The national leadership of the
All Progressives Congress (APC), Youths Renaissance has faulted the

Group to disclose the health status of President Muhammadu Buhari.
APC to SNG - No one can force Buhari to reveal his health status
The group claimed that after a
review of the demand reached the by SNG, it concluded that President
Buhari breached no law by not disclosing his ailment to the public.
Daily
Post reports that the Save Nigeria Group (SNG), had on Wednesday,
February 8, given the Presidency a 74-hour ultimatum, to provide full
information on the health status of President Muhammadu Buhari.
In a letter titled “Request for information on President Muhammadu Buhari’s health status”
and addressed to the Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Abubakar
Malami, SNG said it was important for the information to be provided,
to ease tension in the country.
Speaking
on the matter, the North Central Coordinator of APC Youths Renaissance
Honourable Abubakar Yakubu asked the Save Nigeria Group to tell the
world which section of the Nigerian constitution has the President
violated by not disclosing his health situation to Nigerians? Saying the
President as a public servant still enjoys his right to personal
liberty which must not be invaded.
He
further noted that if the President should disclose his ailment to the
public, it should be done out of choice and not out of necessity.
The
group said they are ready to stage a counter protest in defence of Mr.
President if the Save Nigeria Group decides to hold their protest at the
expiration of the 74-hour ultimatum given to the Federal Government.
