to the Minority Leader of the Senate who is in
your hospital. And they connected him. The room
number was Room 215. And he spoke with me.

He said, Akpabio we are praying for you. Insha
Allah, it shall be well with you.” Akpabio said at a
programme to celebrate the 28th anniversary of the
state.

“When that accident happened, I was rushing in
the morning to join my daughter who was ill in her
school abroad and when it happened I lost
consciousness and all I shouted was God take care
of my children and my people,”he said
