This was revealed by a close family source.

According to Vanguard Newspapers, a source close to fmr. President Goodluck Jonathan, revealed that Obua was also diabetic and hypertensive.

In his words: “You know that Obua is diabetic and hypertensive. So he suffered from the trauma arising from three days of hunger strike which he embarked upon against his solitary confinement in cubicles underground.”

You will recall that Governor Ayo Fayose said that Obua was not allowed his medications while in detention.
