May the merciful God heal him. He is corrupt but I rather wish him repentance than wish him sick or dead.

He must have received a huge sum of "prayer points" in his bank account, sorry, I mean in his mail box.

High BP caused by the masterminding of atrocities, alcohol and sex are what drain politicians.

Lol. Probably stroke.

Akpabio is my guy anytime any day, his performance as a governor in Akwa-Ibom state is top notch.

I wish him good health...but I don't trust them.

He was probably exhausted after his marathon at the stadium

God bless the good people of Southsouth and Southwest

Hope it's not cosmetic collapsing because Nigeria na cruise.

Ronus may say IPOB pushed him from behind.
