Personal Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, has spoken out on why the President will embark on another medical vacation abroad.

In series of Tweets posted on Thursday, Lauretta Onochie, who is President Muhammadu Buhari’s Personal Assistant on Social Media, disclosed that the President will embark on another medical vacation abroad when the time is right. The outspoken politician insisted that no amount of force can make the president to step out of the country until when his doctors gives an instruction for such a trip.

The Presidential aide was reacting to comments of Adetokunbo Pearse who was speaking as a guest at Channels TV programme, “Sunrise Daily”, who said that the President is incapacitated because he is not able to attend meetings, travel, meet with people or govern the nation.

“We do not have a Government in Nigeria right now,” Adetokunbo Pearse said, adding “We have no secretary to the Govt, we have no President in place, do we have a Presidency.”

In a swift reaction, Lauretta said it was wrong for adult Nigerians to share strong opinions on Buhari’s health when they really know nothing about it.

She wrote:

“Pres. Buhari will go on medical leave but only on his doctors appointment. Not by being hounded.

“The business of governance is not like splitting firewood where d axe is in the hands of one man. Its a team work. So Pres Buhari is working

“It’s very sad that adults would hold strong opinions about something they know nothing about and make strong utterances based on assumptions.”
