“ In the name of God, the healer, From the community of doctors
To the President of the Republic of Nigeria , Mr. Buhari.
In the past several months , the world has constantly received troubling news regarding the health of one of the prominent figures in Nigeria , Shaikh Ibrahim Zakzaky .
Both Shaikh Ibrahim Zakzaky and his wife are kept in prison and the health status of both of them is very alarming .
We have chosen to be doctors even after knowing that this job is very difficult and troublesome, but we chose to save people ’ s lives and preferred the health of the society over our personal interests.
According to the medical reports regarding the health status of Shaikh Ibrahim Zakzaky :
1 . He is suffering from a total blindness in the left eye , and is also suffering from vision problems in the right , eye including glaucoma and progressive macular atrophy. According to the diagnosis of the visiting physicians , Shaikh Zakzaky will lose his vision sooner or later if the current circumstances do not change .
2 . He has shown symptoms of Ischemic heart disease which can lead to Myocardial Infraction .
3 . He is also suffering from severe cervical spondylosis which has resulted to nerve root compression and symptoms are progressive causing insomnia .
4 . The experiments show that he has heavy metal toxicity including Lead and Cadmium .
Laboratory tests that are performed on May 31 st , 2019 show that blood lead level is 171 .94 µg / dl . Later on June 18 th, 2019 this level was reported to be 231. 48 µg while in the last laboratory test the blood lead level was three times more than the toxicity level ( grade 5 of poisoning ) .
“ Based on the points highlighted above , Shaikh Ibrahim Zakzaky should be transferred to a well – equipped medical center that has Neuro -ophthalmologist , glaucoma specialist and low vision expert , cardiologist , orthopedist and neurologist . Also he may need to have a surgery to reduce intraocular pressure .
“ We , doctors of different nationalities cannot take the health of any human for granted . This is something that is inherent in our obligation as doctors . Ignoring the critical health status of Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky can end up in irreparable consequences .
“ We request the government and parliament of Nigeria to immediately transfer him to a well -equipped hospital to prevent any unfortunate incidents .”
