Taraba State Governor, Danbaba Danfulani Suntai will Tuesday leave the country for London, United Kingdom for medical checkup.
The governor was flown from Jalingo to Abuja in a Skyjet plane marked ZS-KBS Monday afternoon.
With him on the trip were his Chief Detail, Joel Danladi and the Chief Security Officer (CSO) Tino Dangana who survived the air crashwith him, his Chief of Staff Aminu Jika, his brother Babangida Suntai and other loyalists.
Suntai’s Chief Press Secretary, Alhaji Hassan Mijinyawa told TheNation that the governor will spend 14 days abroad before returning home.
“My doctors said I will spend two weeks for the check up. But you know, that depends on the outcome of things and their (doctor’s) decision,” the recuperating governor said at the Jalingo Airport Monday.
Suntai fielded questions to the local media while alighting from an Escalade ESV jeep that drove him to the airport.
He asked the people of Taraba to continue to pray for him to fully recover.
“Prayer is the most important thing I need as at now. The people have stood by me since the day I had this accident. They should continue in their prayers; their prayers have helped me tremendously,” he said.
