Yar’Adua has heart problem

allah ya baka lafiya umaru.

may the good Lord heal Mr president. After all he is human.

may the good Lord heal Mr president. After all he is human.

finally......the truth but not the whole truth.

Abeg mr President no mind them, remain there till u die, who no wan state burial, who no like luxurious Air ambulance, don't mind, u don need these people like us around u, weather we vote u or not in the next elector u know u will surely win...

Pericarditis is a recognised complication of end stage renal failure, and could ,sometimes, imply a poor long term outcome from kidney disease. The advent of haemodialysis has been of significant benefit to this condition.Segun Adeniyi, has, inadveretently, thus confirmed that the president does suffer from end stage kidney disease.I hope His physicians in Saudi are competent to manage this condition, especially with the likelihood of it being associated with collection of fluid around the heart(pericardial effussion).

Adeniyi, continue the good job. Why was he not promoted to the post of Mr Re-branding or Information Minister? May God give Mr. President Umaru the strength to withstand the pain. I wish you soonest recovery. Nobody is beyond any ailment.

let all of us begin to pray for mr president. he must not die now for the situation will be worse for nigeria. its like begin again for us. u will not die in jesus name

Further treatment of acute pericarditis varies, depending on the cause. For people who have kidney failure, increasing the frequency of dialysis usually results in improvement. People who have cancer may respond to chemotherapy or radiation therapy, but often, the pericardium is surgically removed. If a bacterial infection is the cause, treatment consists of antibiotics and surgical drainage of pus from the pericardium.

Pericarditis is an inflammation of the pericardium. It can cause chest pain which increases with breathing and movement. Fluid build up between the heart and the pericardium..please hope his aides have been keeping cigarettes away from him

At last, one is hearing from the government about Umaru’s health. Yara”dua pele ooooo

I hope this is not shorthand for 'the man died'?

is it possible to get a kidney transplant?

lets write a programme for Mr Yara**** dual core: start;-----------: ctrl+alt+del= task manager; processes, select: presidnt.Nig1.900000000000000000Kbps; vista, right click;end prescess. YESSSSSSSS. END. May God never Del. you bt may He Shift del you from Nig. AMEN. end of the progam. obasanjo you appologise to nigerians on bhalve of Yara dual core for makind this sick man a president. God is watching you oooooooooo. take time.

I wish the President great health and quick recovery. For all those who mock the President becauseof his health, or who wish him death. Hmmm... There are a few things you don't wish on people even on your enemies, one is ill-health. Imagine the poor man in pains, no one can help you bear the pain no matter who you are. Those who make sly comments, beware ill-health may be coming your way. I never realised that Nigerians with culture and religiousity could utter such hatred against someone like the president of our country. What a shame and what a disgrace you are. You can't be a responsible person nor deserve to be ina responsible position if you have such bad bile.

why are nigerians so wicked?

I just read from Reuters that the VP has assumed powers of the president.At this point Umoru is dead or comatose.The north will replace Jonathan with D.mark.open your eyes.

Infact, this Saudi Doctors should embark on kidney transplant to save our President. this man has sufferred enough... This news of our presidents' illness today president flown to Germany and Saudi is a big slap on Nigeria. Why can't our Presi and his cohots equip @least one hospital here in Nija... that will help keep this illness a little bit secret... abeggggggggggg

if yar'adua is sick, that makes him human, all we can do is to pray for him so the good Lord can grant him speedy recovery. he has shown himself to be averagely capable so far in governance; even better than some past presidents. so i implore whoever has nothing to say to shut-up and first try to rule over his four walls before challenging someone ruling over a 100 million people. MAY GOD GRANT YOU SPEEDY RECOVERY, YAR'ADUA...............YOU HAVE THE BREATH OF LIFE AT YOUR DISPOSAL, BECAUSE HIS GRACE HAS MADE IT ABUNDANT FOR YOU BY OUR PRAYERS.

Get well soon, Mr President Sir! @ Kayus, u r sooooooo funny..lol!

Presi, you shall not die but live to testify the goodness of the Lord... the lord is your strenght... you're healed in Jesus name

he will surely be fine with a transplants , should also try growing new kidney in the lab to avoid rejection.

so they didnt know it was necessary for them to tell the nation what was going on with him until a rumor of his death was spread across the nation...thats bad!...i wish him good health and a sound recovery.

@Eleniyan you be Doctor..abi you are part of the estacode chopping team? I tell you, it is not that our President could not be healed but all those around him who for the third time (see third term again ooo, or how many times has he been to Saudi) have collected estacode, are to blame. It took them this long to come out with what ails our dear Umaru; just because of foreign exchange. How unfair Nigerians can be. I have sent 'hired healers' to the villa and they will arrive to start the healing process just to shame those estacode-chasing evil servants. @Onyeasili You are the ONLY correct, fast, thinking Nigerian. Kudos men you are free to join our Palm Wine Thinkers Club based near Aso Stone in Abuja I recommend the new EFCC ( I mean the Emotional Failure Correction Commission) for all the medical officers in the Presidency.

