Gov Peter Obi Visits Akunyili in India, Calls on Nigerians to Pray for Her

The former Governor of Anambra State, Mr. Peter Obi, has called on Nigerians to remember the former Minister of Information, Prof. Dora Akunyili, in their prayers.
 
He made the call yesterday from India where he had gone to visit the former minister who is undergoing treatment in an India  hospital.
 
Obi, who expressed happiness that Nigerians across ethnic and religious divides are together in wishing Akunyili well, unlike the condemnable practice whereby sicknesses  of highly-placed Nigerians are celebrated for what Nigerians think as punishment for their contributions  to the nation’s woes, said the gesture explained how dear and beholden she is to Nigerians.
 
“In spite of the unacceptability of the  practice  of rejoicing over people’s misfortune, the love, concern and care Nigerians have shown to Dora is a testimony that anybody who serves Nigerians faithfully as Dora has continued to do, will forever be etched in their psyches,” he said.
 
Obi thanked God for the tremendous improvement on her health and said the reality he saw was a direct opposite of the grim  picture  some people painted about her condition.
 
The former governor prayed to God to grant her total healing.
