Former Bauchi State Governor, Isa Yuguda, has broken his silence over a social media report announcing his death, revealing that he recently underwent back surgery.
Yuguda, who spoke on Saturday, said the report caused panic among his supporters, particularly in Bauchi, as several people rushed to contact him and his associates to confirm his condition.
He, however, described the report as false, assuring Nigerians that he remained alive and was recovering from the surgery.
“I am alive. I assure you that I am in good health. I was ill recently, but God has restored my health,” the former governor said.
Yuguda explained that he had been keeping mostly indoors after the operation in compliance with medical advice, adding that he had been advised to rest during his recovery.
He said the condition affected his back and required surgery, noting that complications involving the vertebrae could become serious, particularly as people grow older.
