OKOO.........Alex Ekwueme to be flown abroad for immediate treatment on President Buhari’s order

Hmmm......Former Nigeria’s Vice-President, Alex Ekwueme, who reportedly collapsed in his Enugu residence on Sunday will be flown abroad for immediate treatment on President Buhari’s order.

The statement released on behalf of President Buhari by the President’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, reads;

“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.”

The Elder Statesman’s family who released a statement on Monday, said Dr. Alex Ekwueme who turned 85 in October is now stable and responding to treatment.
