Why Doctors In Nigeria Cannot Treat Buhari— Adesina

The Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity,  Femi Adesina, says his boss prefers to have his medical check-up in the United Kingdom because Nigeria’s doctors do not have his medical profile.

Adesina said this  during a live interview session with Channels Television.

According to him, only the doctors in the United Kingdom have Buhari’s medical records.

Adesina added that the president has been using a medical team in the UK for over 40 years.

He said, “President Buhari has been with the same doctors and medical team for upward of 40 years.

 “It is advisable that he continues with those who know his medical history and that is why he comes to London to see them. He has used the same medical team for over 40 years. Once you can afford it, then stay with the team that has your history.”

According to reports, Buhari left for London on Monday to attend an education summit after which he will have a medical check-up, his office said.

The 78-year-old Buhari, visited London several times for check-ups between May 2015, when he was first elected, and 2017 for an undisclosed ailment.

In a statement on Monday, Adesina said the Nigerian leader would also participate in the Global Education Summit co-hosted by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta.
