in Germany following a severe bout of food poisoning that's lasted for
days, a government official said Tuesday.
A government official told The Associated Press that Patience Jonathan
fell sick about 10 days ago, following her hosting a summit of first
ladies from across Africa. As her case of food poisoning worsened, she
was flown to Germany for medical treatment, the official said.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity as information about
Jonathan's illness had yet to be officially made public, despite
numerous newspaper reports and rumors circulating on the Internet. Ayo
Osinlu, a spokesman for the first lady, did not respond to a request
for comment Tuesday.
President Goodluck Jonathan has made no public comments about his wife's health.
