Kyari
has not been sighted lately at the Presidential Villa.
Multiple Presidency sources who spoke
with our correspondent on Friday evening said Kyari had been flown abroad for
treatment.
Although
none of them could confirm the nature of his sickness or the hospital where he
is receiving medical attention, the government officials said Kyari had been
battling the ailment for sometime.
They
said the illness was responsible for his long absence in the Presidenti al
Villa recently, which some media reports attributed to suspension by the
President.
Our
correspondent, however, learnt that Kyari was responding to treatment abroad.
Presidential
spokesmen, Femi Adesina and Garba Shehu, could not be reached on the telephone
for comments as of the time of filing this report on Friday.
They
were attending a dinner organized in honor of the visiting King Mohammed VI of
Morocco at the time.
