Former governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole, on Saturday criticised those saying President Muhammadu Buhari, who is on vacation in the United Kingdom, has died. According to him, the President, as a citizen, is entitled to a period of rest and medical checkup.
He explained “I think it is unnecessary. Let us be honest. As the governor of Edo State, we have had to sponsor. Nigerian medical doctors who requested for it in black and white that they had to be treated in India, the UK or the US and they gave me several reasons why they needed foreign medical check.”
Oshiomhole stated that it was unfortunate that some Nigerians preferred to peddle negative speculation to the extreme, rather than wish the President well.
He, therefore, urged Nigerians to be cautious of their utterances.
