Former military administration Governor of Anambra and Imo state's wife and once petroleum Minister in the Jonathan administration as well as Transportation and Steel Minister in the Yar'Adua administration Diezani Alison-Madueke's family confirms that she indeed has cancer. Madueke who is also OPEC President is under fire in an British investigation regarding misappropriation of oil funds in the Jonathan government. Prayers for her in healing her cancer.
The family lawyer Oscar Onwudiwe released this statement
“The Madueke family, like most other families, has its own challenges. For instance, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke has been receiving treatment for cancer in the UK which started while she was in office. The health crisis has unfortunately exacerbated in recent times. She completed months of chemotherapy just last week and she is scheduled to undergo surgery next week in London.
The family has been bearing this challenge with prayers and as much grace and fortitude as possible; and would plead with all reasonable Nigerians to pray for her recovery so that she can face this allegation and give account of her stewardship. Yes, she can—and very well, too,” he added.
Horrible disease that is. I will keep you informed of any new developments in her health status as she now battles for her life and reputation at the same time--KOO
