‘He needs sleep’ – NDC clears air on Peter Obi‘s health

The Deputy Campaign Spokesperson of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Dr. Sam Omale, has dismissed concerns over the health of the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, saying he is in perfect health but only suffering from exhaustion.

Omale stated this during an interview on MEDIA TODAY, where he explained that Obi’s demanding schedule and constant movement between locations had left him physically exhausted.

According to him, Obi is passionate about his political activities and often handles several tasks simultaneously, leaving little time for rest.

“Sometimes I wonder where he gets his energy from. He is in London today and the following morning in Enugu. I’m wondering how he does it. Exhaustion comes in; he is a human being,” he said.

Omale, however, insisted that there was nothing medically wrong with Obi, adding that members of his team were trying to persuade him to get some sleep and rest.

“He is in perfect health. There’s nothing wrong with him. It’s just exhaustion, and we are trying to calm him down to take a sleep. He is fine,” he added.
