Who make we believe now? Se na Sahara reporters wey talk say our first lady get parkinson disease abi na dis report wey talk say na appendicitis? All the same, the truth go still comot outside. Enjoy what National Mirror is reporting.
The First Lady, Dame Patience
Jonathan, is due back in the country soon as doctors at the Wiesbaden Hospital
in Germany, where she is being treated for undisclosed illness, have certified
her fit to return to the country.
National Mirror reliably gathered that
Mrs. Jonathan successfully underwent surgery for appendicitis at the German
hospital. “The First Lady is in a stable state. The doctors at the hospitals
have confirmed her fitness but she needed more time to rest.
“I can tell you that she is now in good
state after a successful surgery,” the source closed to the Presidency
said.
The source could not, however, confirm
the exact date Dame Patience would arrive Nigeria. She has been away for 34
days. “It is very soon.
The date I can’t confirm,” the source
said.
Competent sources close to the
Presidency told National Mirror that she would have accompanied her husband to
the 67th United Nations General Assembly in New York but doctors advised her to
rest.
The sources said that the doctors
warned of dire consequences on her health if she embarked on any long
trip
It was also gathered that President
Goodluck Jonathan and his wife had planned to use the trip to New York to prove
critics wrong and end speculations about the health of the President’s
wife.
However, since it was not possible for
Dame Patience to attend the UN Assembly with her husband according to doctors’
advice, President Jonathan had made a stopover in Germany during his trip to New
York for the UN General Assembly to see his ailing wife who had been out of the
country for over one month.
At the 66th General Assembly of the
Session last year, Jonathan was accompanied on the trip by his wife, governors
and other top government officials.
The Presidency had kept mute over the
health condition of the First lady and had not issued any official statement
concerning the issue
However, her Special Assistant on
Media, Mr. Ayo Osinlu, said that the First Lady was on vacation and had taken
time to rest abroad after hosting the First Lady’s Conference in
Abuja.
He also said that he could not
ascertain when Dame Patience would come back from Germany as there was no fixed
date for her return to the country.
