Shehu Sani Roasts Aisha Buhari Over New Presidential Medical Clinic Comment

Hours after Aisha Buhari, the first lady of Nigeria, said that new presidents no longer need to travel abroad for medical care, former legislator Shehu Sani spoke.

Remember how the first lady said that future presidents and their families wouldn’t need to travel abroad for medical care when she spoke at the State House Medical Centre’s newly opened N21 billion Presidential Wing in Abuja.

Buhari disclosed that she had originally considered creating a Presidential Wing in 2017, following her husband’s protracted hospitalization in London.

She said “I’m quite happy, feeling fulfilled. Though we are leaving but all the same, we thank God the project has come to reality.

“I have opted for it six years now. I initiated this project six years ago when my husband spent three months abroad, consecutively, 90 days. And it shouldn’t be because we have all the experts in Nigeria. We only need a good platform.

“The hospital that is supposed to serve the First Family is serving like 35,000 people which is quite much. That’s why I insisted we should have a VIP Wing within the proximity of the presidential villa.

“This one is for the health and wellness of the First Family. They don’t need to go abroad now. They only need to maybe fly in experts to help our people. You know.

“So, no need for any leader to spend months and months abroad because of health care.”

In response, Sani said on Twitter that when the Buharis were in office, they never trusted or used the clinic, but they want the new administration to act differently.

He wrote, “They never trusted and patronised their Villa Clinic for eight years,they now furnished it and want the next President to do so.”
