SaharaReporters has learned from reliable sources at the Nigerian Presidency that President Muhammadu Buhari, who has been in the UK since January 19, is receiving “intense treatment” for a renewed flare-up of prostate issues. He had undergone surgical treatment for prostate cancer soon after losing the 2011 presidential election to former President Goodluck Jonathan.

In addition to his UK doctors, President Buhari has been under the care of two Nigerian physicians, Dr. Suhayb Sanusi Rafindadi, who is his Chief Personal Physician, and Dr. Ugorji Ogbonna, who had a medical practice for many years in Kano before relocating to the UK. Even though he is from the southeast of Nigeria, Dr. Ogbonna is very close to numerous powerful northern politicians, and one of his sons converted to Islam, according to a source. While Dr. Rafindadi accompanied the president on his medical trips abroad and Dr. Ogbonna often liaise with Mr. Buhari’s physicians in the UK to arrange for his treatments.

Our sources indicated that Mr. Buhari’s original surgical treatment for prostate cancer had been declared successful. However, when a nagging ear infection forced President Buhari to visit his longtime physician in the UK last year, the prognosis led the president to seek two separate medical opinions, in France and later Germany. Doctors in both countries reportedly told him it was urgent to see his doctors in the UK. Subsequently, Mr. Buhari, who was visiting France for a conference, moved from Paris to London, declaring that he needed a vacation.

Mr. Buhari’s UK doctors advised that he needed to stay put in London for another surgery, but the president bowed to pressure from members of his inner circle and decided to make a premature return to Abuja out of political expediency. However, before President Buhari left London, his doctors there removed polyps from his nostrils in a surgical procedure to ease his breathing.

In 2016, President Buhari made trips to the UK in February and June to consult his UK doctors on a variety of health issues, including his ear infection, said our sources.


President Muhammadu Buhari
SaharaReporters learned that President Buhari currently receives intense treatment for a prostate-related ailment. The treatment at a point severely affected his voice and appetite. He has progressively lost weight and has had to be force-fed on occasion on the orders of his doctors. One source said Mr. Buhari’s treatments had been compounded by his age, which his UK doctors believe to be more than 80 rather than his official “age” of 74 years old.

Information gleaned from our sources indicated an attempt to obfuscate the precise nature of Mr. Buhari’s illness, signaling efforts by competing factions around the president to keep the Nigerian public uninformed. According to our sources, four different versions of President Buhari's condition were being circulated. One version, traced to his wife, Aisha Buhari, is that the president has “internal organ” issues.

Our sources disclosed that a cabal led by President Buhari's cousin, Mamman Daura, reportedly sent Mrs. Aisha Buhari away from the UK, asking her to make a temporary visit to Saudi Arabia. To justify Aisha Buhari’s exit from London, Mr. Daura reportedly claimed that the president’s condition appeared to worsen each time his wife was around him. He reportedly told Mrs. Buhari that part of her husband's illness was a result of “a spiritual attack,” and asked her to proceed to Saudi Arabia to pray for him. From Saudi Arabia, Mrs. Buhari returned to Nigeria about two weeks ago. One source claimed that she had not returned to London ever since.

Our sources said Mr. Daura often handled the daily briefing of select Presidency officials about the president's health. According to them, the president’s cousin continues to claim that Mr. Buhari was only exhausted and needed adequate rest before returning to Nigeria ready to take over the mantle of leadership once again.

Speaking anonymously with SaharaReporters, two close aides claimed that President Buhari was dogged by “severe stomach upsets” that have refused to go away. One of them said Mr. Buhari suffered from a recurring bacteria infection “that is being flushed out daily.”

As SaharaReporters revealed last weekend, the doctors treating Mr. Buhari in the UK have told him in clear terms that he ought to shelf any plans to return to serious work and stay back in London for as long as four months to receive a full course of treatment. One source indicated that members of the president’s inner circle were yet to fully embrace the doctors’ recommendation and communicate the information to Nigerians because they fear the loss of political influence.

On his part, President Buhari had reportedly told his inner political circle that he was in no hurry to return to Nigeria, adding that he was willing to let the expert advice of his doctors to prevail. However, some of his die-hard associates have not given up plotting to daily to convince him to return to Abuja in defiance of medical advice.

President Buhari reportedly communicates regularly with Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, encouraging him to carry on the task of governing Nigeria while he undertakes necessary treatment needed to keep him alive

Truth will come out one day;just a matter of time

Sahara Reporters at it again!

