Writing on the popular Nigerian website SaharaReporters.com, journalist Emmanuel Egwu bemoaned the refusal by the country’s ruling cabal to accept that President Muhammadu Buhari is, in effect, a vegetable.
Egwu wrote as the president’s inner circle tried to shut down all speculation as to whether Buhari would run for a second term in 2019, given that he can hardly speak and is said to be permanently in a wheelchair.
Buhari’s supporters insist that he must run, despite the fact that he has been in a terrible state of health for the past year and is in high care in London.
