Pres. Buhari on Friday ordered that ailing former Vice
President Alex Ekwueme be flown abroad for medical treatment.
According to a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on
Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, the President gave the order after he received
a brief on the medical condition of the former Vice President.
The statement read, “President Muhammadu Bubari has approved
the immediate medical treatment of former Vice-President, Dr Alex Ekwueme,
outside the country.
The approval followed a brief the President received Friday
on the medical condition of the former Vice-President.
The approval covers the immediate charter of an Air
Ambulance for the emergency movement and the cost of treatment. President
Buhari prays that God will grant the elder statesman speedy recovery.”
I wish the 85 year old statesman soonest recovery...
