Sullivan Chime
At last, the Governor of
Enugu State, Mr. Sullivan Chime, is back in the country after being away for
140 days reportedly treating an undisclosed ailment. Mr. Chime arrived the Nnamdi Azikiwe
International Airport,
Abuja, this
morning aboard a British Airways flight.
Some reports say he is still in Abuja at
the Enugu State Government Lodge and is expected to come into Enugu on Friday where his protracted absence
has caused considerable disquiet.
Chime had left the country
in September to spend what the Enugu
State Government said was his accumulated leave. Initial reports said he was in India and
critically ill. It was even remoured that he had passed away, a report that was
strongly refuted by the Enugu State Government.
Later, reports confirmed he was in a London hospital.
