Why Buhari Can’t Reject Madagascar’s Herbal Solution For COVID-19 – Onochie Reveals

President Muhammadu Buhari’s Personal Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, on Wednesday said it would be “unAfrican” if the president rejects the COVID-19 herbal solution from Madagascar.

Onochie made the remark while faulting the position of the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria, PSN, on Nigeria’s acceptance of Madagascar’s COVID-19 cure.

Sam Ohuabunwa, PSN President, had yesterday said Nigeria displayed that it has no shame by opting to import herbal COVID-19 drugs from Madagascar.

Ohuabunwa stressed that though PSN was not against a new drug that is proven to cure COVID-19 or any other disease, they were totally appalled that Nigeria was about to spend scarce foreign exchange.

Reacting, Onochie clarified that PSN was wrong in its submission, stressing that Madagascar had given the solution to African countries as a gift.

In a tweet, she wrote:

Meanwhile, one of Buhari’s media aides, Tolu Ogunlesi, had maintained that the president did not “order” the alleged COVID-19 solution from Madagascar.
