The governor, who emerged from the Cedarcrest Orthopaedic hospital, Abuja, clutching a new set of walking aides, told journalists that Nigerians are capable of achieving medical feats at the same rate as those of medical practitioners in more developed economies.
He was quick, however, to advice people to follow their beliefs and convictions when faced with medical situations and have to decide where to get medical help because according to him, “it is not a situation where one size fits all.
“But for me, I have been convinced from the beginning that I can get medical treatment here and that was why we are here and up till this moment, I can only I appreciate my doctors.
“Once again, I thank God for sparing my life and I am very appreciative to all who contributed to my quick recovery since all these happened,” the governor stated.
He spared some time to send words home to the people of Kogi State who might be eager to witness his return to the state to pilot the affairs of the state.
Governor Wada told reporters outside the hospital that despite the rate of his recovery, he would still abide strictly by the doctors’ instructions.
In his words, “we have come this far because of the guidance of the doctors, I cannot discharge myself, but I will return to work as soon as my doctors declare me fit enough to return to work.”
Governor Wada, who rode in a convoy of three cars arrived the hospital in an Audi car with tinted glasses while his protocol officers and security details accompanied him in the other two cars.
As he alighted from the car at 10.34 a.m., cladding a sky blue kaftan and a hand-woven multi-coloured cap to match,he collected his arm-pit steeled crutches from his aides and went in to see the doctors as he greeted everyone he saw as he entered into the hospital.
