 Governor of Ekiti state, Ayo Fayose, says President Buhari is currently on life support. The governor said this in a statement released today June 28th.  ''Today, it makes 53 days since our President; Muhammadu Buhari left Nigeria to attend to his health challenges abroad. No official information as to his whereabouts and his state of health. Like every other Nigerians, I do not wish the president dead, I have therefore maintained dignified silence since we were told that the President embarked on his second medical trip abroad this year.
