He Cannot Longer Function Normally – US Doctors Give Up On Gov Suntai by Aderostock(m): 8:32pm On Jun 19, 2013 |
Neurological doctors treating Governor Danbaba Suntai of Taraba State in the United States have told his family and the state government footing his medical bills the governor cannot return to normal state of mental health that would enable him to function as a governor. Mr. Suntai first received treatment at the famous John Hopkins University Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland, before moving to a rehabilitation center in upstate New York, both of which have reportedly given up on the chances of full recovery of Mr. Suntai. In October 2012, he survived an aircrash near Yola Airport and was flown to Germany for treatment for brain injuries. A medical source told SaharaReporters that when Mr. Suntai was brought in from Germany, he had swelling in his brain and had lost significant control of his ability to recognize people or speak coherently. The source also described the governor as drooling like a baby. After several months of treatment in the US the doctors have now told Mr. Suntai's family and the deputy governor of Taraba State who came visiting two weeks ago that Mr. Suntai be sent home to manage his condition as there is nothing more that can be done to heal him. The State government has spent close to $3.5 million on Mr. Suntai's treatment in the US alone. At a meeting with his Deputy two weeks ago, Mr. Suntai was seen in photographs laughing out loud, but our medical sources said he repeats anything told to him several times until he is told to stop. A clip of Mr. Suntai meeting with his deputy was shown on the Nigerian Television Authority network, with the sound curiously muted. Mr. Suntai's wife and a few political office holders, including the Commissioner of Information, Emmanuel Bello, are reportedly manipulating the media by claiming that Suntai has fully recovered and is on his way to resuming power as governor. He has been seen in photos that appear to be stage-managed for brief moments to show the ailing governor as though fully healed, but nobody has heard him speak or answer any questions. Mr. Suntai, a trained pilot, was personally flying the aircraft in which he was injured. http://m.naij.com/news/37663.html |

As things stand, it would have been better for him to have lost his life to the aircrash. Now, he only survived to become an object of ridicle. His state also wasted money on him. The money could have been used to provide good roads and quality education among other things for the people of his state. |

greatgod2012: I said it before and i will still say it......i reserve my comment until i see him back to the country. Why wouldn't they lie when they know that the end of Suntai is the end of their looting as they will be pushed aside as soon as another person takes over the office of the Governor. Have you forgotten Yaradua's case and the role Andokaa played? |
