Yar'adua not here - Hospital says
WRITTEN BY ATIKA BALAL & SHARAFA DAUDA      
WEDNESDAY, 06 JANUARY 2010 11:16


Forty days since President Umaru Yar'adua left the country to seek medical attention abroad, more mystery was added to the story yesterday  when an official of the King Faisal Hospital and Research Centre in Jeddah told the British Broadcasting Corporation [BBC] that Yar'adua was not in the hospital. Sources in the Nigerian Consulate in Jeddah however denied the claim to Daily Trust, saying Yar'adua was still in the hospital.

The  BBC Hausa service programme quoted an unnamed hospital official as telling their correspondent that Yar'adua, who has been receiving medical attention there since he left this country, is no longer with them. The hospital official also refused to say whether the president was at the hospital earlier. He referred the BBC reporters to the Nigerian embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia,

But phone calls made by its reporters to the office of the Nigerian ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Abdullahi Garba Aminchi, were not answered, the BBC said.

Efforts by Daily Trust to obtain a comment from some government officials were rebuffed last night. Several calls placed to Ambassador Aminci's telephones were also not answered. Yar'adua's Special Adviser of Communication Olusegun Adeniyi also did not answer text messages sent to him. However, Information and Communications Minister Professor Dora Akunyili, told Daily Trust that she did not know anything about the report which claimed Yar'adua was no longer in the Saudi hospital. She said, "I don't know the report you are talking about. Where did you see it? Do you believe it?"

Meanwhile, an Abuja Federal High Court yesterday fixed January 14 to hear three suits challenging the absence of President Umaru Musa Yar'adua from office on health grounds since November 2009.

GGNK, ka bari kawai, this issue is has now metamophorse into
an international affair, because from all indication, neither the
legislative nor executive arm is interested in discussing the topic
of our president.  since the west are the advocators of democracy,
they better come in to help us build a formidable democracy.

the constitution of this country is very clear on the powers of the
president, the saga which generated a lot of roar between legal
scientist is just a tip of the ice berg.  so many similar constitutional
violation exists in the aso rock but who are you to say NO?

as far as I am concern, it is another big minus to arewa, since it is
assumed that we are doing to rotational something.

yar'adua should resign and face his health, you cannot eat your cake
and have it at the same time.  nigeria needs a functional president,
thats why US did not hesitate to black-list us among terrorist nation,
which if mr. president would have been around, it will be a different
tag.

Salam,

DB, what you said is the bitter truth our elite don't like, or even hate most. President 'Yar Adua cannot rule this country. Let the dying ailment man look for medication; better for him and his family.

But because of sheer hierocracy, whenever anyone from this part of the country made this public he will be frowned at and diatribe will be heard on radio stations against him, foolishly thinking he "blasphemed". Recently they even had Masari's house burnt down because he said that.

Please Mr. President, you know it that you cannot, thus do peacefully resign. Whats there then?

Allah dai ya gyara mana kasar nan, amin.

I believe the PDP are not very keen on letting yar'adua go.
The truth of the matter is,if he resigns and Jonathan becomes president then come 2011,Jonathan will definately want to run for president. This will however,affect the zoning system the PDP has adopted and agreed that the north should produce the president come 2011. It is therefore going to be catastrophic for the party to field Jonathan for president in 2011 because the northen caucus will surely oppose.
Maybe this is the beginning of the end of PDP.

This might rightly be the case, GGNK. But did those so-called elite turn deaf ears to peoples' fear and warning over 'Yar Adua's selection by Obasanjo, that he wants him dead on the seat so giving South an unchallenged chance to occupying the throne?

So I hope. But who do hope to rise? Remember: they are virtually birds of the same feather.
