Vice President Yemi Osinbajo was, on Saturday, admitted to a hospital to undergo surgery to resolve a recurrent pain in his leg.
The operation has been declared successful.
Osinbajo was said to have been carrying the pain for a while believed to have first started following one of his sporting engagements.
His spokesman, Laolu Akande, confirmed in a tweet on Saturday that the Vice President had gone into a hospital for the procedure.
The tweet on his verified handle, @akandeoj, did not give details but said doctors would give the Vice President update on the condition.
Akande tweeted: “VP Osinbajo 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.”
Stonix News reports that later in a statement after the operation, Akande announced that it had gone well.
