Buhari’s Health Issues Are Affecting Him To Perform Well, Goes Off Duty At 5pm Daily — Presidential Source

According to a presidential source, President Muhammadu Buhari’s undisclosed health issues are affecting his ability to perform his duties as he goes off duty at 5 p.m. daily.

According to the source, the President ignores urgent national issues that benefit the country after 5 p.m. Nigerian time and postpones them until the next day.

“The President is tired, it’s no more news that he has dementia, a mental sickness that causes memory loss and impaired judgment.

“Currently, he won’t attend to files till 10am and the moment it’s 5pm, he goes off duty. Even if Nigeria is on fire, he won’t make any decision. Nobody can see him again except members of the (Presidency) cabal and close family members. This is seriously affecting his handling of national matters.

“We were here when Goodluck Jonathan was President; he would work till 11pm daily,” the source told SaharaReporters.

President Buhari’s failure to make crucial decisions on insecurity and the poor economy has become a source of concern for many Nigerians, according to NEWS DIRECT in December 2020, a situation that his dementia and other undisclosed ailments he is treating may have contributed to.

His physical concerns had reportedly compelled him to fly out of the nation at least seven times for treatment, totaling nearly 200 days since assuming office in his first term in 2015.

Buhari had a six-day holiday in the United Kingdom from February 5 to 10, 2016, claiming that his doctors were based there.

Buhari traveled to England for a 10-day medical trip from June 6 to June 19, 2016, for ear infection surgery. He decided to extend his journey by three days in order to rest.

The President returned to London on January 19, 2017, for a medical break.

He requested an extension of his London medical leave in a letter to the National Assembly on February 5, 2017.

Buhari returned to Nigeria on March 10, 2017, but did not immediately begin work at Aso Villa. “He was working from home,” the White House stated.

Buhari traveled to London for another medical vacation on May 7, 2017. He had been gone for 104 days, the longest he had ever been out of the nation. On August 19, 2017, he returned to Nigeria, and he took some time to get back to work since his handlers stated rodents had apparently ruined furnishings in his office.

Buhari left for London on May 8, 2018 for a four-day “medical evaluation.”

Buhari returned to the United Kingdom on April 26, 2019, on a 10-day private visit to seek medical treatment. On May 5, he returned to the country.

In 2020, he was unable to travel abroad for medical treatment due to the COVID-19 epidemic.

The President and members of his immediate family then flew to the United Kingdom for a two-week medical treatment on March 30, 2021.

The result is that, in addition to being unable to deal with pressing national issues and make important decisions for the country, the President is seen as being out of control of his government.

This has been demonstrated by a series of contradictory measures and squabbles within his administration.

Buhari is 78 years old, which has prompted some Nigerians to believe that elderly people should no longer be permitted to hold positions of power.

Buhari’s demenia also prevented him from visiting the location of the abduction of over 300 school boys from Kankara town in Katsina State, contrary to allegations made by his spokesman, Garba Shehu, in December 2020.

According to a source, the President’s dementia caused him to visit his cattle farm on Saturday morning rather than go to school.

Dementia is a generic word for a loss of memory, language, and thinking abilities, which could be caused by the President’s advanced age or a medical issue that has yet to be revealed.

President Buhari was informed of the incident on Friday night. However, due to dementia, he had forgotten,” the source stated of Buhari’s absence from the school.

When the footage of the President visiting his property was released the following Monday, the President’s spokesperson, Shehu, fiercely denied that the President was aware of the visit until Saturday morning, when he went to his property.
