Nobel Laureate Professor Wole Soyinka talks on the ongoing public fuss about President Buhari’s health.
The prolific writer stated that the president is not supposed to hide his health status, considering the fact that he is a public figure.
He likened the secrecy behind the president’s health to the secret Donald Trump’s tax returns.
“Why is the president hiding his state of health? He’s supposed to understand he’s public property, me I’m still private property, that’s why I’m not in Aso Rock,”Soyinka said.
He urged the presidency to make his state of health public so as not to compound the problems of the country with the uncertainty of the nation’s leader’s health status.
President Buhari has missed the weekly Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting for three consecutive weeks, likewise, he was also absent during Friday’s Jumat prayers at the State House mosque.
His spokesman, Garba Shehu had said that the president is taking things slowly, following the advice of his doctors so that he can recover fully from treatment he underwent in London.
