What Nigerians Have To Say:
Following the development, some Nigerians have taken to the micro-blogging platform, Twitter to react.
While others dragged Tinubu to the mud, others defended him.
See some reactions below:
@oluomoofderby: “No president in our history travelled abroad for medical healthcare more than President Buhari.
“I expect Tinubu to break that record, if he becomes the President. Why is he travelling abroad for medical treatment. What happened to all the hospitals in Lagos state?”
@brigitomo: “African leaders should stay in African for medical treatment. They should use the services they put in place.
Their lives are not worth more than any other African’s life. The West really needs to stop promoting medical tourism and exploiting African wealth.”
@Afolabiyetty: “Anyone can fall sick, let’s not try to cause unnecessary alarm for Nigerians.
Do y’all think political campaigns is an easy task, even a strong healthy 25-40yrs will need rest and medical attention after a lengthy political campaigns.
Let’s support BAT with our prayers.
IRE O!”
@blackveron: “Of course he e go Europe for medical check ups which shows Nigeria medical practice is not trusted or even no good medical facilities in the country and this are part of the people leading Us in Nigeria.”
@cbn_governorAkin1: “Liar. Person no fit go on vacation again? Werey people. When Obi traveled una no shout. When Atiku travelled una no cry. Ok now. Tinubu is the main point.”
