The Doctors that shared their opinion to the extension of the President's stay in London for medical test and results, emphasized that the hindrance of the president’s ailment is already creating confusion, suspicion and lack of trust from the citizens of the country.
Prof. Mike Ogirima,The National President of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), called for transparency on the current situation at hand.
He said that nobody was above sickness, Ogirima said transparency on the part of the presidency would lay to rest doubt, “speculation and confusion surrounding the matter”.
According his statement to New Telegraph, “Nigerians deserve to know the nature of the sickness afflicting their president,”
Also reacting, National President, National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD), Dr. John Onyebueze said keeping Buhari’s ailment secret, had already created suspicion in the mind of the public.
According to Onyebueze;
“In a family where a father or mother is sick and the circumstance surrounding the illness is hidden from the children, this creates suspicion and mutual distrust.
“As a nation and country, we don’t need this distrust. The nature of the president’s ailment should be disclosed. Nigerians praying for Buhari should know the exact nature of his illness to enable them channel their prayers properly.
“As individuals, as Nigerians and as patriotic citizens of this country, we empathise with President Buhari and his family over the health challenges facing him.
“We should rally round and pray for the quick recovery of the President, rather than make a jest of the situation. He needs our support, our prayers and everything we can do as citizens to support him.”
He went further to say that;
‘this does not take away the fact that we should not constructively criticise the government for improvement and the betterment of the country’.
“If the health sector has been given all the necessary and adequate attention it deserves, Nigerians seeking medical attention would not be travelling overseas for this purpose. This includes President Buhari.”
Yusuf Ali, a prominent chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kaduna State, claimed that those wishing the death of the president are those eyeing the President's seat.
