Tension heightened on Friday as
Gen. Yakubu Gowon, a former Nigerian Head of State slumped during the oration
at the graveside of the late Maj.Gen.David Akpodiete Ejoor in Ovwor-Olomu
Community, Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta State.
Military personnel, however, made
fruitless efforts to bar visual coverage of the ugly incident.
The former Head of State was
promptly rushed by some top echelons of the military into the special tenth for
emergency resuscitation just as Governor Arthur Ifeanyi Okowa and Chief James
Onanefe Ibori, former Governor of the Delta State dashed into the tenth to
ensure he recovers.
A military, as well as the Delta
State ambulances, were immediately moved to the front of the tenth in case the
former Head of State’s health deteriorates further.
After a moment of suspense, Chief
James Onanefe Ibori and Governor Arthur Ifeanyi Okowa were seen coming from the
special tenth, an indication that the former Army General has recovered.
