The political economist was crucial to Peter Obi’s Labour Party candidature for president, opening the door for a hitherto unheard-of third power in Nigerian politics.
Prof. Pat Utomi, a prominent member of the Labour Party, revealed on Friday that he is battling prostate cancer, for which he was given a diagnosis last year. He said that this is the cause of his seeming silence.
The Social Democratic Mega Party (SDMP) presidential candidate for 2011 stated in a string of tweets that “Prostate cancer is bringing death and misery to many men.”
This new day of light has led me to tackle a hidden disease that is causing significant harm to males. Many guys are suffering and dying as a result of prostate cancer. As with women who have breast CA, if they had been told, the suffering may have been contained and even the possibilities of a cure greatly increased.
According to him, if patients had been notified, “misery containment” and the likelihood of a cure may have been much improved, much like breast cancer preventative programmes for women.
“Last year, after a biopsy revealed that I was positive, I started receiving treatment at a cancer centre with locations in Ikeja and VI,” Utomi stated.
“I occasionally travelled to the Ikeja Centre near the airport after running for office. The medical staff would attempt to sneak me out the back.

The political economist continued, “Joined forces with the Lakeshore people and decided they wanted me in their direct care.” His young nephews and cousins, who are physicians in Europe and the US, “decided they wanted me in their direct care” after the elections.
They regulated my phones to lower stress, so that’s why it appeared I went quiet, he continued.
After the elections, my young nephews and cousins decided they wanted me under the direct supervision of doctors from Europe and the US who had teamed up with the Lakeshore residents. like explains why it appeared like I stopped talking since they controlled my phones to lessen the tension.
Utomi was instrumental in helping Labour Party nominee Peter Obi win the presidency in 2023, opening the door for a previously unheard-of third power in Nigerian politics.
Despite the fact that Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been recognised as the winner of the election by INEC, Obi and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are contesting the results in court.
