The Imo State Government is concluding arrangement with the family of the retired Supreme Court Justice, Chukwudife Oputa to fly him abroad for further treatment.
Oputa was rushed to the Federal Medical Centre Owerri, three days ago after family members said he suffered severe stroke.
Governor Rochas Okorocha, who visited
the ailing legal luminary at the hospital on Wednesday, confirmed to
reporters that government was already discussing Oputa’s medical trip
abroad with his family.
Though he tried to dispel fears about
the severity of Oputa’s case, Okorocha declined to give details about
the elderstatesman’s health.
The nonagenarian retired Justice who
hails from Oguta Council Area of Imo State is currently on admission in
Room 4 at FMC, Owerri.
Reporters were however not allowed to see him, even though they followed the governor to the hospital.