MY THE LORD ALMIGHT BE WHIT YOU IN JESUS AMEN.

and the man died

May Allah give him & other Sick Nigerians at home and abroad their health. Amen

I wish him quick recovery.I think he need a very good rest.The job of managing over 150 lion population is not easy.More especially,as it concerns some one like our President whose health condition is not sound.People of Nigeria,lets keep prayiing for our President for quick recovery.There is nothing that God cannot do. Gambo

President Yar Adua, God shall see you thru ds, amiiiiiiiiiiin

Nobody wants Yar Adua to die. We just don't want him to be President. I'm really sorry about his health and all, and I really hope he gets taken care of properly and I really hope he recovers fully, but can the man JUST STEP DOWN???? He wasn't even elected into office. PDP RIGGED him in. The fact that he's even President right now is in clear violation of the Constitution. On top of that he hasn't done anything useful as President. I sincerely hope he makes a full recovery but Nigerians don't have time for this nonsense. We want our country to run properly and we want it to run NOW.

Why does this man not just step aside from the pressidency so that he can concentrate on getting better, and Nigeria can finally get a healthy person to manage her affairs. I have all the synpathy in the world for the man, but we also have a nation of 150 million people to administer. It is only the PDP that can benefit from this unfortunate situation because while the man is unfit to rule, the miscreants are busy getting rich by underhand means, all in Emperor Yar's name.

My fellow country men and women...Yardie boy our dear Presido is suffering from a generalised inflamation of the blood vessels. EVERY and ANY organ in Yardie boy's body could be involved. His kidneys have failed and he must have undergone at least two transplants by now, without that he would be dead. He undergoes dialysis regulary at weekly intervals. Look at the picture of the back of his hands, you would see the trauma caused by the frequent puncture of the houseman's vein. The problem with his condition is that he has to be maintained on antiinflammatory drugs (steroids) to control the inflammation. The side effects are frightening. Should he resign? NO, but he has to delegate lots of his functions to his deputy. The problem is that the Katsina Mafia around him do not allow this, thereby putting unecessary stress on our dear Presido. I pray Yardie recovers from this present episode, but he has to change the management of his life and what he consumes, without that he is in trouble....

Question: can anyone afflicted with this kind of ailment embark on a rigorous task as the President of Nigeria? What took them so long to disclose the President's ailment to Nigerians and to the world at large? Has the President contravened the Constitution by the nature of his ailment? How much is the President's medical bill per quarter? Aondoakaa should shut his dirty mouth and stop misleading Nigerians about the President's health. By the way where is Madam Dora Akunyili in the scheme of things?

Our dear Presido has inflammation of his blood vessels lining. That means, EVERY and ANY organ in his body may be affected. The situation is worsened by the fact that Yardie has to be kept on anti inflammatory steroids, which has serious side effects. He has undergone at least two kidney transplants, but the transplanted organs suffer from the same fate. He has to undergo dialysis weekly, that can be seen from the damage on the back of his hands were his houseman's vein has been repeatedly punctured. Should he resign? ABSOLUTELY NOT!! Yardie has to change his management and life styles. Control the Katsina Mafia around him to enable him delegate more to his deputy. Without that, he is trouble...

who want the president dead? Imagige if he was your father. I siincerely pray for his quick recovery. May the almighty God keep him for us. His family need Him, and the nation in general. Nigeria is a very complex country to govern. Considering his failing health, he has tried for the nation. God bless Nigeria.

Transplant? How do you he has not had one already? It is very significant that for the first time, a specific disease has been named. Those who know about these things can join the dots and discern what is TRULY going on. The bottom line: The Ship of State has a very sick Captain...and the seas are very rough indeed. I pray sincerely that we are not aboard The Titanic right now and that our country will weather this storm too. As for our Captain, no person that desires good for his neighbour can really wish him ill, particularly now. All that we can do is pray that Thy Will be done, O Lord!

i wish him a speedy recovery.

this is a case of poor risk management on the part of the pdp,and the gods that made this man "Presiident".the more the information management goes wrong , the more we will pay economically.so mind what kind of signals ou are sending to the entire world, and don,t further compromise the intergrity of our country with this half done messages. the world is watching.

I do not think Mr.President need to travel abroad when we have Prophet T.B Joshua in Lagos. Pls take him there now now just a touch from the man of God he will be well again. He will not die, we love our president.

Posted by Fidelstine on Nov 26 2009 Infact, this Saudi Doctors should embark on kidney transplant to save our President. this man has sufferred enough... This news of our presidents' illness today president flown to Germany and Saudi is a big slap on Nigeria. Why can't our Presi and his cohots equip @least one hospital here in Nija... that will help keep this illness a little bit secret... abeggggggggggg *********************************************************** THIS IS EXACTLY what I have been talking about, for which some here have attacked me. It is about NATIONAL DIGNITY and SELF RESPECT. Now that the whole world knows that Nigeria's president does not trust his own country to perform simple diagnostic procedures and take care of his health needs, where do we go from here? Umaru is just like any other man, and I wish him the best of Godspeed, but this practice of shunning his own country when it comes to health care is a SLAP in the FACE of his country. What are the lessons learnt from this, and how does Nigeria plan to capitalise on this for IMPROVEMENT? An UNHEALTHY NATION is a DIEING Nation.

