Olusegun Mimiko: We have facilities to treat Buhari in Ondo - Governor's aide says

Akinbobola said the President’s decision to travel abroad for treatment will project Nigeria’s health sector as incompetent.

Akin Akinbobola, the Special Adviser to Ondo State Governor, Olusegun Mimiko, on political and mobilisation matters, has slammed President Buhari for travelling abroad to treat his ear disease.

Akinbobola said the hospitals in Ondo state have all the medical facilities needed to treat the President.

He also said the President’s decision to travel abroad for treatment will project Nigeria’s health sector as incompetent.

Akinbobola said “Good and very up-to date facilities abound in Nigeria that can handle such ailment. Ondo State today is proud to have state of the art Tertiary medical institutions. it’s worthy of note to mention that the medical village in Ondo gets referrals from abroad.

“Mr. President could have used Ondo State medical facilities for treatment. except he is biased about Ondo state being a PDP state.”

The Governor’s aide also said the President would have patronised a Nigerian hospital at a time like this when the rate of the Dollar is high.

It has also been revealed that President Buhari is also suffering from a terrible cough.
