Adesina: Buhari could have been long dead

In another development, Legit.ng reported that former presidential aide, Femi Adesina, revealed that Muhammadu Buhari’s continued medical treatment in the UK was essential for his survival, even before his presidency.

Speaking during a live tribute broadcast, Adesina defended the late president’s overseas care, citing the limitations of Nigeria’s healthcare system at the time.

The remarks reignited public discourse around elite access to foreign treatment and the state of local medical infrastructure.
