Speaking at a forum, themed ‘Sacred Cow’, in Lagos yesterday, Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to disclose his state of health to Nigerians, stating that the President is a public property. In his words:
“Why is the President hiding his state of health? He’s supposed to understand he’s public property; me, I’m still private property, that’s why I’m not in Aso Rock (Presidential Villa).”
“Once you are in Aso Rock, or you occupy a similar position, you have a responsibility to come out frankly to your citizens. Let him address the nation and stop all these speculations which create unnecessary political manipulations among other things.”
