The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and former governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has addressed circulating news about his health.
The clarification comes after reports surfaced revealing that Wike was flown to London last week for medical treatment.
These reports alleged that he was rushed abroad for a medical emergency.
During a media chat on Sunday, Wike confirmed that he is in good health and fully capable of handling his official responsibilities.
Wike refuted these claims, explaining that his ability to perform his duties reflects his good health.
“God has given me good health, that is why I have the energy to do what I am doing…” he submitted.
His media aide, Lere Olayinka, also denied the rumours, questioning their credibility.
Olayinka wondered how Wike was reportedly flown to London on Thursday but was seen visiting various communities in Abuja the following day.
The aide criticized those spreading the rumours, pointing out that the minister is consistently visible, actively engaging in public duties, and attending events, including road project inaugurations.
Speaking via the X platform, Olayinka said, “They are saying that the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike was rushed to London for medical attention on Thursday night. They are even quoting time and Aircraft Number.
“Issorite! Sebi Wike was flown to London on Thursday night for urgent medical treatment and he used Witchcraft to come back on Friday to visit Dape Community in Life Camp area, Gishiri and Pigba Sama communities in Abuja on Friday.
“The Minister will also use Witchcraft to come back to Abuja on Monday to start commissioning road projects.
“People who have not done any medical check-up in the last ten years, jumping up and down on the health of a Minister that is seen everyday, doing his job. Make una KONTINU.”
A lot of speculators have also submitted that the rumours may be coming from Wike’s camp secretly to keep him relevant, afloat and talked about on the media, since his battle with the Rivers State governor, Sim Fubara isn’t giving out so much media attention any more.
