Senate Minority Leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio on Tuesday, flew to London from the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, in a private jet belonging to the Akwa Ibom State government accompanied by a cardiologist and a general doctor.

It will be recalled that Akpabio was involved in a car crash early on Monday morning, which left him briefly admitted at the trauma centre of the National Hospital in Abuja.

Sources said Akpabio was traumatised and in shock after the crash, which involved two SUVs.

Though doctors at the centre later gave him a clean bill of health and discharged him, sources close to the former governor said that he is going to a London hospital to seek further evaluation and possible treatment.
