The President of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) on Sunday has affirmed that President Buhari will be back soon based on their recent telephone conversation.
He also called on Nigerians to pray for the speedy recovery of President Buhari instead of wishing for his demise.
Speaking in a statement released on behalf of the association, the president, Chinonso Obasi revealed that his conversation with the president on the 22nd of July had shown that the president was recuperating quickly and would be back soon.
“My telephone conversation with the presidency yesterday from London has given more hope that President Buhari will soon be back, alive and able to return to his presidential position.”
He also added that it was unfair to politicize the health of the president.
“In the course of the conversation, I realised that Nigerians need more love to survive the machinations of the ungodly and ill-wishers.”
“This is the time that Nigerians have to more patriotic than political as issues of national interest should be more paramount.”
“President Muhammadu Buhari is our father and deserves our goodwill and solidarity, if by any reason we are comfortable with his absence due to his medical vacation, let every Nigerian observe due process in their agitation.”
Referring that the President’s illness as frailty that must be overcome, he appealed to all Nigerians to play their parts by carrying out all their roles in the interest of the nation.
According to him, individual players and stakeholders in the polity should act with caution as the unity, peace and progress of the nation remain non-negotiable.
