Bishop of Owo Diocese, Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, Rt.
Revd. James Oladunjoye, has admonished President Muhammadu Buhari to
vacate his office for someone else if his health is continuously failing
him.
Speaking at the second session of the Twelfth Synod of the Anglican
Diocese of Owo, on Friday, the Bishop also berated the Presidency for
refusing to disclose Buhari’s health status.
Oladunjoye said a situation where the President had spent several months abroad had not helped the country.
He noted that it was wrong for Buhari to conceal his health status as he was no longer a private person.
Oladunjoye said, “We thank God for the President and for the way he
had been ruling according to the law, but there is something wrong that
we want him to address.
“He has been ill for so many months in his tenure and so, is it not
proper for the country to know his health condition as he is no more a
private personality?
“He is public property and if he is not strong enough to continue as
the leader of this country, it is better for him to resign so that
another qualified individual can take up the office legitimately.”
