Buhari eventually left for the UK abruptly on the evening of May 7, shortly after meeting with some Chibok girls who had been released the previous day by Boko Haram. Although Buhari spoke at the event, his voice was barely audible, as he had lost a lot of weight, his condition reportedly complicated by Crohn’s Disease.
When the President was leaving for the airport, he shocked his aides when he asked if they were going to Sokoto, perhaps one of the first signs of his deteriorating memory. It has now been learnt that President Buhari has not spoken to Acting President Yemi Osinbajo by telephone since his departure.
Only last week, the Acting President was asked to await a phone call from Mr. Buhari but when a call eventually came in, nothing coherent was heard from Mr. Buhari, despite the cabal having kept telling people of his “tremendous” improvement.
The cabal is also reportedly behind the rumors of a possible coup by some military officers a couple of weeks ago, as well as the recent quit notice by some Northern youths to the Igbos in that area, which they figured would make western countries view such an attempt with understanding if they thought the action would protect Nigeria as an indivisible entity.
Meanwhile, several top western diplomats including the Ambassadors of the US and the UK, are scheduled to meet with Acting President Osinbajo in the coming days. It is unclear if at that meeting the UK will brief Osinbajo regarding Buhari’s exact condition, but a State Department official told Saharareporters that they are more concerned about Nigeria’s indivisibility than the question of Buhari’s health.
A source at the British Embassy told this website they don’t think Buhari could continue to govern in the condition he is in London. President Buhari left Nigeria flew into Luton airport on a Presidential jet with registration number 5N-FGT in the first week of May. The jet was then flown on a 17-minute ride from Luton to London Stansted Airport, where it remains parked for over a month. https://dailytimes.ng/politics/president-buhari-suffers-speech-impairment-london-sahara-reporters-claims/?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C6738658183 'I just made MyTV Smart Payment payment on Quickteller.com .Try it out.
