President Muhammadu Buhari’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and publicity, Femi Adesina has once again addressed issues regarding the president’s health status.

Femi Adesina following the presidents re-extension of his medical vacation in London disclosed that only the president can tell Nigerians the type of ailment he is battling.

While speaking to the state house correspondents today in Abuja, Femi Adesina urged Nigerians to believe the president who claimed he is hale and hearty.

He said: “Don’t you know that the Hippocratic Oath even forbids a doctor from speaking about the condition of his patient except the patient authorises it?

“It is only the patient himself who can speak about what he is going through. This is the person going through these series of tests and rest and he says no cause to worry. Let us believe that.”

He added: “I speak for somebody. I do not speak for myself. So it is what he tells me to say that I say and the statement transmitted to me is that the president needs to rest for some further time.”

In reaction to the rumors in the media which held that the President had lost his voice, Fem Adesina said: “Those people need to prove it. He spoke with President Trump. Did Trump say he did not speak with Nigerian President. Anybody can allege anything. My message to Nigerians is that let us learn to believe our leaders. This is a man we elected into office and he says no cause to worry, let us believe him.”
