A group under the aegis of Niger Delta Youth Democrats for Good Governance has called on Nigerian to shun rumours and other unsubstantiated negative reports on the health status of President Muhammadu Buhari.
This is even as it has urged the presidency to continue to allay growing uncertainties and re-assure the nation with accurate information on the president’s condition.
President of the group, Comrade Thompson Robert Fuoye, who gave this admonition after an emergency meeting to access the state of the nation in Bayelsa state, equally called on Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa state to forget political differences and use his position, as the oldest serving governor in the south to convene a meeting of the zonal governors in Yenagoa, to deliberate on matters affecting the region.

Fuoye, who is also a strong contender for the President of the Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) in the forthcoming IYC elections, said: “I want to caution Nigerians to shun rumours surrounding the health of President Buhari and also advise the presidency to continue to give Nigerians accurate and timely information on his health.
“We all know that death is inevitable and the presidency has done well by debunking the initial rumours, but they must continue to inform us because the president is our property and we deserve to know his condition always.
“I also want to urge Governor Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa state to use his position as a political leader and the oldest serving governor in the region to call his brother governors of the region together in Yenagoa, to deliberate on how to move the Niger Delta forward.
“The federal government has now indicated willingness in the development of the region and this is the time for Governor Dickson to play the leadership role which his position has conferred on him and put political differences aside in the interest of the Niger Delta.”
