Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has said that the All

Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Major General

Mohammadu Buhari (rtd) who travelled to the United Kingdom (UK) for

medical treatment is being attended to at a London hospital,

describing the medical trip as a vindication of his earlier stand that

Buhari was sick and lacked the required capacity to rule Nigeria.

He said; “as against the claim of the APC that Bihari was on a short

working visit to the UK, Buhari is being treated at a hospital located

at Cavendish Street, Cavendish Square, W2 London West End, London.”

Speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and

New Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor described claim by the APC that

Buhari will give a talk at the Royal Institute of International

Affairs, Chatham House, London as “deceit taken too far.”

He said; “The event listed on Royal Institute of International Affairs

website; http:// www.chathamhouse.org/events
to hold on February 23 and 24 is; 'Security and Defence: Rising powers

and the future of defence cooperation' and Buhari's name is not listed

among the speakers.
“For the avoidance of doubt; the event's keynote speakers are; former

Brazil Minister of Defence, Celsius Amorin; UK Parliamentary Under

Secretary of State and Minister of Defence Equipment Support and

Technology, Celsius Amorin; Chief of the Defence Staff, UK Ministry of

Defence, General Sir Nicholas Houghton; Chief Executive of BAE System,

Ian King and Secretary General, Cooperation Council for the Arab

States of the Gulf, Dr Abdulatif Bin Rashid Al Zayani.

“Apart from the above listed five persons, 25 others are listed as speakers.

“So, in which Royal Institute of International Affairs' event is

Buhari participating as a speaker?
“This is not to mock Buhari or wish him dead. Rather, it is to expose

the falsehood of the APC and desperation of its leaders, especially

Senator Bola Tinubu to foist another Yar'Adua saga on Nigeria.”

The governor maintained; “The truth is that Buhari travelled out on

Thursday to seek medicare in UK and he was attended to at a hospital

located in Cavendish Street, Cavendish Square, W2 London West End,

London on Friday.
“If the APC people are saying otherwise, let them publish the picture

of Buhari boarding the plane and granting interview to Aviation

Correspondents at the Abuja Airport.
“While I am happy that the APC people that are packaging Buhari

finally hearkened to my plea that they should allow him (Buhari) to

seek medicare abroad, I must say that it is unpatriotic for the APC

to have lied that Buhari travelled on a working visit.

“The party should be honest enough to tell Nigerians that Buhari is

actually sick and lack capacity to rule Nigeria and that they are

only packaging him, hoping that he will become incapacitated if he

becomes president so that they
can take over power by proxy.”
