‘Proof of live’, Buhari hosts Tinubu, Akande in London (Photos)
In what appears as irrefutable evidence that President Muhammadu Buhari is really not in hospital, or incapacitated as has been suggested in some quarters, photos have appeared of the president playing host to some leaders on his party, the APC.
The leaders of the party that visited the president in his London residence, included former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, and a former chairman of the party, Chief Bisi Akande.

The rumour mills have been inundated with stories that the president is in a hospital, undergoing treatment for an undisclosed ailment, even though the presidency has repeatedly refuted such claims.
Presidency officials have always said at every opportunity that the president is hale and hearty, and not in any hospital.
The rumours became stronger when the president at the end of his ten-day vacation wrote to the Senate seeking an extension of his holiday, with no date as to when he is likely to resume his duties.

Well, here’s new evidence, Nigerians can now chill and be rest assured there’s nothing wrong with Buhari. Rumour mongers, thanks for feeding us with lies, you all can go to bed now.

Wao. But when did buhari start communicating to us with photos? Why can’t the visit be recorded as videos for us to watch? Nigeria will always remain Nigeria.

Why is it that nothing satisfy you Nigerians especially you the Yorubas ? We know your plans, buhari won’t die and there is no hope for osinbajo to be the president. So you people should wake up to reality. Buhari is alive. Ask your Tinubu when he is back home.

If the President refused to come back to Nigeria to take back his position, The Vice President will take over the Government 100% and nothing will stop it. Let him keep extending his holiday in London without telling us when he will come back.

Well, I have seen this picture, but it doesn’t look so real to me. The picture may have been taken in one of Buhari’s trips. This administration is full of lies, I can only belive what I see live, not even on TV screen, because they may go to the extent of using technology to make Nigerians think they are seeing Buhari
