of the property and called him “an educated
illiterate,” before then saying: “if you want the
president dead, you will be disappointed. The
president will make a full recovery,” shunned
The Guardian when asked for the where about
of the president as he was driven out shortly
after 1:00pm.
About 10 minutes before then, one other notable
aide had arrived and also did not respond to
greetings of “afternoon sir, afternoon sir,” before
entering the staff quarters. But when he came
out later and was going towards the main
house, The Guardian repeated same and his
only response was “how are you, journalist,”
before going in to probably see the president.
Another aide was similarly approached, he only
nodded and waved.
All the four sources contacted declined
commenting or saying anything about the
president’s recovery, however, one regular guest
said, “whether he has seen his doctors or not, l
don’t know,” when asked about the president’s
recuperation. Pressed further, he said,
“honestly, l have not seen the President since
he came back, “ again on medical vacation.
Two staff members on the payroll of the High
Commission told The Guardian the same thing.
One said, “
I’m sorry, l cannot say anything to you.” Though
the second noted that they have been “busy,”
since Buhari arrived, but wouldn’t go further,
except to show fear of “losing my job.”
One female staff member when asked yesterday
if the president had come back from seeing his
doctors, simply said “l don’t know about that.”
As if avoiding The Guardian, the aides and
guests no longer use the main entrance to the
house, once inside the property. Even on
Sunday afternoon, when one arrived at about
3.40pm, the driver packed very close to the side
entrance of the house rat
perhaps to prevent the reporter seeing anyone
being driven out.
