Presidency debunks Yusuf Buhari’s death rumour


The Presidency has refuted claims on social media that President Buhari's son, Yusuf, has died. There were reports on social media early this morning that Yusuf, who survived a ghastly motorbike accident in December last year and is currently receiving medical attention in a German hospital, had passed on,
President Buhari's Personal Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, took to her twitter page to debunk the report. She said the news is fake. See her tweet below.

Yusuf Buhari was involved in an accident on December 26 in Abuja when he, along with a friend, was racing in the Nigerian capital and he veered off the road in the process.
According to the Presidency, Yusuf broke a limb and had an injury to the head. He later underwent surgery at Cedarcrest Hospital in Abuja.
While there were rumours that he was flown abroad for further treatment, sources at the Presidency insisted the surgery done in Nigeria was enough.
