Fani-Kayode declares Buhari unfit, asks him to give up

According to FFK, as the PDP chieftain is known, the absence of Buhari at the fourth Federal Executive Council meeting in a row was a clear indication that the president’s health had worsened and no longer fit to discharge his duties as the number one citizen of Nigeria.
In an article entitled, The Resurrection of Corpocracy obtained by DAILY POST, the former minister warned that what happened to the late President Umaru Musa Yar Adua might be knocking at the door of Buhari.
Yar Adua died on May 5, 2010 after a long protracted battle with Acute Pericarditis at the age of 58.
“Whoever is holding this poor, frail, sick and elderly man to ransom and keeping him in the Presidential Villa, probably against his will, is wicked and ungodly and he or she is committing a grave sin against God and the Nigerian people,” FFK wrote.
“It is clear that the President is no longer fit to govern. It is obvious that his time is almost up. It is self-evident that for him the bell is tolling.
“It is incontrovertible that those around him have held him captive and are indulging in what I once described in an essay that I wrote seven years during the last days of President Umaru Yar’adua as “corpocracy”. The essay was titled ”Corpocracy: A Gift From Umaru To The Modern World”.
“This is what happened during Yar’adua’s last four months on earth whilst he still had one foot in the land of the living and it is happening to Buhari today,” he wrote.
Meanwhile, The Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, on Thursday explained that president Muhammadu Buhari was absent at the Federal Executive Council, FEC, based on the advice of his doctors.
