Tales About Nigerian President's Health

Presidential villa without the president
President Muhammad Buhari is somewhere in Britain receiving medical attention. But no Nigerian knows the name of the hospital, where the president has been receiving medical attention, and actual condition of the president.
Is the president dead or alive or is he or life support and is there any hope returning to help the country towards finding solution to its myriad problems?
But the media reported more than 50 days ago, that the president had traveled for follow up on his medical treatment, having been away earlier for a long time, for the same reason.
Just few days ago, Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State said that President Buhari was on life support since June 6, at an undislcosed West End hospital in London, and that the last time the president's wife, Aisha Buhari, traveled to London to see her husband, she was not allowed to see him. And that only three of the president's men are allowed to see him. He challenged the ruling party to admit or deny his assertion.
In a statement on Friday, the ruling party's chairman, John Odigie Oyegun, said that the president is recovering in a robust manner and he hopes the president takes it easy, and that when the president returns, the chairman said he has no doubt at all that the president will have a new and active period of activities. But he added that only the president's doctors abroad could decide when the president would be fit enough to return to the country.
Obviously, Oyegun has not dismissed Fayose's statement about the president's health, but has merely helped to confuse the situation. He is unaware of the president's health situation and that only the president's doctors could say when he is fit enough to return to the country.
Is it true or not that the president is on life support? No one can say or deny Fayose's statement. It is uncertain that when the president eventually returns to the country, he will be active and still not return to London's undisclosed location, where he has become hostage to some unknown doctors.
The last time the president returned to the country, he was almost incommunicado, before he returned to his undisclosed medical location in London. The president's sickness, his condition and the location of the hospital - where he is receiving medical attention, are shrouded in secrecy.
Many Nigerians have tried to forget about the president and forge ahead with the struggle for survival as arduous as that has become in the face of worsening power supply and economic and economic situation. Rich Nigerians and senior government officials run abroad for medical attention, but poor Nigerians have no where to run than the half baked hospitals in the country.
