Special Adviser to President Buhari
on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, says contrary to opinion held by
some people, Buhari's five day vacation is for him to rest and that he
is not sick . Adesina who was a guest on Channels TV yesterday night,
said Buhari had worked for eight straight months since he assumed office
and needs rest
“Any
man can fall sick, old or young, but the president is not sick, the
president is well. The president has worked for more than eight months
non-stop, and he felt it was time to take a respite and he asked for six
days leave and he did it the proper way. He communicated it to the
national assembly, handed over power to his deputy and nothing is wrong
with that.”he said
He denied claims that Buhari's vacation appeared sudden.
“Do you go on vacation because you
are sick? You need respite from time to time and when you think it is
time for respite, you take it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with
his state of health. “Nigerians have been lied to for so long that they
are now finding it difficult to believe the truth and that is the
problem. You have told the truth yet they did not believe it because
they have a carry-over of those who have lied to them for many decades
but this government will not lie; it will tell the truth.”he said
