A number of tests are being performed on Head of the Presidential Secretariat, Dr. Roger Luncheon, by medical practitioners at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) to determine the nature of his illness, according to Presidential Advisor, Gail Teixeira.
Teixeira made this announcement during one of the weekly media briefings at the Office of the President, Shiv Chanderpaul Drive, Georgetown. She said that Dr. Luncheon was hospitalized early yesterday.
“He is in a stable condition and he is undergoing further tests. He is also conscious…We hope that he will be able to rest and to have all the medical attention required to get to the bottom of some of the medical problems he has been encountering over the last few weeks,” Teixeira added.
Kaieteur News understands that the Cabinet Secretary was rushed to the hospital around 05:30 am yesterday after experiencing difficulty in breathing. He is admitted at the hospital’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
