It is completely normal for any human being to get sick from time to time. It is a reminder that we are mortals’. Mr. President is a mortal who can be sick at a split of seconds; he is not a super human. However, I think why his health condition is becoming a national debate to some sorts is because of the kind of system of government we run. A presidential system of government presupposes that the entire administration is centered on just a ‘person’; this is unlike the parliamentary system of government.
Again, the presidential media aids are not helping matters as they are keeping the health condition of Mr President secret, creating room for speculations among Nigerians as to what has happened to the man they elected as a leader. Sincerely, the President needs some medical holiday as suggested by some esteemed Nigerians and anybody denying him of such opportunity is an enemy of the President and the nation.
The people who are giving fake prophecy that if something happens to Mr President that the nation will be in a state of crisis, should go and sleep because nothing will happen, the heavens will not fall. Ours is a constitutional democracy and the document has detailed the conditions to follow in every situation. It is this kind of mentality that will make some people gather somewhere to decide the fate of Nigerians because they have ruled this country in the past, thus creating a mystical barricade around themselves when we have institutional framework that will handle crisis situations.
The health status of Mr President should not just be a family affairs because he is a public ‘property’ and the people of Nigeria deserve to know his health condition, so that when they pray, they know what they are actually praying for. If the President is sick, Nigeria is sick. Honestly the man should take a medical break; we have an able Vice President.

A beautiful movie showing us the love of God and His ever standing faithfulness to His children. Elizabeth and Tony Jordan were two successful people who were religious but hadn't known what it was like for God to minister unto them. They had a big house, nice jobs, with Tony as a pharmaceutical salesman and Elizabeth as a realtor. They had a daughter called Danielle. Despite the wealthy lifestyle, Tony was cold towards his family. He refused to give money to his wife's sister and was verbally abusive towards her. He treated Danielle no less than a property gotten from one of his illegal deals.
