The Deputy Campaign Spokesperson of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Dr. Sam Omale, has dismissed concerns over the health of the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, saying he is in perfect health but only suffering from exhaustion
Omale stated this during an interview on Channels Television, where he explained that Obi’s demanding schedule and constant movement between locations had left him physically exhausted
According to him, Obi is passionate about his political activities and often handles several tasks simultaneously, leaving little time for rest
“Sometimes I wonder where he gets his energy from. He is in London today and the following morning in Enugu. I’m wondering how he does it. Exhaustion comes in; he is a human being,” he said

Omale, however, insisted that there was nothing medically wrong with Obi, adding that members of his team were trying to persuade him to get some sleep and rest
“He is in perfect health. There’s nothing wrong with him. It’s just exhaustion, and we are trying to calm him down to take a sleep. He is fine,” he added
He further maintained that Obi’s exhaustion would not affect the party’s ongoing campaigns
