Presidency Says President Buhari Wiil Not Be Intimidated By Calls For Secession

The Presidency has criticized calls for secession, noting that President MUHAMMADU BUHARI will not be bullied.

Addressing journalists during a media parley at the headquarters of the All Progressives Congress in Abuja, presidential spokesman GARBA SHEHU said those advocating for secession are the problem of the country.

He said although the Federal Government is working to address challenges being faced in the country, those calling for secession and national conference are unelectable people who do not care for the nation's democracy.

He said it's a sham noting that Nigerians want to be one.

Gov Obaseki Pays N1.5m Medical Bills For 3 Albinos

The Edo Government has released N1.5 million to offset the medical bills of three Persons with Albinism (PWA) suffering from skin cancer in the state.

Odigie said the money was made available from the N5 million Health Care Intervention Fund approved by Gov. Godwin Obaseki to the foundation early in the year.

She said the beneficiaries, including Mrs Priscilla Chikelu, Mrs Margaret Omorogbe and Mrs Doris Olomu, were each entitled to N500,000 hospital bills.

Odigie, however, regretted that Omorogbe died on April 12 at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu.

She said the fund would be given to her family members to offset her medical bills and bring her corpse to Edo for burial.

She commended Obaseki for alleviating the plight of PWA in the state and making health care accessible to all.

Odigie also commended the state Ministry of Health for facilitating the release of the intervention fund.

She urged PWA to always avoid the midday sun, saying it is injurious to their skin.

“PWA can prevent coming down with skin cancer by avoiding the midday sun, using protective clothing and applying sunscreen lotions (creams with SPF 50 and above),’’ she said.
