UK trip purely a\u00a0private appointment with his doctors &#8211; PDP\u00a0"},"content":{"rendered":"<div id=\"m#msg-f:1706454699723820698\" class=\"mail-message expanded\">\n<div class=\"mail-message-header spacer\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said the United Kingdom trip by President Muhammadu Buhari was purely to keep an appointment with his doctors and not necessarily for the Global Education Summit which is a virtual meeting.<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-content collapsible zoom-normal mail-show-images \" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<div class=\"clear\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The party describes as appalling that President Buhari could deploy the nation\u2019s resources to travel to London for the Global Education Summit on Financing Global Partnership for Education (GPE) 2021-2025, when the meeting is scheduled to be virtual.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The PDP also berates the Buhari Presidency for trying to hide his private appointment with his doctors under the virtual meeting apparently in a bid to launder his consistent failure to honour his pre-2015 campaign promise not to embark on medical tourism, if elected President.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The party in a statement by the National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan insists that President Buhari has no justification to travel to far-away London, since the meeting is virtual meeting or for a medical checkup, which he could have done at home, if his administration had not wrecked our healthcare system.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Mr. President\u2019s action has confirmed the stand by majority of Nigerians that he is wasteful, thinks only about himself and cares less about millions of our citizens, who do not have access to foreign medical treatment, but who are dying on daily basis because the Buhari administration has crippled our health sector.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;It is disheartening that while Mr. President is spending tax payers\u2019 money relishing the expertise of London doctors and the luxury of medical facilities in that country, millions of Nigerians are dying in decrepit medical facilities at home.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Moreover, is it not atrocious that Mr. President is more interested in going to London for a virtual education summit when hundreds of students, who ought to be beneficiaries of the meeting, are languishing in kidnappers\u2019 dens, with the Buhari administration taking no concrete steps to rescue them and end incessant abduction of students in Nigeria?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Indeed, there is no way history will be kind with President Buhari, as he has always wished, if he continue in his manner of thinking only about his needs at the expense of the generality of Nigerians.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Our party however urges Nigerian not to resign to despondency in the face of such incompetent, selfish and insensitive Buhari-led All Progressives Congress (APC) administration, but to remain resilient in rallying on the platform of the PDP to rescue our nation from misrule.&#8221;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic
