BEVERLY HILLS, February 23, (THEWILL) – A former Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Board of Trustees, Chief Tony Anenih, has recounted a close shave he had with death some time ago and how six doctors abroad pointedly told him that his illness was incurable.
He disclosed this on Thursday at the 52nd birthday celebration of a former member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Ndudi Elumelu, in Abuja.
Asserting that God upturned the verdict of the doctors, Anenih explained that if he had accepted the report of the medical doctors, by now, he would have been in the other world.
According to him: “Life belongs to God and it is only God that has the power to take another man’s life. What happened to me in the hospital is enough proof. Imagine being declared impossible to live by six different medical doctors and surviving such reports.
“The truth is that no one has the power to take another man’s life unless God wills it. It is my pleasure to witness this life celebration because it’s a worthy celebration.
“It has been a long time I attended a public event and I had my personal reasons for taking that decision. But I am happy to be here as it has given me the opportunity to see people I have not seen for a very long time.”
The former minister, who used the event to call for the peaceful co-existence of the people of Nigeria, urged government not to sacrifice anything for the peace and security of lives of the citizens.
