[size=14pt]Four heart experts arrive for Yar'Adua [/size] By Elor Nkereuwem Four heart specialists from Saudi Arabia have arrived in the country as the health of the ailing president, Umaru Yar'Adua, deteriorated at the weekend, authoritative sources close to the Yar'Adua family said in Abuja yesterday. "The president is facing new health complications needing a fresh set of foreign medical experts to be rushed into Nigeria," said the sources who added that the experts arrived over the weekend to service the critically ill president who hasn't been seen in public since November, 2009. The medical doctors, who came into the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, by an EgyptAir flight on Saturday, were promptly cleared on the orders of the chief security officer to the president, Yusuf Tilde. Immigration officers, who spoke to NEXT in confidence, confirmed this. "We were aware of the movement but we offered no clearance to the doctors," a source said. It is believed that this step may not be unconnected to news making the rounds that Mr. Yar'Adua may be moved out of Nigeria following the malfunction of a set of life support equipment shipped into Nigeria in preparation for his return to the country after his 90 day medical vacation in Saudi Arabia. Turai's struggles Meanwhile, the wife of the president, Turai Yar'Adua, is grappling with the realities of the changes in the Presidency. The official residence of the president in the state house, which used to be a beehive of activity, is now ‘like a ghost town', sources in the Presidency revealed. Domestic aides told NEXT that there has also been a clamp down on domestic activities in the home of the president. It appears that most of the duties have now been outsourced. "Even the meals are now brought in from outside," our source said. "The cooks are now idle." This is not going down well Mrs. Yar'Adua, who has complained in many quarters of betrayal and abandonment. Apparently distraught, she spoke to some family associates of the betrayal of former friends, including some former presidents, while accusing the Nigerian media of trying to drive her to a state of delirium with their reports. "See all the bad things that they are now writing about us and about me," she complained to a family friend. "Is it fair? Do these people know God? We leave them to God and their conscience." The health status of the president continues to be shrouded in secrecy as Acting President Goodluck Jonathan and other members of the Executive Council of the Federation have still not been granted access to the president who is believed to be confined to an Intensive Care Unit within the state house. Last week, Godswill Akpabio, the governor of Akwa Ibom, while speaking on behalf of the Governors' Forum, had claimed that the ailing president was ‘recuperating', even though he showed no evidence to support his claims or any indication that any of the governors had seen the critically ill president since he was rushed out of Nigeria almost four months ago. http://234next.com/csp/cms/sites/Next/News/National/5537814-146/four_heart_experts_arrive_for_yaradua.csp |

Honestly, this Ya radua case is becoming hilarious. |
Re: Four Heart Experts Arrive For Yar'adua by Beaf: 4:55am On Mar 09, 2010 |
bgees: We should never make fun of the dying or the suffering. Yar Adua was always a hostage, just like the country is. My only criticism is the quality of people he surrounded himself with. |

I wish him good health, but he shouldn't have taken Obasanjo's bait. he could have resigned for the better . there is something wrong with him and he has himself to blame. |
