Authoritatively,the injured Governor Danbaba Suntai who had been away from the state since year October, has returned to Jalingo, Taraba
State capital yesterday Sunday 25th,August 2013. His plane which
brought Suntai along with his aides and junior brother, a Hawker 800,touched
down at 3:40pm at the Jalingo Airport, amidst tight security.
.
‘’Two other small aircraft, a
Dornier, with registration number 224 BA, ferried members of the governor’s
family, while another one marked 5NBMR, conveyed his friends and associates and
touched down at 3:45pm’’
He was received by the Deputy
Governor, Garba Umar, who has been acting since the absence of Suntai, and former
Minister of Defense General Theophilus Danjuma (rtd.); former Minister of
Information, Professor Jerry Gana; Minister of State, Niger Delta, Darius
Ishaku; Chairman, Senate Committee on Agriculture, Senator Emmanuel Bwacha,
among others while
his wife, Hajia Hauwa Suntai, who arrived the
state with his children last Friday ahead of the Governor’s return was also in
attendance.
However, Suntai did not address the hordes of party chieftains
and supporters, who had gathered, apparently expecting him to speak to them or
relive his experience since the unfortunate incident of October 25, 2012, when
his plane went down, inflicting him with injury that took him to two countries—
Germany and the United States of America— for treatment.
The state’s Commissioner for
Information, Mr. Emma Bello said: “Today is a good day for Taraba people. The
governor has returned to a tumultuous welcome and we are happy with his arrival
in Jalingo.”
In as much as happy with the families
friends, and entire Nigerian to GOD for saving the life of the Governor
Suntai,the question i want to ask are :what
is the need to charter 3 JET to conveyed 1. GOVERNOR, 2.GOVERNOR’S
FAMILY.3.GOVERNOR’S ASSOCIATE ? Secondly,
why cant they all entered same aircraft from America? Thirdly, who will bear
this cost? Is this how the tax payer money goes?
