It has been revealed that the Former Executive Secretary to the President and Ambassador-At-Large, Nana Asante Bediatuo is recovering faster from the stroke he suffered last year.
It will be recalled that there was a rumour alleging that Nana Asante Bediatuo underwent a 10-hour brain surgery in the US, Bediatuo was part of a delegation that accompanied President Akufo-Addo at the United Nations General Assembly in New York where he felt ill.
The last we heard from the presidency about Nana Asante Bediatuo’s ill health was some months ago through a press statement released from the Office of the President, the scanty information stated Nana Bediatuo was unwell and being treated in the U.S.
Broadcast Journalist Kwaku Annan last year claimed Asante Bediatuo’s condition is getting worse by the day and has been moved to a different location and will not return to help President Akufo-Addo to do a smooth transition to handover because he is executive secretary to the president.
However, the latest news emerging from the United States where he is receiving treatment indicates he is recovering faster.
The statement confirming his recovery stated, “He is currently in stable condition and responding well to treatment. According to the medical team, Nana Bediatuo Asante’s recovery is on track, and we remain hopeful for his swift return to full strength. We ask for continued prayers and support for him and his family during this difficult period. Further updates will be provided when necessary”.
The information also revealed Nana Asante Bediatuo is undergoing post-recovery therapy and also learning how to grip and walk with the help of therapists.
Meanwhile, there were calls by some Ghanaians to bring back Nana Asante Bediatuo to Ghana for his treatment.
