By

Reasons have been adduced to President Mohammadu Buhari’s preference for seeking medical attention in the UK other than in Nigeria.Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed cited the reasons in a live program ”˜Morning Crossfire’ on Nigeria Info Abuja station on Thursday.The program entertained calls from the public, one of which was from a displeased caller who tongue-lashed the All Progressives Congress-led administration for reneging on its promise to bar government officials from travelling overseas for medical treatment.Mohammed however responded thus: “My answer is very simple. Mr President is our father, he is the leader of the nation and I think he deserves the best in terms of medical treatment.”Other question hinged on why government is disregarding court orders as it pertains to the release of some detained political agitators, and the minister replied: “If it is a court order and the order is not appealed, then you have flouted the order.“But if the order is appealed, then it is not a final order. Also, you have to balance national security with the rule of law. In the case of Ifeanyi Ubah, I think it is neither here nor there.”The Federal Government got the praise of a caller for its achievements however, the high cost of food stuffs was considered unpleasant, particularly, grain foods, like rice.
