Draped in hospital clothing, bandages and anti-fatigue compression socks, the PDP stalwart who appears to have just had surgery said he is believing God that this would be his last.

Metuh said:

"No matter how angry you've been about my outspokenness or outright naked challenge to power back then, please pray for me.
