Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to declare his health status immediately.
Soyinka, who spoke in Lagos on Friday, said doing this would put a stop to speculations on Bihari’s health and the attendant political manipulations.
Soyinka said: “Why is the President hiding his state of health?
“He’s supposed to understand he’s public property.
“Me I’m still private property, that’s why I’m not in Aso Rock.
“Once you are in Aso Rock, or you occupy a similar position, you have a responsibility to come out frankly to your citizens.
“Guarding your state of health like Donald Trump is guarding his tax returns, is not what we expect from a Nigerian president.”
