JONATHAN AND HIS CAMPAIGN TAKING A LAST STAND ... NOW WE KNOW THE SOURCE OF THAT WICKED AND MEAN PROSTATE CANCER RUMOUR : Clear issues concerning your health, PDP tells Buhari ... PMNews

General Muhammadu Buhari
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has called on Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), to clear the air on issues surrounding his health.
Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, Director of Media and Publicity of the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, made the call at a news conference on Sunday in Abuja.
Fani-Kayode said the call had become necessary since the health and certificate of Buhari had become major issues of discussion in the country.
He said the request was a standard practice across the world, adding that the PDP was not in any way antagonising Buhari by it.
Fani-Kayode maintained that the PDP was not making any allegation or accession, but that it was only asking Gen. Buhari to clear the air on issues concerning his health which had been under discussion for some time now.
“We are not impressed by the fact that his campaign organisation and his party have tried to speak for him on this matter.
“We would prefer that Gen. Buhari himself clears the air and tells Nigerians himself that he is not mortally ill.
“The rumour that he is suffering from prostate cancer is exceptionally worrying and it is incumbent upon each and every one of us to pray for him if this rumour is true,” he said.
He said that it was vital that a full disclosure of the state of Buhari`s health was made known to the people, especially in the face of the country`s recent history.
Fani-Kayode said that Nigerians deserved to know the truth before they would make their choice about who they wanted to vote for as their President, come February. 14.
He said that the days of hiding things like a presidential candidate`s health status from the Nigerian public was long over, and therefore urged Gen. Buhari to acknowledge this fact.
“In this day and age, nothing ought to be swept under the carpet. We are therefore constrained to urge him to prove to Nigerians that he is really as fit as a fiddle by taking a brisk walk,” he said.
Fani-Kayode said Buhari could do this by jogging around the perimeter of the stadium before any of his rallies.
He said this would go a long way in allaying the fears of many Nigerians and prove that the APC presidential candidate was fit, contrary to speculations about his health.
