   Our reporter said members of the delegation were shocked to see Mr. Suntai in an unconcious  situation.The reporter said that “His condition was so bad that they could not publicly disclose his condition after they returned to Nigeria,”

  Reporters gathered that Mr. Suntai suffered brain damage in the plane crash of the small plane he was in. The crash happened a short distance from the Yola airport. Initial reports from eyewitnesses said Mr. Suntai had died, but it later emerged that he had survived the crash,though with critical injuries. He was transferred to the National Hospital in Abuja before he was taken to Germany after President Jonathan had visited him.The other Four state officials traveling with the governor  in the crashed plane were treated in hospitals in Adamawa and later transferred to Germany for treatment.

The officials of the Taraba State government has been claiming that the governor was making remarkable recovery since he traveeled to germany. But our sources, including an official of the state government, admitted that Mr. Suntai’s mental faculty had depreciated since the accident .

  An activist stated that the Presidency should state the truth about the injured governor’s condition to enable the people of Taraba to move ahead with a new administration. “The fact that the people of Taraba have not heard from or seen the governor since the air crash on October 25 2012 means that the man is no longer fit to govern them.
