BEVERLY HILLS, August 23, (THEWILL) – Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has insisted that President Muhammadu Buhari “is too sick to carry on with the enormous responsibility of a president”, adding that he has no apologies over what he had said about the President “because I am saying the truth”.
The governor, who spoke on Wednesday while interacting with political office holders and leaders across the 16 councils of the state, said the fact that Buhari had started “governing again from home a few days after 103 days in London is a clear justification for my claim about his health and the fact that the ruling party is deceiving Nigerians.
“He will soon start to rule Nigeria from his sitting room and later bedroom. Nigeria does not deserve to be led by a sick president.”
He claimed that his relentless attacks on the President was responsible for his sudden return to the country last Saturday and not that he was fit to so do, adding that he (Buhari) was actually “in coma on July 6.”
Fayose said: “The president actually went into coma and this was attested to by what one of the governors who visited him abroad, said that his recovery was a miracle.
“When somebody’s recovery is a miracle it simply means something very serious had happened to the person. Since the President himself cannot disclose his health status and also the extent of his ailment. It apparently shows that there is so much to hide.
“I cannot commit suicide because of an old man. Such are from miscreants on the social media. Let me tell you expressly, why would I commit suicide I cannot commit suicide because of my mother.
“Even if they are burying my mother now, I will cleverly stay away from the grave so that I won’t fall into it. I can’t commit suicide because of Buhari. I never said that and will never make such statement.
“Today (yesterday) they have cancelled the Federal Executive Council meeting. You cannot hide the truth forever, it will reveal itself someday.
“You cannot continue to deceive Nigerians. Buhari is sick and tired and even his physical appearance betrayed this and he needs to go home and rest.
“Every word that has come out of my mouth, I have no apology for them. President Buhari was indeed in coma and one of those who visited him said his recovery is a miracle that shows that he was indeed very sick.
“Let Buhari go back to Daura and rest. Don’t send him to his early grave. Buhari is not old enough to be my father, my mother is older than Buhari, he cannot be my father; he can only be my uncle. I am close to 60.”
