Again, Saraki meets Buhari in London, Nigerians demand details of visit

As anxiety mounts over the health status of President Muhammadu Buhari, the ailing President again met  with Senate President, Bukola Saraki in London on Sunday evening, the Presidency’s official Twitter account said. It was their second meeting within a week.

“This evening President @MBuhari met with Senate President @bukolasaraki, at Abuja House,” the official @NGRPresident Twitter account wrote.

However, Nigerians are demanding details of the various meetings between the President and top politicians who had made several sorties to London to see him.

Ephraim Ukudolo, an applicant, said if the leaders are not hiding anything they should have the honour of telling Nigerians the health status of Mr President and details of their meetings.

Another Nigerian, Oye Daramola, described the visits to the President as an act of corruption if the people are kept in the dark as to the details of the President.

Unlike the first meeting, Senator Saraki has not spoken on what was discussed with the president.

When they met last week, along with other leaders of the National Assembly, Saraki issued a statement, allaying public concerns about the president’s health.

He said “there is no cause for alarm”

“The president I saw today is healthy, witty and himself…he is doing well, was cheerful and in good spirits”.

Saraki said last week: “Myself, Rt Honorable Speaker, Yakubu Dogara and leader of Senate, Senator Ahmed Lawan paid a visit to President Buhari in Abuja House in London. We were delighted to see that President Buhari is doing well, was cheerful and in good spirits. The president I saw today is healthy, witty and himself”.

“The president’s absence and imminent return shows that there is no vacuum in government and our system of democracy is working with all organs of government fulfilling their mandate. And let me use the time tested cliché, there is no cause for alarm!”
