Buhari Healthier Than Many Younger Nigerians – Garba Shehu

By Farouk Mohammed

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, says President Muhammadu Buhari enjoys a better health status than many young Nigerians.

Shehu said Buhari’s selling point is his simplicity, honesty, incorruptibility and personal integrity.

He made these known in an article released on Thursday titled ‘A President’s 32’ TV’.

It reads in part: “President Muhammed Buhari has been known to be a disciplined retired military General who lived a simple and austere life devoid of ostentation.

“He is not known to have the common vices associated with politics and politicians. He does not smoke or drink alcohol.

“He didn’t belong to rich or royal families. He is known to have grown up with an enthusiastic desire to serve and his choice to serve in the army was not, therefore, by accident.”
