Wailing can’t stop Buhari from medical trips, aide declares

Presidential aide, Lauretta Onochie, has disclosed that the right of President Muhammadu Buhari to see his personal doctors cannot be removed.

This is as critiques keep on following the decision of President Buhari to have a medical checkup in London.

The critiques have steered to a sequence of protests at the Abuja House in London where the President is lodged.

A fresh protest coordinated by Revolution Now convener, Omoyele Sowore, has been planned for today in London to force President Buhari to go have his medical checkup in Nigeria where doctors are presently on strike.

In an obvious response, Onochie declared that no measure of howling can prevent President Buhari from setting out on medical trips which he has been doing for years.

She tweeted, “Next year, Pres. @MBuhari will go for a routine checkup.

NEXT YEAR. PRES. @MBuhari WILL GO FOR A ROUTINE CHECKUP.

“We have been here since 2016. It’s been the same wailing. So the response will also be the same.

“At least, once a year, people across the world see their personal doctors, especially one they have seen for about 40 years.

“@MBuhari won’t dump his doctor of about 40 years, so that wailers can be happy. That’s blackmail. Thankfully, he doesn’t pay blackmailers.

“In 2016, I ran from one media house to the other, educating us on the psychology of the bond between a patient & his/her long-standing doctor.

“He went for #CheckUp in 2017, 2018, 2019 & in 2020, just before the pandemic. Same wailing and same explanations.

“The fact remains that if @MBuhari chooses, he will go for checkups in 2022 & 2023. He will continue to go. It’s his choice to go or not to.

“I don’t know any man who will accept a different barber to cut his hair if the one he is used to, is not available

“Wailing can’t take away his rights to see his personal doctors so wailers must get ready for two more years of wailing and fooling around. God bless Nigeria.”
