Samoa Prime Minister, Tuila'epa Sa'ilele Malielegaoi, is due to return to Apia on Sunday after receiving medical treatment in New Zealand.
Tuila'epa was flown to New Zealand by air ambulance two weeks ago.
There's been little detail about the state of health of the long serving leader.
According to RNZI, people have been kept in the dark since Tuila'epa was admitted to intensive care at Samoa's national hospital in Apia at the beginning of this month.
The only statement from the government through the first secretary said there is nothing to worry about, the prime minister is doing well in New Zealand and he is sending his love and his best wishes to everyone in Samoa.
The acting prime minister, Papaliitele Niko Lee Hang, who is the minister of works and infrastructure has told the media that the prime minister is looking forward to returning on Sunday.
