Kogi State Governor Idris Wada who was injured in a fatal auto
accident last Friday was yesterday discharged from the Cedar Crest
Hospital, Abuja where he had been receiving treatment for a broken
thigh. Wada, who lost his Aide de Camp (ADC) in the car crash, had been
receiving treatment in Abuja since the crash occured. Wada was said to
have left the hospital at about 9 am yesterday in the company with his
aides, amidst tight security.
Certifying the governor fit, the Chief Medical Director of the
hospital, who was in charge of the treatment, Dr Felix Ogedengbe, said
that it was better for Wada to recuperate fully at home for his thigh to
heal permanently. According to the doctor, the treatment given to the
governor would allow him to move around, adding that the fracture would
heal fully in about six months.
While on admission in the hospital, the Kogi governor received many
high profile visitors, including President Goodluck Jonathan. Dr.
Ogedengbe had earlier at a press conference declared that there was no
need for the governor to be flown abroad for further medical treatment.
The governor’s driver, who also sustained injuries in the car crash, is
said to be stable and responding to treatment.
