The Chairman, Senate Committee on Health, Dr. Lanre Tejuoso, on Saturday, said the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) mismanagement of the health sector caused President Muhammadu Buhari to seek medical treatment abroad for his ear infection.
The Senator, who represents Ogun Central Senatorial District, stated this while presenting empowerment materials to members of his constituency.
While saying that ruling All Progressive Congress had inherited a rotten system, the Senator noted that the PDP’s years of leadership destroyed the health sector
“Do you know the party of the President? It’s All Progressives Congress. Do you know the party that ruled for 16 years? It is PDP. We have just taken over. We inherited a rotten health sector; our budget is just about to start.”
“So we are still suffering from the PDP structure. If in one year’s time the president should go to UK for health, then you talk about why is he going.”
“In medicine, there is what they call second opinion. The President did not leave the day he was sick. He was in Nigeria for days, he was seeing our Nigerian doctors and after that, there was no improvement, he went for what we call second opinion to confirm whatever it is that is the problem. And thank God he’s back hale and hearty.”
