The Minister of Interior, Lt-Gen. Abdulrahman Dambazau (rtd); his FCT ministry counterpart, Alhaji Mohammed Bello; and the Senate President’s wife, Mrs. Toyin Saraki; stayed throughout the night of Tuesday till Wednesday at the hospital with Hajia Aisha Buhari.
The source added “While the doctors were working to stabilize him, Dambazau kept appealing to the doctors to do everything possible to stabilize Yusuf, saying the president would find it very difficult to bear the pain if anything happens to his son. The president had directed that Yusuf be treated at this hospital for now. In any case he is still in coma with serious pain; so, he cannot survive long-flight for now. He still needs few days to come out of the coma before any consideration of flying him out of the country for more medical attention,’’
Meanwhile security personnel have been station in and around the hospital while vehicular and human traffic are properly screened before they get in and out of the hospital and its environs.
This is a real difficult time for the president and his family. His first son Musa is deceased and in 2012 he lost his first daughter from and now his only son is fighting for his life.....(Its got to be really tough)!
Meanwhile, Yusuf's sister, Zahra Buhari-Indimi has thanked friends and fans for their prayers and encouragement after her brother's accident. Zahra described Yusuf has a great guy.
"Honestly, Yusuf is great guy. You will never hear him do wrong to anyone. Such an amazing soul." she wrote.
