“He was brought while feeling dizzy and we have administered the necessary medication. We are still keeping him to monitor any complications which may arise. For now, he is stable and in good hands,” Dr Oula said.

MEDICAL CHECK UP

Prof Nyong’o’s communication secretary Aloice Ager when contacted said: “The governor just excused himself to go for medical check up. No cause for alarm.”
