Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu has debunked reports that he cleared the bill for the medical treatment of the president’s son, Yusuf Buhari.
Yusuf was flown abroad for further treatment after he and his friend, Bashir Gwandu, were severely injured along Gwarimpa road in Abuja on December 26, 2017.
Yusuf, who returned to the country last week, was initially admitted at Cedarcrest Hospital, Abuja.
Reacting to news that he funded the cost of the foreign trip and treatment, Kachikwu maintained his detractors were behind the claim.
He said it was the same persons who have been saying that he had intention to run for governor in his home state, Delta that was behind the rumour.
“When you add these developments together, then you can see my stand that it is pointless debating with people, who delight in lowly fantasy. They cannot transcend the unfortunate stations of pulling others down”, he told Thisday.
