Taraba Governor, Suntai, Might Be Flown In Next Week

       
History has a way of repeating itself as there are strong indications that what played out at the height of the illness of the late President Umaru Musa Yar`Adua when he was brought back from Saudi Arabia under the cover of darkness and kept at the State House, Abuja even in his dying state may soon repeat itself in Taraba State.

This is because plans are said to be underway to fly ailing Governor Danbaba Suntai into the country in the cover of darkness in a bid by his loyalists to retain the governorship.

A source hinted that the governor would soon be flown into the country and only trusted aides would be allowed to see him. The source said that the plan to bring him home was being conceived following the decision of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to set up a committee headed by Senator Hope Uzodimma to look into the prolonged absence of Suntai and recommend ways of addressing the problem

Suntai’s photograph stirs controversy...


According to the Tribune, the photograph of the ailing governor of Taraba State, Danbaba Suntai, released through the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) and used by frontline newspapers in Nigeria on Wednesday is generating controversies.
Governor Suntai sustained injuries when a small plane he was piloting crashed near Yola Airport in Adamawa State on October 27, 2012. There were five other passengers in the plane at the time of the crash.
Most Nigerians who called Nigerian Tribune to comment on the picture of Suntai with his wife, carrying one of his recently born twins, on the front pages of newspapers said they smell a rat.
The readers are of the view that all one needs is just to take a simple look at the picture to know that it is simply a fluke.
Some of the readers even likened the whole saga to the days of the late President Umaru Yar’Adua.
