The Vice President is set undergo a surgery.
He has, in a rare style, announced this officially.
Nigerian leaders are known to conceal details of their health whenever they are sick.
But the VP, who has ben relatively quiet since the time he lost the presidential primary to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, said he o=would be undergoing the surgery on his leg.
According to his spokesman Laolu Akande, the surgery became necessary because of recurrent pain in the leg from an injury possibly while playing squash.
‘’VP Osinabjo is in the hospital today for a surgical procedure on account of a recurrent pain in the leg possibly sustained from an injury while playing squash. His doctors would give an update of the treatment later today.’’
