 Nigerians have applauded Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo’s openness about his health status and his choice of medicare in a local hospital.

Laolu Akande, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Office of the Vice President, had on Saturday evening tweeted that Osinbajo was in the hospital for a surgical procedure.

He said that the surgery was on account of a recurrent pain in the leg possibly sustained from an injury while playing squash.

Medics in the Duchess International Hospital, Ikeja, Lagos, afterwards confirmed that the procedure was successful.

Reacting to the news, some Nigerians went on social media to commend the Osibanjo’s choice of a local hospital for a medical procedure and wished him quick recovery.

Ken Osemebor on twitter reacted thus: “I was scared you wanted to refer to that helicopter crash…. I hope it’s something minor.

“This is a new one, updating the citizens about the well-being of the vice president, one day we will do better; extend our best wishes to the vice president.”

Kemisola Adekunle, in her tweet, said “I am sure it is not too serious.

“But kudos to the vice president for trusting in his doctors here at home and not having to fly abroad for treatment.

“It shows his belief in Nigeria medical doctors.”

Another Nigerian simply known as Chika on twitter said “speedy recovery sir.

“Noteworthy that he’s using a local hospital and local doctors. Talk and do.”

Also, Tamuno Tonye wished “quick recovery to the senior advocate of the masses who believes in everything in Nigeria, owned by Nigerians and for Nigerians.”

He added, “our medical services have proven to be world class for all citizens irrespective of their societal class.”

Right activists, Aisha Yesufu and Henry Sheild were also not left out as they prayed and wished the vice president speedy recovery.

Shield wrote: “may the Lord Almighty heal you and hold the hands of the medical staff all through the procedure.

“You will come out stronger and healthier in Jesus name. You are in our prayers.”

On her part, Yesufu prayed “may God heal you completely.”

Recall that issue of medicare and education are two key issues Nigerians have taken the President Muhammadu Buhari administration to the cleaners, saying the administration has no regards for the ordinary citizens in this regard which is why it pays little or no attention in that regard.
