Ailing Governor Suntai Turns Fisherman [PHOTO] by airclipse(m): 12:35pm On Oct 21, 2013 |
In what many would describe as ‘Miracle of Suhem’, ailing Taraba State Governor, Dambaba Suntai miraculously turned fisherman over the weekend. An indication that the Governor’s health appears to have improved significantly emerged yesterday as he entered a red Range Rover Sports HSC, which conveyed him to the fish farm without help. The Governor, alongside his wife, Hauwa; their twin children, his younger brother, Babangida Suntai; Senior Special Assistant (SSA) on Media and Publicity, Mr. Sylvanus Giwa, and Chief Press Secretary, Alhaji Hassan Mijinyawa stormed a fish pond located near the School of Nursing at Jalingo Bye-pass in the state capital to have some good time. However, his over one hour outing, yielded no catch as he toiled in vain. The governor jokingly said the fish cheated on him. “Kifi sun chuche ni, dun sun riga su chi abinchi,” he said in Hausa, meaning: “the fish cheated on me because they are already fed.” It was learnt that on arrival at the pond, the embattled governor asked the farm manager to give him the fish feeds, which he threw into the pond for the fish to show up. The farm manager also brought him a hook and line and an earthworm, which he used as bait. However, fish refused to go for the bait, a drama which sent the small audience into laughter. His wife, Hauwa occasionally teased her husband about his inability to make a catch. At a point, the wife herself almost fell into the pond after slipping at the edge of the pond and the husband told her, “If you fall into the water I will fish you out.” The Governor’s failed effort made one of the security men laugh with Suntai, telling him to return home if he could not be quiet. “Noise scares fish,” he said. Suntai left the pond with a promise to return in a few days, this time to catch as many of the fish as possible. SOURCE dailypost.com.ng/2013/10/21/ailing-governor-suntai-turns-fisherman-photo/