What does the constitution say about such long breaks and refusal of the president to share his medical record? If there is a loop hole here then that needs to be fixed now. The country cannot be played by a few idiots looking out for their own pockets. Nigeria must move on if Buhari is not capable of running the government.

you still want that vegetable to come back, you be enemy of the state and the naija people

which his UK doctors believe to be more than 80 rather than his official “age” of 74 years old

^^ apparently bubu is way above 80. He looks way older than OBJ, and he's here giving us his football age. Is there now football age in politics

This man want out to take care of himself but his hovering demons won't allow that. I don't believe that Buhari will trade his life on the altar of politics just for some stup!d political gains and influences.

You see why Nigeria is a funny a country, the president has been out for months and we have Osibanjo acting on his behalf NOW who is acting on behalf Osibanjo cuz I believe the office of Vice President has its on functions too. All of a sudden the ones that claim patriots have lost thier voice. Foolish and ill driven patriotism

Eyaaaaaaa I wish buhari what he wished biafrans. So sorry for him. look @ all the money @ his possession yet no hope for him, for those who think money will help them,have a rethink. Money is failing people. I just hope power returns to the south(christian) immediately, next month and let it stay in the south till 2027. It is a known fact that no muslim will last in aso rock as president in this civil and democratic dispensation.

An old man that should stay home in Daura and be playing with his grand children under a boabab tree with the musky overpowering stench of cow dung surrounding them in bliss decided not to do the needful, but instead chose to come and occupy space in aso rock just so he can totally kill this country before he goes to hell.

From Prostate to nose polyps to ear infection to cancer to undisclosed and now finally to poison according to some people.
Ok continue. Maybe its a full state burial he simply wants.

Everyone cannot be Mugabe!

Nigeria needs to rewrite her constitution; there should be provision for resignation after 45 days due to sickness or impairment.
You need not to defend everything this government; please think for yourself sir.

Pay attention to SR, there are the voice piece of white imperialists on African affairs.
After the white imperialists poisoned Buhari and put him in a coma, their job is to keep Nigerians deceived and come up scenario of the situation that would prepare Nigerians for eventuality of announcement of passing of PMB.
"Intense treatment" , "new flare up" is sensitising us to making the announcement within next few days.

Essentially SR is the tool that the white imperialists who assassinated Buhari will use to manipulate our perspective to keep us deceived and sensitized to the eventuality of announcement of Buhari's passing.

Expect the announcement to occur within the next few days.

How do I know ? white imperialists installed Osinbajo as APC vice president knowing they will eventually make him president after the assassinate mr president by poisoning.

NAss leadership who are sponsored by the same white imperialists is working with other conspirators in APC to ensure power is transferred seamlessly to Osinbajo whose brief from white imperialists who are installing him, is to arrest and scatter all that PMB has put in place to develop Nigeria.

NAss will likely not pass the budget until Osinbajo has appointed his own ministers and written the rewritten budget the budget to suit is imperialist backers.

This is why this story from SR should be taken very seriously.

Oga do you believe in this poison lies.. I sorry for most of us thinking blindly. A man who health records were circulated during electioneering, now he has been poisoned. Please reason it out,who will poisoned a 74+ years oldman?

What is the probability that a world leader would die in office, - impossibly small, now how impossible that we lose 3 leaders in office due to mystery illnesses in space of 18 years, all our most inept and corrupt leaders always avoid illness and serve out their terms.

Do you not realise white imperialists are sabotaging us and assassinating any president who tries to fix Nigeria.

Yaro, what are you saying? Buhari is well over 80. And at that age, he ought to be resting and enjoying his retirement. If he was in the civil service, or private sector, he would have retired at 70 years at most.

Ruling over an household is not easy for a young man of 30 with a wife half as beautiful as Aisha Buhari let alone an 80+ man with a young and very beautiful wife. Now if ruling over an household is not easy, how about carrying the brunt of over 200 million Nigerians on your shoulders.

Whatever sickness he is having is only peculiar to people of his age and it's only made worse by the stress of ruling the most populous black nation. Forget your white imperialist bullcrap.

it is there in the constitution. 60 days. But the resignation can only be activated by the federal executive council ,which is appointed by the president.

That is how they fool us, by promoting false news of prior health issues, then they kill our competent leaders

Do you know how sick Yardua looked; also you cant deny PMB has not been sick...Only God kills and make alive. No one can kill lala nada

So God must love killing only those leaders that attempt to fix Nigeria or other African countries, and spares the corrupt useless ones that destroy our country.
