Buhari advised Nigerians
to desist from self-drug
administration, observing that
it is a common practice in the
country.


President Muhammadu Buhari
has urged Nigerians to have
more trust in Nigerian doctors.
He stated this while speaking
with Vice President Yemi
Osinbajo and other top
government officials at the
Presidential Villa on Friday,
March 10, hours after his arrival
from the United Kingdom.
"We have to trust our doctors
more and trust ourselves more,"
he said.
Buhari also advised the people
not to indulge in self-
medication.
"I think one of our terrible
things is self-drug
administration," he noted,
adding that "I can’t remember
this drug that Nigerians take so
much, very common."
The President, who just
returned from a medical
vacation in London, said British
people do not take drugs
carelessly.
"Over there they only take drugs
when it is absolutely necessary.
They don’t just swallow
everything," he added.

He recalled the technological
advancement in medical
treatment in the UK, saying "I
found out that technology is
going so fast that if you have a
lot of confidence you better
keep it because you need it.
"Blood transfusions, going to
the laboratories, and so on and
so forth, but I am very pleased
that we, when I say we I mean
the government and the people
all over are trying to keep with
technology," he added.
Buhari arrived the country at
exactly 7:41 a.m on Friday after
spending 49 days in London.
