Face your health problems, PDP tells Aregbesola

THE South-West zone of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has admonished the Osun State governor, Mr Rauf Aregbesola, to face governance and his obvious health problems, instead of playing politics with the progress of his state.The PDP said the call became necessary, following the governor's admission in newspaper interviews last year that he was in India to do PET scan, adding that 'if there is any threat to Aregbesola's life, it must be from the health problems that took him to India last year.'The zonal publicity secretary of the party, Honour-able Kayode Babade, in a statement issued on Thursday, said by Aregbesola's confession in an interview published in the Leadership newspaper of September 11, 2011 that he was in India to do Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan, no one should be in doubt as to the health challenges the governor faced.According to the statement, it was on record that Aregbesola said 'My local medical doctor had insisted that I need medical check-up and I should do PET scan or clinical image and the only place in the world that is good is India.'The statement added that 'in medicine, PET is a medical imaging technology that allows physicians to visualise the body's abnormal cellular activity. PET scans produce digital pictures that can, in many cases, aid the physician in identifying several forms of cancer, damaged heart tissue and brain disorders.'The reality is that, if Aregbesola was asked by his own personal doctor to examine his body system, especially his brain, no one should be in doubt that something is wrong with him.'Even his behaviour since he came back needs further analysis, especially his utterances and, most importantly, the burning of his bedroom in the Government House, with him locking the door and travelling to Lagos as the place was on fire.'The statement asked the ACN to stop making noise about anyone planning to kill Aregbesola, adding that rather, the party should show love to the governor by advising him to pay more attention to his health.On the alleged 'intelligence report' referred to by the ACN, the PDP said 'our position is clear, we only called on security agencies in the country to investigate what we viewed as threat to the corporate existence of Nigeria and we are not the one to teach the security people their job.
