Nasarawa State Governor , Abdullahi Sule , has refuted claims in some quarters that he was presently on medical trip to the United States of America , emphasising that he travelled to the US to see his children while on his annual vacation.
The governor made the clarification while appearing as a guest on Channels Television , monitored by our correspondent in Lafia .
Sule, who was said to have visibly abandoned hospitals in his state for medical tourism in the US , stated that he normally went on annual leave in December and took the advantage to spend time with his family in Houston , Texas .
The governor added that while on vacation in the US , where he had stayed for quite some time , he equally used the advantage to carry out routine medical checkups .
“ My trip here has nothing to do with my health . I ’ m here on my annual vacation. Usually , I carry out my medical checkups even while I was the MD of the Dangote Group .
“ There is nothing wrong with my health. I have just finished my routine medical checkups , dental check , eye check and everything went perfectly , ” he stressed .
