The Minister for Health, Isaac Adewole, has refused to criticise
President Muhammadu Buhari’s preference for seeking medical attention in the
United Kingdom.
President Buhari returned from
London Friday after a three-day medical trip.
However, speaking on Channels
Television’s Hard Copy yesterday, Adewole said Buhari’s choice of foreign
medical treatment was not an indictment on the quality of the healthcare in the
country.
Although he said he could not
speak for the president, Adewole mentioned that Buhari may have opted for
foreign doctors in order to protect his privacy, noting that “the average
Nigerian does not want his medical condition exposed.”
Adewole also absolved Buhari of
any wrongdoing on the basis that he was not the only Nigerian that travels
abroad for medical care.
“He’s not the only one,” he said.
