Wike, Fayose also need to visit Buhari in London –PDP
The Peoples Democratic Party says members of the opposition party should also pay a visit to ailing President Muhammadu Buhari in London.
According to the PDP National Youth Frontier (PDPNYF) visiting the presdeint should not be the preserve of members of the ruling party, APC alone.
The group therefore suggested that governors Nyesome Wike of Rivers, and Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti should also be allowed to pay the president a visit in London.
Recall that a national leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and a former national chairman of the party, Chief Bisi Akande, as well as the Senate President, Bukola Saraki and Speaker of the House of Representative, Yakubu Dogara all visited the president at the Abuja House in London.

However, the PDPNYF said on its twitter handle, that “Buhari health is not the APC internal affairs alone, therefore PDP youths recommending that Fayose & Wike should also visit him in London”.
The PDPNYF is a registered group with the PDP directorate of youth affairs as a party affiliate organization at the national level.
President Muhammadu Buhari who left Nigeria for a ten-day vacation on January 19, 2017 is still not back to the country 27 days after, even as he insists that he would not return until his doctors give him the green light.

That’s true. Wike and fayose are the people who can authenticate the truth we have been wanting to know. If these two can snap photographs with him in London, I will extra believe that buhari is fine because I know fayose won’t lie about his health.

You are stupid. You think if these two flagrant governors show interest to visit baba buhari, you think baba buhari will snub them? No. Baba is wiser than that, he will even host them specially because they had come to make jest but he will surprise them.

Sincerely wise suggestions. He is the president of Nigeria and not of apc . so pdp delegates should go as well to confirm his health.

Very soon other parties would nominate their representatives and propose to visit Buhari in London too.
That will be stressful, I’d rather suggest We should move the country, Nigeria to London, since our president has been in London for over 27 days.
Let’s go and continue Nigeria in London.

PDP will never seize to amaze me ??. Wike and Fayose should go and visit Buhari in London? I don’t trust those guys, they will poison Buhari on getting to London, especially Fayose who’s state is yet to receive allocation.
