Mr President's Health: Fayose Goofs Again! By Sanni K. Yusuf

 

The most unbridled governor of the century, Ayodele Fayose seemed too sure when he claimed that President Muhammadu Buhari  was dying on life support at a London hospital. The loose governor in his press release yesterday sounded like a sniper trailing the movements of Mr President by his handlers. The confidence with which he mentioned the name of the president's London hospital and the acclaimed three-man cabal concealing the sorry state of health of Mr President could make one fall for his loquaciousness. 

If the claim had emanated from another figure who is not known to have a similar verbose character, the expose might be accorded some dose of attention by Nigerians.

Fayose and his likes, such as the parotic ally of incarceration, Femi Fani-Kayode who is currently languishing in EFCC's web, have always wished Mr President dead even before ascending the Aso Rock throne. They have talked animalistically hard on him in the past. Fayose has been hell bent on wishing the president demise, to the extent that he once expended hugely to sponsor a caricature advert on a national daily viciously prophesying that the president would go six feet down the ground before the lapse of his four-year term. What a devil in man! And the callous, draconian Fayose will go to church on Sunday, sit down quietly like a christ-like. His partner in retrogressive thinking, Fani-Kayode recently described Mr President as a 'living corpse' aside other luciferous oral attacks he had meted out on him in the past.

Even if Fayose's acclaimed exposition was anywhere near veracity, the source it came from would only make us regard it as a mendacity. You are a liar, even if you have told the truth!

However, as positive-minded Nigerians optimistically wish the altruistic President Buhari accelerated recuperation from his sickness, the handler-aides should open up to concerned citizens. We deserve to know the state of health of our leader. He was massively voted because he was healthy. If he wasn't, no matter his applaudable track records, no sane electorate would have cast his vote for an invalid. It is no big deal to make Nigerians know why their leader has, for the second time, been away on health grounds; why he hasn't been able to make it back for the past 53 days.
