Governor Danbaba Danfulani Suntai of Taraba State returned from London to Abuja late last night after being away for medical checkup.
A statement by Suntai’s spokesman, Hassan Mijinyawa said the governor arrived the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja at about 10pm aboard a chartered flight in company of his wife, Hauwa, his medical team and security details on Monday."Governor Suntai remains grateful to the people of Taraba State for their strength of will and continuous prayers for him and the state," the statement added.
The statement however did not indicate whether Suntai will be coming to Government House, Jalingo this time around.
Suntai was involved in a plane crash on October 25, 2012, in which he was the pilot.
He has been in and out of hospital in Germany, United States of America and the United Kingdom since then.
He returned to Abuja from a UK hospital on September 13, 2014 and had remained in Abuja until he returned to London on November 2, 2014 for further medical checkup.
While Suntai was away, Taraba State High Court presided over by Justice Silas Haruna nullified the medical panel set up by the Speaker of Taraba state House of Assembly to investigate his health status.
Justice Haruna held that setting up a medical panel would amount to usurping judicial powers when an earlier suit filed by Suntai challenging the state lawmakers for refusing him to assume power as well as another suit by Mustapha Bello at the Supreme Court were yet to be decided.
