Madonna Breaks Silence After Hospitalisation, Says ‘I’m On Road To Recovery’

American super popstar, Madonna, 64, has said that she’s on her way to recovery after she was rushed to hospital and intubated at the Intensive Care Unit for unresponsiveness in New York.

She disclosed this in a post on her Instagram page on Monday.

Her manager, Guy Oseary, confirmed that she was suffering from a ‘serious bacterial infection’ that required a long stay in the ICU.

Madonna had been forced to postpone her hotly-anticipated 40th-anniversary tour as a result of her medical struggles.

With a grateful heart to her fans, she wrote, “Thank you for your positive energy. Prayers and words of healing and encouragement. I have felt your love.

“I’m on the road to recovery and incredibly grateful for all the blessings.

“My first thought when I woke up in the hospital was my children.

“My second thought was that I did not want to disappoint anyone who bought tickets for my tour.

“I also didn’t want to let down the people who worked tirelessly with me over the last few months to create my show. I hate to disappoint anyone.

“My focus now is my health and getting stronger and I assure you I’ll be back with you as soon as I can.

“My current plan is to reschedule the North American leg of the tour and to begin in October in Europe.

“I couldn’t be more grateful for your care and support.”

PDP witness chooses a cutlass for the oath at the Ogun tribunal

At the governorship election petition tribunal meeting in Abeokuta on Monday, a witness for the Peoples Democratic Party named Kehinde Soboyejo who was invited to testify against the win of the state governor, Dapo Abiodun, chose a cutlass as the subject of his oath.

Like the other three witnesses who testified before the tribunal last week, Soboyejo stated that he would prefer to take his oath in the customary manner in front of the panel using the god of iron.

Soboyejo asserted that Abiodun was elected with irregularities in the election.

Ladi Adebutu, the PDP’s candidate for governor in the state, is taking the All Progressives Congress and its candidate, Abiodun, to court over alleged irregularities in the election.

Last Thursday, the tribunal accepted the PDP’s uncontested documents, and then its lawyer informed the panel that the PDP was prepared to begin calling witnesses as scheduled.

Ibuowo Ogunbowale, Adeleye Ayomide, Adijat Ayodele, Faisal Yusuf, and Soboyejo were the five extra witnesses that the party called.

They all spoke out in opposition to Abiodun and the APC winning the state’s governorship on March 18, 2023.

Ogunbowale, a Sagamu resident, was however accused of interfering with the election after realizing that his party was trailing at his polling place.

He denied being involved in the crisis that shook his voting unit while being cross-examined by Mrs. Folake Akinlawon, one of the respondents’ attorneys.

In cross-examination by INEC and APC attorneys, respectively, Ayomide from Sagamu argued that there were anomalies at the election.

Soboyejo maintained there were anomalies in the election that put Abiodun in power while being cross-examined by an INEC attorney.

Contrary to what he said, his voter’s card with the marking BT 591 stated that he was a public worker, according to Ayodele and Yusuf from Ijoko, Ifo, who testified in favor of PDP.
