Buhari/Nigerian Leaders' Medical Tourism Abroad: National Disgrace! by Okikiade(m): 8:48am On Jun 07, 2016 |
President Buhari Mohammadu budgeted billions of naira for Aso Rock Clinic. He has Prof. Isaac Folorunso Adewole as his Minister of Health. This is a Professor of Medicine and a Former Provost of the College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, and a Former Vice Chancellor, University of Ibadan. Surely Prof Adewole must have taught someone who had eventually turned Audiologist, if he is not one himself. Then, again, he - Elder Buhari has to still go to London UK, to treat ordinary ear infection? Can you imagine this, recently in my children's school, the school audiologist conducted the routine ear test for all the students, & it was discovered that my neighbor's daughter has low hearing ability due to fluid behind her ear-drum. The parents took her to the hospital & the ear-specialist told them the ear-system could normalize itself, & the fluid could be drained out. He asked the parents not to worry, that after three months they should bring her for another test, & if fluid is still there, then they will need to perform some surgery to drain the fluid & the girl can hear better! Lo and behold, the girl has done the surgery and she is hearing better. With our President going abroad to treat ordinary ear infectn, I am sure this young girl wouldn't 've had hope, were my neighbors Nigerians living in Nigeria. Why would Davido, who was still in the College when Buhari was the Military Head of States, not say Nigeria is fantastically corrupt? Now, tell me if this is not corruption of the mind, & an intentional waste of resources, a frivolous spending and mismanagement of resources (money & time), and unnecessary medical tourism? We could as well scrap the Ministry of Health, altogether? By the way, I hope Baba Buhari is paying for the trip from his own salary? And maybe he should take some money from his pocket also, to take Professor Adewole and some Nigerian Audiologists along, to go learn how to treat ear infection, such that next time this happens to Elder Buhari, he would be treated at home, in Aso Rock. If he has to pay for the trip from our commonwealth, then he is only slightly different from Dasuki !!! I am sure Nigerian State would pay far lesser, if he treats the ear infection at home, than treating it abroad. The cost of transportation alone would have been avoided! And he could have a post-ear-treatment holiday at Obudu Cattle Ranch! Whenever we have deep thinkers in power, Nigeria will start to get better. I wish the President a quick recovery from his ear infection. By the way, thank you - Mr President, for the recovery of those loots. We are waiting eagerly to know the looters, whenever you get the appropriate legal advice to do so. Remember, some of the looters actually took our money away through medical tourism abroad! But we trust you won't do that though! Olarinre Mofolorunso Salako, PhD |
