Senate President Godswill Akpabio
Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has faulted media reports on his alleged collapse at a colloquium marking his 61st birthday in Abuja on Thursday, December 14, 2023.
Akpabio, while speaking at a news conference in Abuja on Friday, said he felt a bit uncomfortable at the colloquium, partly due to exhaustion, caused by stress.
The former governor of Akwa Ibom State said: “I have been reading on the social media the propaganda about my collapse, but I’m happy the Senate Press Corps did not join in the show of propaganda.

”I went home and I called my doctors and I was told that I had a bit of malaria, mingled with stress.
“The stress could also be described in another way as exhaustion. In fact, anybody could be exhausted, please drink water daily so that you don’t get exhausted.
“I want to assure Nigerians that the National Assembly is intact and we are still going on with our duty on the appropriation bill.
“We will resume on December 20 but before then, the various committees must have finished their works to enable us meet the target to pass the budget before the end of the year for the president to append his signature.”
