Nigeria's Social Critic Tony Uranta Is Partially Paralyzed From Illness

CKN NIGERIA Published: March 22, 2019

Nigeria's social critic, Mr Tony Uranta is down with an illness that has left him partially paralyzed.

Mr Uranta made the disclosure in a post on his social media handle obtained by CKN New.

Uranta who is married to Channels TV sportscaster Baarong used the occasion of the visit of Nobel laurette Prof Wole Soyinka to express his feeling on the illness that has kept him out of circulation for months.

Here is his post

"My Honey B-Baarong & I host my Egbon, Professor Wole Soyinka; Amazon Queen of Nigerians & #WeCare President, DrJoe Okei Odumakin; and, Women Arise's Gbenga Ganzallo @ our home...in Amy's Penthouse (temporarily converted to "TIU Rejuvenation Centre�), after spending over five months semi-comatose and paralysed in First Cardiologists Clinic, Ikoyi.

Should be walking un-assisted before May 2019.�

Steadfast friends aren't many, so I cherish the few I have o�

By the way, FCC� may be outrageously� expensive, but their doctors and standards will stand up to any very good doctors and standards world-wide!���������"

Human Rights Activist, Tony Uranta Is Critically Ill, Needs Our Prayers Right Now.

Precious Eze's BlogOctober 18, 2018

A former member of the Presidential Committee on National Conference, Mr. Tony Tamuni-Ipriye Uranta is critically ill and partially paralyzed from his right side body and needs our collective prayers.


The very vocal Human Rights Activist has been on the front burner for some years now, challenging governments successively over issues that has to do with human right and Niger Delta and known for being factual and never relenting on what he believed in.

Dr. Joe Odumakin of the Women Arise paid him a visit in the hospital and had these words to say.

“You're a staunch believer in the Nigeria Project! You've assiduously dedicated yourself to this cause. Our prayers for you as you recover is that it's going to be very soon. After this test, a testimony would come. I personally wish you a very speedy recovery, Comrade.

Tony Uranta responded thus... With patriots like Prof Wole Soyinka and my colleague Dr Joe Odumakin who are overseeing Nigeria's fortunes on behalf of the Nigerian masses, even though I'm temporary paralysed, I know Nigeria will get better.

Tony Uranta is currently the Executive Secretary of the Nigerian National Summit Group and married to broadcaster, Barong Tony-Uranta of Channels Television.