CRAP. Is this site down, or is it just another case of Nigerian way of doing NOTHING right?

When objective posts are sent people call it wicked. Nigerians are abunch of emotional victims. While nobody wish people ill health, it is only wise for him to resign when his health can no longer allow him to lead the nation properly. Not resigning leaves the country unmanned by a sound healthy leadership. I think depriving Nigeria of an appropriate leadership is more WICKED.

PRESIDO PLEASE RECOVER SOON IN JESUS NAME.

He should do the right thing by the state by resigning, that is putting the affairs of the state first, it already hard for in 9ja talk of a 9ja and a sick president. The state should be supreme and given priority. Let’s stop being sentimental about issues, he is not fit to rule us. None of his 7 point agenda has worked and this is the end of the second year.

God will be your strenght and Buckler. You shall not die Mr president

@ Kole: thank you Kole for your comments, they could be so witty were they not drenched with cynicism or even sarkasm that just shoots right to the center of trouble and, yes, truth. Let this be the last phase of all these terrible things happening around us.

It is nice that at last Nigerians are having an inkling into the ailment that has sapped the energy of their president. Adeniyi should have given us the clue before now. Afterall since we know that all our hospitals laid prostrate and our doctors poorly remunirated and motivated, the 'Bokas' in the North or the Southern 'Babalawos' may have been able to help out. Afterall if you don't cover your ailment you may well be on the way to receiving solution, often such solutions come from an unanticipated source like the traditional healers whom have become a source of succour to millions of Nigerians as they can not be helped by the poorly equipped hospitals under Yar'Adua's control. Anyhow I wish you quick recovery. In the meantime Nigeria needs to move ahead with a leader whose ill-health won't be a constant source of distraction to good governance. Yar'Adua needs to resign.

While wishing President Yar'Adua quick recovery. Methink he should have given us an inkling into the nature of his ailment earlier than this. Secrecy in the state of health of the president of a nation will only breed rumour mongering. Yar'Adua needs to know that he is not a private person. Anything that affects him should be a matter for national discourse. However I think the lesson here is that whoever is in power should endeavour to put things right. Yar'adua's hospitals in Nigeria are poorly equipped, the doctors poorly remmunirated. No wonder the constant flight to Saudi Arabia for help. Forgeting that the latter is a country that has a large proportion of her doctors being Nigerians who have fled the long years of misrule of our successive governments. I strongly believe it is unpatriotic for members of any government in power to seek health outside the shores of their nation. Let us fix our hospitals, our schools and other social infrastructure. However I wish Yar'adua a very speedy recovery.

I WOULD PERSONALLY LIKE OUR PRESIDEND TO HAVE A COMPETENT DOCTOR AROUND HIM AND I WOULD ADVISE THE PRESIDENT TO COME TO FRANCE AS FRANCE IS CAPABLE OF DIAGNOSE ALL RELATED DIESEASE AS I AM NOT PLEASE WITH THE SKIN RELATED EFFECT OF THE DRUGS HE CURENTLY ADMINISTERED ...CAN ANY LOVE ONE AROUND HIM PASS THIS REQUEST .I WANT THE PRESIDENT SOONEST RECOVERY EVEN NOW LETS MAKE SENSE GOOD AND HONEST FELLOWS OF NIGERIA !

I wish rapid recovery umaru

We need to pray for fast recovery of our president. He is our leader, i wonder why some people are praying for him to die. Please let us all pray for his recovery and peace in the nation. Pastor Temitope Balogun Joshua, of the Synagogue, Church of All Nations, during last Sunday service called on members to pray for Yar Adua vigorously. He charged them to pray for the body and soul of the president this Thursday and fast for him on Friday. All Nigerians please we have to join in the prayer and fasting to the recovery of our President.

Is there no Balm in Gilead (Nigeria), Let Yaradua also seek prayer from Nigeria men of God- the Kumuyi; Adeboye; oyedepo; Baba Sabela and Kupoluyi etc. He will be healed. Let us all pray for him. God is more than able.

Everything about Nigeria is shrouded in mistery. We are just too emotional to face the facts. If one of his ministers were this sick, what would he do? wouldnt he advice him/her to resign on health grounds . why is the president's case different?

The president is really looking terrible,Na by force to be president? TAKE A BREAK SIR! your health should be of more importance to you than any post(even presidency). We are in prayers!

Mr President, I love you. Please get well and come back to your office. You have great things for the Niger Delta People since you became president. May the miracle giving God heal you faster than man's expectation from this moment. You are well in Jesus name, Amen.
