Governor Ifeanyi Okowa Of Delta State,  reportedly slumped last Wednesday at the government house in Asaba.

According to Sahara Reporters, an impeccable government house source, who pleaded for anonymity, told them Mr. Okowa was billed to attend the World Teachers Day celebration at the cenotaph last Wednesday.
However, after all preparations were put in place, Mr. Okowa reportedly slumped at his office
preventing his attendance.
The source disclosed that immediately the governor was whisked away from the office to an undisclosed place for medical attention, his deputy, Kingsley Otuaro, was called to represent him at the event.
“I can tell you categorically that since that Wednesday till today the governor has not attended any public function.
If you watch well, all the public functions, it’s the deputy that is representing him. Though, we can’t tell why he slumped and the illness he is suffering from.
Before becoming the state governor, he has been battling with unknown health challenges. Even when he was in the senate, he was with this unknown illness but some people close to him said what he is suffering from could not be far from some blood related illness,” the source stated.
All efforts to contact the State Commissioner for Information, Patrick Ukah, proved abortive as his mobile line was switched off. However, the Chief Press Secretary (CPS) to governor, Charles Aniagwu swiftly debunked the story claiming it was not true.
