The Christians Association of Nigeria (CAN) has asked the presidency to update Nigerians on the true state of President Buhari’s health, stating that it’s obvious, the President is facing some health challenges.
CAN, equally called on Nigerians to pray for the speedy recovery and return of the President to Nigeria to continue the work of steering the affairs of the nation from the present economic crisis to prosperity.
In a statement signed by Director of Legal and Public Affairs, CAN; Evangelist Kwamkur Samuel, the association said the quick recovery of the President should be the prime concern of every Nigerian instead of dwelling on the needless rumour mongering on the President’s health.
According to him, “President Muhammadu Buhari is human, hence subject to health challenges sometimes. CAN appreciates the anxiety of Nigerians to hear Mr. President speak, but sues for understanding as we await that. It is very clear that our leader is passing through health challenges.”
Samuel, who maintained that CAN is deeply concerned about the ongoing national conversation on the absence of the President due to ill- health, advised the presidency to update Nigerians on how he is fairing and the full progress of his recovery.
He advised the Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo to be bold in handling critical State matters and not to be distracted by those who do not wish Nigeria well.
