Aziegbemi claimed that the former Edo House of Assembly speaker was not in a critical condition.
“When I visited him on Thursday, we spoke and he even told me how the incident happened. I wish him a quick recovery so that he can get back on his feet and contribute to the development of his people as he has always done.”
Onobun, who is representing Esan West, Esan Central and Igueben Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, was said to have sustained multiple fractures when a vehicle he was travelling in fell into a ditch along the Ekpoma-Abuja highway. He was said to be travelling from Benin to Abuja after missing his flight when the accident happened.
The lawmaker’s vehicle, a dark brown Mitsubishi SUV, was badly damaged; the airbag system was detached, the windshield shattered and the roof disfigured.All rights reserved.
