Nigerian Traditional Medicine Practitioners Say They Can Heal Buhari

The National Association of Nigerian Traditional Medicine Practitioners (NANTMP) has said it can cure President Muhammadu Buhari.

In an interview with Punch, patron of the NANTMP, Adesunmiboye Fawawo, said that his members could cure the president of any ailment and the association would be ready to offer its expertise if the president chooses to consult them.

He noted that many Nigerians die because they failed to patronize traditional medicine, as they prefer orthodox medicine:

“President Muhammadu Buhari is our national leader and we must guide him with all jealousy. We are a national body which is recognised by the Federal Government. The association was established during the reign of former President Olusegun Obasanjo and he uses our products. You can see how strong he is even at his age.

We have been able to treat patients whose families had lost hope on their recovery. Unfortunately, we have not been consulted to treat President Buhari. We can treat him and the government must realise that traveling abroad for treatment may not solve the issue.”

According to him, some herbal products are being exported to Europe and the United States while some herbal products are in hospitals including seleru agb.

Also, the Assistant Secretary General of the NANTMP association, Dr. Ade Adeagbo lamented about the neglect of traditional medicine in the country, saying Nigeria is wasting a huge amount on importation of drugs.

He suggested that government should invest in local production of herbal mixtures instead of wasting money to import synthetic drugs which according to him had many negative side effects. He concluded saying:

“The Federal Government recently launched Change Begin with me, I believe this change should also start by making sure that the President is treated locally. It will save fund and reduce and douse tension.”
