Suntai’s Health Improving, State PDP Chairman Claims

AT last, the present health situation of Governor Danbaba Suntai of Taraba State who is in Germany undergoing medication following the ill-fated plane crash of October 25 he was involved in has been made public.
The governor, according to the state’s People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Victor Bala Kona, “has been discharged from the intensive care unit and has since been relocated to the ward.”
Kona, whom The Guardian learnt has been in Germany twice to visit the ailing governor, made this known Friday during the stakeholders and executive meeting of the party members, which took place at the state secretariat of the party in Jalingo. He expressed optimism that the governor would “soon be discharged from the hospital.”
According to him, “though I am not a doctor but from all indication during my last visit, there is every possibility that he will soon be discharged from the hospital. His condition has greatly improved and is responding to treatment.”
Kona who noted that the executive members have mapped out plans to reposition the party in the state said a standing disciplinary committee has been constituted to try erring members found guilty of contravening the provisions of the party’s constitution.
This, according to Kona, would not only catapult the party to greater height, but would as well instill absolute discipline among members of the party in the nooks and crannies of the state.
According to Kona, who was visibly elated by the massive turn out of party stakeholders in the state at the meeting, the committee would be given the much needed power to bring to book those who go contrary to the party’s constitution in the state irrespective of the status.
“Let me make it abundantly clear that the party is above every one of us, no matter the position one is occupying and therefore it must be respected as long as we are members of PDP.”
