The wife of the President, Aisha Buhari, has commended the team of doctors and nurses treating her son, Yusuf, at the Cedarcrest Hospital, Abuja. She did not only proudly pose for a photo graph with the crack medical team but also mentioned their names in a thank-you message she penned to celebrate them.
