In an interview with The Cable, Femi Adesina, said the report was not true and that President Buhari is as fit as a fiddle. He said President Buhari only yesterday received Anglican bishops who paid him a courtesy visit at the state house Abuja yesterday June 3rd “Didn’t you see pictures of him receiving Anglican bishops yesterday (Friday)? Did he look sick? The president is as fit as a fiddle. Anyone who says he is sick is telling lies. That is a figment of the person’s imagination. Just yesterday he received the primate of the Anglican Communion and arch bishops at the presidential villa. He also received former President Olusegun Obasanjo (pictured). He is hale and hearty. The imagination of whoever says that is on overdrive.”he said Asked why President Buhari had in recent times delegated functions to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Adesina said “The presidency is one. The president has a right to delegate duties to his deputy, who is the vice-president, and that is what he has done.”he said
