Akpabio Returns To Nigeria, Dismisses Rumoured Ill-health
Senate President Godswill Akpabio has returned to Nigeria from a brief vacation in London, dismissing rumors about his health. Akpabio arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja and was received at the Presidential Wing by his aides and supporters.
Speculation had arisen about his health after reports that he was critically ill and receiving treatment in a London hospital. However, Akpabio attended the Sixth World Conference of Speakers of Parliament in Geneva from July 29 to 31, before proceeding to London for a short stay.
Upon his arrival, he stated that he was "fit as a fiddle" and defended the size of Nigeria's delegation at the Geneva conference. Akpabio assured Nigerians of robust legislative activity when the Senate reconvenes, pledging continued cooperation with the executive and judiciary.
