IS PRESIDENT JONATHAN HOSPITALIZED IN GERMANY?

Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, has vehimently denied that President Goodluck Jonathan is sick and hospitalized. He  had last Thursday issued a three-paragraph statement, indicating that Jonathan, with a few aides, was travelling to Germany on a private visit and should be expected back this week.
He said
“On Saturday, I sent out a statement that the President spoke with the Falconets on the telephone. I also sent out the video and audio of his conversation with the players where he promised to stay awake and watch the final match.

“The NTA and some other broadcasting stations aired the video and audio.

“There are also photographs out there showing the President when he was leaving Nigeria and when he was arriving Germany.

“The President is hale and hearty. In fact, he is treating files in his hotel room.

“Are these not enough proofs that Mr. President is not sick as they want Nigerians to believe?

“It is important to note that the publisher of the newspaper that has been writing this false report is a chieftain of an opposition party who also have an ambition to be President.”

President Johnathan is expected back in the country today.
Jonathan had in December last year embarked on a similar private visit to Germany though many also said then that the President had gone in search for treatment for ill health.
