The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu has cautioned Nigerians not to take advantage of President Buhari’s health to score cheap points.

Buhari, on Sunday, May 7, 2017, travelled to London for an extensive medical check, and according to reports, his date of return is not known.

The APC national leader called on Nigerians to support the President by praying for him to get well,

Tinubu also said Nigerians should not use the issue of Buhari’s health to create tension in the country.

According to Daily Post, he said: “Nigeria is a place of numerous challenges and the home of vast human potentials. Our greatest challenge has always been how to best direct our vast potentials so that we overcome the challenges that plague us. This cardinal challenge is why the APC was formed and why the party presented then General Muhammadu Buhari as its standard bearer. The people rightly chose him as their president, believing he was the best person to make Nigeria into a better nation.

“His electoral victory was historic. More importantly, like most Nigerians, I believed his presidency represented a historic mission to right many of our nation’s wrongs. I still believe so. The previous administration treated Boko Haram softly, appearing to view the terrorists as part of their political equation rather than a lethal threat to national security. President Buhari has gone after Boko Haram without condition and without fear. He has pushed them back, saving lives and giving northern Nigeria a chance to breathe again the air of peace and normalcy.”
