PETROLEUM MINISTER, MADUEKE, HOSPITALISED?

There is a speculation that the Petroleum Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke, has been hospitalised. 

According to saharareporters, "Mrs. Madueke’s condition did not require immediate hospitalization, but described it as “potentially serious.” The source, who is a medical doctor, was only willing to divulge that the minister’s diagnosis is for a condition related to abnormal cell development in her body. The doctor declined to disclose if the diagnosis was a form of cancer, but said Mrs. Alison-Madueke’s condition “assumed a dire dimension recently.”
The medical source and another source close to the minister’s family told SaharaReporters that, prior to her recent hospitalization, Mrs. Alison-Madueke had made monthly medical trips to the UK. One source disclosed that she sometimes used private jets arranged by Kola Aluko, a business tycoon with whom she has business ties." (saharareporters)

Workers ran out of their offices on discovery of a strange object which looked like a bomb placed at the gate. After removing the strange object, police assured the panic-stricken workers who gathered far away from the scene to return as the complex had been certified  free from risk of bombing, some of them were reluctant to go in while others sneaked back to their homes.
They took the suspected object to the Government House, where the AIG was paying a courtesy visit to the governor.
The object which looked like a bomb with a wrist watch attached to it had wiring connections round it and looked like an explosive device.
The state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Ikechukwu Aduba, who addressed reporters said it was just a prank to draw unnecessary attention and  perhaps the handiwork of enemies who are trying to bring down the government.
