President Michael Sata is reported to have been treated in New York, United States where he traveled to attend the United Nations General Assembly.
Quoting Police, Associated Press (AP) reports that the Zambian President was treated in his New York hotel room by doctors but has not been hospitalized. Mr. Sata did not deliver a scheduled address to the 193-member world body on Wednesday.
President Sata was treated on Thursday.
In June, President Sata went to Isreal for treatment but government refused saying he was on working holiday. Upon sneaking back into the country he was not seen in public for close to three months.
Just this month he emerged addressing two campaign rallies for his Parliamentary candidates outside Lusaka. He spoke for a short time and pictures shown on television by the government owned media depict him to be frail.
The latest appearance was on September 19, 2014 when he officially opened Parliament. He spoke for half an hour without finishing reading his speech which was later circulated to the Media. The private media were barred from covering the event.
