Osun: Governor Adeleke breaks silence on medical trip to Thailand

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke has cleared the air on his recent trip to Bangkok, Thailand, saying he went on vacation and used the opportunity to embark on a periodic medical checkup.

The cheerful Governor told journalists upon his return to Nigeria on Wednesday that he was fit and fine to continue his constitutional duties as the executive functions as governor.

“I went to Bangkok in Thailand for my vacation and I seized the opportunity to check my medicals and as you can see, I am fully fit”, he said.

A statement issued earlier by his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed denounced claims that the governor has succumbed to health issues, hence the need to fly out of the country for treatment.

“I’m elated to be back in Nigeria in the midst of my people. You all can see I’m in an excited mood as I’m now recharged and refreshed to deliver more good governance and service delivery to the people of Osun.

“The insinuation of whether I’m sick or otherwise is unfounded. I am as fit as fiddle. I went on a working vacation to both recharge and meet partners for the development and progress of our state.

“Those spreading falsehood about my trip are just embarrassed and dumbfounded with our achievements. That’s why they’re spreading all those unfounded rumours.

“I’m back now, hale and hearty. The good work continues in Osun”, the statement reads.
