Taraba state governor Danbaba Suntai has stated that he will not appear before the panel constituted by the state house of assembly to ascertain his state of health.
Speaking through the Taraba state attorney-general and commissioner of justice Timothy Kataps, Suntai on Sunday, September 21, 2014 said it was not necessary for him to appear before the panel as the case was already in court.
Kataps said, “Remember that the issue of a medical team to examine Suntai was part of the reliefs we sought in an earlier suit we filed against the House of Assembly. So, until that case is dispensed with, it will not be wise for the governor to appear before any medical team.”
Suntai has remained in Abuja since his return from the UK where he had gone for treatment following a helicopter accident he suffered in 2012.
