Vice President of Nigeria Yemi Osinbajo underwent surgery in a hospital.
At the Duchess International Hospital in Ikeja, Lagos State, the Vice President had successful surgery on his leg on Saturday.
Laolu Akande, his senior special assistant for media and publicity, verified this in a tweet on Saturday under the handle @akandeoj.
He said that the vice president may have injured his leg while playing squash and that the vice president’s ongoing leg pain made surgery necessary.
The Medical Director of the hospital, Dr Adedoyin Dosunmu-Ogunbi, while giving an update on the procedure, said it was successful and the vice president is “alert and well.”
“He had a surgical operation performed by a team of specialist doctors, including Dr Wallace Ogufere (Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon); Dr Om Lahoti (Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon); Dr Babajide Lawson (Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon); Dr Ken Adegoke (Consultant in Anaesthesia & Critical Care); Dr Oladimeji Agbabiaka (Consultant Anaesthetist); and Dr Adedoyin Dosunmu-Ogunbi (Consultant Physician & Medical Director).
“The operation was successful, and he is expected to be discharged within the next few days”, he said.
