Fresh information has emerged regarding the health condition of the Minister of Finance, Wale Edun, following his recent illness.

President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga said:

“Yes, he’s indisposed. Wale Edun is about 69 years old. He suddenly fell ill. As we are talking, he is in Nigeria. He is recuperating. He’s around.”

Also, a source within the presidency said:

“He is indisposed. He’s sick, which is a bit serious, but it’s not stroke.”

“As I’m talking to you, he’s in his house. He has not been flown anywhere.”

“Of course, he might seek medical attention elsewhere if the doctors say that is necessary. So, it’s not true that he has a stroke.”

“He doesn’t have a stroke, which is why we put it in the statement that he is indisposed.”

Another source said: “He’s being attended to by Nigerian doctors.”

“They’re still monitoring him. If he needs medical care outside Nigeria, he will go. But he’s still at home. There are no plans to replace him.“
