Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has said that the All<\/p>\n
Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Major General
\nMohammadu Buhari (rtd) who travelled to the United Kingdom (UK) for
\nmedical treatment is being attended to at a London hospital,
\ndescribing the medical trip as a vindication of his earlier stand that
\nBuhari was sick and lacked the required capacity to rule Nigeria.<\/p>\n
He said; “as against the claim of the APC that Bihari was on a short
\nworking visit to the UK, Buhari is being treated at a hospital located
\nat Cavendish Street, Cavendish Square, W2 London West End, London.”<\/p>\n
Speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and
\nNew Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor described claim by the APC that
\nBuhari will give a talk at the Royal Institute of International
\nAffairs, Chatham House, London as “deceit taken too far.”<\/p>\n
He said; “The event listed on Royal Institute of International Affairs
\nwebsite; http:\/\/ www.chathamhouse.org\/events
\nto hold on February 23 and 24 is; ‘Security and Defence: Rising powers
\nand the future of defence cooperation’ and Buhari’s name is not listed
\namong the speakers.<\/p>\n
“For the avoidance of doubt; the event’s keynote speakers are; former
\nBrazil Minister of Defence, Celsius Amorin; UK Parliamentary Under
\nSecretary of State and Minister of Defence Equipment Support and
\nTechnology, Celsius Amorin; Chief of the Defence Staff, UK Ministry of
\nDefence, General Sir Nicholas Houghton; Chief Executive of BAE System,
\nIan King and Secretary General, Cooperation Council for the Arab
\nStates of the Gulf, Dr Abdulatif Bin Rashid Al Zayani.<\/p>\n
“Apart from the above listed five persons, 25 others are listed as speakers.<\/p>\n
“So, in which Royal Institute of International Affairs’ event is
\nBuhari participating as a speaker?<\/p>\n
“This is not to mock Buhari or wish him dead. Rather, it is to expose
\nthe falsehood of the APC and desperation of its leaders, especially
\nSenator Bola Tinubu to foist another Yar’Adua saga on Nigeria.”<\/p>\n
The governor maintained; “The truth is that Buhari travelled out on
\nThursday to seek medicare in UK and he was attended to at a hospital
\nlocated in Cavendish Street, Cavendish Square, W2 London West End,
\nLondon on Friday.<\/p>\n
“If the APC people are saying otherwise, let them publish the picture
\nof Buhari boarding the plane and granting interview to Aviation
\nCorrespondents at the Abuja Airport.<\/p>\n
“While I am happy that the APC people that are packaging Buhari
\nfinally hearkened to my plea that they should allow him (Buhari) to
\nseek medicare abroad, I must say that it is unpatriotic for the APC
\nto have lied that Buhari travelled on a working visit.<\/p>\n
“The party should be honest enough to tell Nigerians that Buhari is
\nactually sick and lack capacity to rule Nigeria and that they are
\nonly packaging him, hoping that he will become incapacitated if he
\nbecomes president so that they
\ncan take over power by proxy.”<\/p>\n
