Aisha Buhari’s PTSD Diagnosis of Buhari
By Farooq Kperogi
Aisha Buhari said she "suffered the consequences" of Buhari's Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), which she said was triggered by the Civil War, his 1985 overthrow, and his serial electoral losses until 2015.
She claimed that she "became a physiotherapist" to nurse him to sanity. Well, we know her highest legitimate academic qualification is a diploma in beauty therapy and cosmetology.
But even if she truly became a physiotherapist (which Americans call a physical therapist), the fact is, physiotherapists don't treat mental and emotional illnesses. They only treat physical injuries through physical activity, massage, etc.
The specialists who treat mental and emotional illnesses are called psychotherapists.
No wonder that Buhari’s PTSD hasn’t been cured. He was treated by a beautician who thought the periodic massages she gave her husband cured him of his PTSD.
The result? Buhari has given Nigerians Present-Traumatic Stress Disorder (still PTSD) in his unprecedently disastrous 7-plus-year presidency.
