Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, has revealed why he
uses crutches.
He spoke through an All Progressives Congress (APC)
chieftain, Chukwuemeka Eze.
The former Rivers Governor was seen with a walking aid
during the commissioning of an orphanage home and Arabic School in Kaita Local
Government Area of Katsina State last Friday.
In a statement on Monday, Eze revealed the circumstances
surrounding the development.
He said Nigerians had been wondering whether Amaechi was
suffering from an ankle sprain, knee arthritis, plantar fasciitis, hemiplegia
scissors gait or motor neuron lesion.
Eze disclosed that he reached out to the former governor to
get the true state of the situation.
The associate said the Minister told him had a hairline
fracture but assured he is getting better.
He quoted Amaechi as saying: “I had a hairline fracture on
31st December 2020 but I have been working with it all these weeks before the
public pictures showing me with crutches. Nobody should express any fear as my
Doctors are on top of it”.
Eze noted that walking with crutches demonstrates “the
patriotic zeal and commitment of the Minister in contributing towards rebuilding
Nigeria to suit the fancy of the founding fathers of our nation”.
