Prof. Anthony Anwukah
Minister of State for Education, Prof. Anthony Anwukah, who had
been in US hospital in search of solution for an undisclosed ailment for
weeks now, has been certified fit by his doctors.Daily Sun authoritatively gathered that barring any new medical
development, the ailing Minister would return to Nigeria, on Sunday, to
continue his official duties.
Media aide to the minister, Anthony Akuneme, who confirmed the
arrival of the Minister for Sunday, declined comment about his time of
arrival but said that the doctors had assented to his return to Nigeria.
Anwukah was flown abroad some weeks ago when his undisclosed
ailment became critical and required urgent attention of specialized
doctors that could only be found abroad.
Prior to his oversea medical trip, the Minister was said to have
been a regular visitor to both local and foreign hospitals in recent
months, apparently, in search of solution to an undisclosed ailment that
he had been battling with.
Meanwhile, the Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, early in
the month, appealed to Ministry staff and other well-wishers to include
his ailing colleague, Anwukah, in their prayers.
The Permanent Secretary in the ministry, Sunny Echono, also led a
special prayer session for Anwukah at a public function held at the
Ministry’s headquarters located in the Federal Secretariat Complex,
Abuja.
