Taraba State Governor Danbaba Suntai is suffering from loss of speech and inability to comprehend what people say to him because of brain injuries that could take years to fully cure, one of his personal physicians has said.
Dr. Zakari Yusuf Aliyu, a professor of Medicine and Public Health, and Chief Medical Director of Taraba State Specialist Hospital Jalingo, said he recently visited the governor in Germany where he has been receiving medication since October last year, following the crash of a plane he was piloting near Yola, Adamawa State.Aliyu said Suntai suffered injury to his brain during the plane crash, and that it could take “weeks, months, even years for him to come back to his pre-accident state.
”There have been conflicting accounts of Suntai’s health, with media reports quoting sources saying he is in a bad shape while his aides insist that he has recovered and would soon return to Nigeria.Prof. Aliyu’s revelation is the first time a doctor and Taraba State public officer is coming out publicly to discuss the governor’s state of health.
I think it is a good development because information like this were never given. I hope it is the whole truth and that he recovers soon enough.
