London sources say President Buhari is not coming home soon
President Buhari's health has been a major topic in the polity
One of the sources said on Wednesday, February 22, “The man is alive, but not okay. He is very ill. He is probably not going home soon.”
The source also said though the president is very ill, he attended prayers in a Mosque in London.
For Buhari to have attended the mosque indicates that he is not dead, and that though he may be sick, he is getting well.
When told by The Guardian reporter he was just hoping the president was fit and coming home soon as Nigerians had been repeatedly told, one of the sources noted: “he comes out in the evenings, but is very ill.”
Asked if by “outside” he meant the front of the house, the source indicated that he meant the back of the house.
Another source then disclosed: “he went for prayers on Friday. I saw about four cars” leaving Abuja House.“Maybe that was him,” the source added.
One of the president’s men came towards the gate around 5:07 p.m., beckoning to the reporter to “come.” He then asked: “Are you interested in your president dying?”
When the reporter said “no” and that “that is why we are here” to seek the truth, he then said:
” If you want your president dead, you will be disappointed. The president is hale and hearty. He will be returning soon.”
He then rained abuse on The Guardian’s reporter before walking back inside.
President Buhari has been in London since January 19. The presidency had first announced that he was there for a 10-day leave. But he has since extended the leave on medical grounds.
Meanwhile, the House of Representatives has dismissed some rumours that it is contemplating using the ‘doctrine of necessity’ to remove President Buhari from office.
The position of the green chamber was made known by its spokesman, Honourable Abdulrazaq Namdas on Wednesday, February 22.
In a related development, Prophet TB Joshua has urged Nigerians to rise up in prayer for President Buhari, praying specifically for “strength where there is weakness”.

Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom at the banquet hall of the Government House in Makurdi on Monday announced that he is no longer with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). Ortom stated this while swearing in the newly appointed Special Adviser on Local Government and Cheftaincy Affairs, Jerome Torshimbe, disclosing that the APC had given him ‘red card’ to quit party. Confirming the development to DAILYPOST on Monday, the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Terver Akase, quoted the governor as saying that, “As for party, I’ve been given the red card and I’m now outside the pitch. So, if I have been given the red card and I’m standing outside, that means I’m a free man.” The Governor is yet to disclose his new found political party, but has, however, noted that as soon as he makes up his mind in that regard, he would make it known to the Benue people. “I don’t know what will happen next, but I’m waiting. If others approach me, then I will tell the Benue pe...

NIGERIA: We have lost it completely as a country — Obi  The former Governor of Anambra State, Mr. Peter Obi, has said that all Nigeria needed to do now was to seek men of vision and proven track record to wake her from stupor.   Obi spoke yesterday at the 2018 Making Nigeria Great conference organised by the Summit Bible Church in Abuja. Ex-governor of Anambra state, Mr. Peter Obi Obi who looked at the trajectory of the development of   Nigeria from 1980 till now bemoaned Nigeria’s backwardness.    Comparing it to a car with knocked engine, he   insisted the engine must be fixed first even before the question of who drives it should arise. “To make Nigeria great is a welcome development which Nigerians are called to work towards. However,   we must at all times recognise where we are and what should be done. In our own case, we have lost it completely as a country.  The idea of greatness is good, but we must ...

I have not defected from PDP, says Atiku

-
Atiku Abubakar Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has said that he is still in the Peoples Democratic Party, urging his followers to disregard a rumor that he has defected to another party. Atiku, who defected from PDP to the All Progressives Congress in 2014, but returned to the PDP early this year, asked his supporters to ignore the rumour. A statement from his campaign office in Abuja on Sunday said the defection rumour was not true. The defection rumour had claimed that Atiku had picked a former Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Prof. Charles Soludo, as his running mate on the ticket of the All Progressives Grand Alliance. But the Sunday statement described the report as “a malicious attempt to confuse the public” about the aspiration of Atiku ahead of the forthcoming presidential primaries election of the PDP. It said, “For avoidance of any doubts, Atiku remains the front-line aspirant for the presidential ticket of the PDP. “In the past two month...
