Buhari can not be compelled to talk while on vacation- Presidency

Buhari can not be compelled to talk while on vacation- Presidency

The Presidency yesterday insisted that President Muhammadu Buhari is hale and hearty and not in a London hospital as alleged.
Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity Femi Adesina told CNBC Africa

"The President is in London on vacation.  He is not in any hospital and he is not ill.When he was travelling last week the statement we put out was that he was going on vacation and during the vacation he would do routine medical check-up and nothing has changed from what we pushed out last week.If anybody has fed something else into the rumour mill that is just what it is ‘rumour'”,
“The fact that he is a president, he still has his rights. Compelling him to come out and talk will be infringing on his rights.The President will talk if he wishes to if he doesn’t wish to, nobody will compel him to talk.
“The truth is that the President is on vacation and he has given a date on which he will return to work,’’ he stated.
