The Vice President of Nigeria, Yemi Osinbajo, will physically attend the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting today, Wednesday. This marks the first time he will be present at the weekly meeting since undergoing successful knee surgery in Lagos State. Osinbajo had the procedure at the Duchess International Hospital in Ikeja on July 16, following an injury sustained while playing squash.
After several weeks of surgery and rehabilitation, the Vice President was discharged from the hospital. Since then, he has not attended the FEC meeting in person. Laolu Akande, the spokesman for the Vice President, confirmed his principal’s intention to attend the meeting and expressed his desire to become more active.
In a post on his Twitter account, Akande wrote, “VP Osinbajo is physically attending the weekly Federal Executive Council today. He is grateful for all the get-well wishes sent by Nigerians and others from all walks of life since the surgical operation and the recuperation period. He intends to be getting up and doing more and more.”
