Following this, he had undergone two brain surgeries which gradually brought about his restoration to health.

“I can only say that it’s by the grace of God that I’m alive today because I passed out. I was out for like five and a half hours before help came.”
He noted that although the first surgical procedure was done on January 1st, he had another one a month later when scans showed that there was still a blood clot present.
“Before the surgery, I couldn’t recognise people. Some of the people who came to the hospital to see me, I didn’t even know that they came and we were talking but I couldn’t remember them. I was my wife who told me those who came.
“But immediately after the surgery, the first question I asked was, ‘What day are we today?’ My wife said new year day and I started wishing everybody happy new year. She said that was when she knew that I am back,” he said.
