Popular Nigerian Comedian, Okey Bakassi has slammed
President Buhari over his recent trip to the UK for medical checkup.
Recall that Buhari earlier departed Nigeria for the United
Kingdom to meet with his doctors for a medical check up.
This had triggered diverse reactions from Nigerians who
claimed the President’s trip is coming at a time he is needed on ground to
oversee the myriad of challenges facing the country.
However, the comedian in a video via his Instagram account, noted that no President who loves his country or leading a country with substance travels to another country for medical checkup.
He also asked why the President’s doctors cannot be flown in
or why the Aso Rock hospital isn’t well equipped.
“No President who loves his country or leading a country
with substance travels to another country for medical checkup.
“We have never heard that Australian President, South
African President or even the President of Ghana goes to another country for
medical checkups.
“It hurts me so much that Nigeria which is known as a giant
of Africa doesn’t have a proper medical care system.
“All Buhari does is incur more debts for. Nigeria with his
incessant travels. The same money they squander in putting together his medical
trip to other countries should be used to set up fully equipped hospitals in
the country.
“Theres no equipment that a hospital needs that Nigerian
government cannot buy. This is the same government that wants to build railway
for Niger republic and refinery of 1.5 billion dollars.
“I think its high time we as individuals in this country
wake up,” he said.
