Alison-Madueke is Critically Ill - Family



Nigeria's former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Dieziani Alison-Madueke is currently ill and receiving treatment at a UK hospital.
A family source who spoke to LEADERSHIP said, ''Our daughter has been in hospital where is receiving treatment for some weeks now. She is currently under close medical observation. We learnt that the observation means that she has been unable to see anyone outside close family members over the last few weeks.

''They have also discouraged her use of phones to avoid any risk of infection which will be extremely harmful for her. Diezani is responding well, but doctors are concerned about her movement and interaction given the intense treatment being administered.
''It is such an emotional time for us all as she is quite fragile and we are careful to keep her away from all the gossip and falsehoods being attributed to her in the media. We expect the media to respect the family’s feelings at this trying time''.
