Dear Mr. Theo, While I will not blow a storm over a man approaching 70 falling ill or managing certain underlying health conditions, for such comes with age, and at almost 70, Peter is certainly no longer a young man. That said, there are certain associated issues here that should provoke immediate concern. 1. For a man who has consistently mounted the pulpit of criticism against Nigerian leaders who seek medical attention abroad, it is rather curious that he too has chosen to travel the same route he has spent years condemning. Does the principle suddenly become less applicable when the patient is Peter Obi? 2. One also wonders whether, after governing Anambra State for eight years, there is not a single hospital adequately equipped to attend to the failing health of a former governor. Or perhaps Peter is apprehensive that one of those doctors he allegedly left to endure 13 months without salaries might just be coincidentally positioned to attend to him. There is a certain irony in fleeing from the very consequences of one's own governance. 3. The NDC is yet to commence any major campaign activities, yet Peter Obi is reportedly already collapsing from exhaustion? For a man aspiring to shoulder the enormous burden, stress and pressures of governing a heavily laden country like Nigeria, I fear exhaustion has arrived rather too early in the day. If the journey to the palace is already proving this exhausting, what happens when the real burden of leadership begins? This raises a graver question. What really ails Peter? And should he not step aside from the Presidential race and tend to his health with honour? Is the hunger for power so great that it outweighs the will to live? We wish Peter a speedy recovery and an earnest return home. However, when he does return, he may also wish to retire the familiar script of presenting himself as healthier, stronger and more physically capable than other political leaders. The one who boasts of strong legs should not be carried home on another man's back. Clearly, He is not healthier than anyone else. Good Evening Severally...
