The ruling government in Nigeria can be aptly described with one word; "Deceptive". Nigerians can no longer count on spokesmen and women of the president to tell them the true state of affairs in the country. This has deteriorated to the extent that it was a New York based news media ;Sahara reporters that revealed to the nation that the president is no longer able to speak coherently and that he has memory impairment. Both symptoms are generally regarded as symptoms of dementia or stroke.
One spokesman of the president in reaction to the widely circulated report said that the speech impairment was a temporary impediment that got quickly resolved after the president received blood transfusion and rested properly. Another one simply said that it was a false report. Another top official said the president speaks to the acting president on daily basis. Another report insisted that the president has not spoken to the Ag. president since he traveled to London.
To cap it all a recording of micro presidential address in Hausa language was released by a radio station and some people were busy translating to English for Nigerians so they can rejoice that their president can still speak. One opposition chieftain said the voice was not that of Buhari and Sahara reporters claimed they analysed the recording and confirmed that it was the voice of a very weak man who was given a written passage and probably some stimulants to support him long enough to read the passage.
The most plausible conclusion is as follows; The president has a cancer or other chronic disease that manifest as anemia or low blood count. At a stage he had a stroke and anemia at the same time. After he was transfused to treat the anemia, he miraculously recovered from the stroke but his memory of spoken English lagged behind. He was also able to read but cannot generate a cohesive thought or communication. He was therefore given a passage in his mother tongue to read and prove to Nigerians that he is still alive. Q. E.D.
In conclusion, any person telling you that Buhari will soon be back and that he will contest again in 2019 is an enemy of the country and should be treated as such. Some of them are interested in keeping their position and some are protecting their investments.
