Olaleye Aluko , Abuj a
The Minister of State for Education, Prof . Anthony Anwuka , who was flown to the United States for medical treatment , came back on Sunday after spending 27 days .
Anwuka , who arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport , Abuja , at about 6 pm, told journalists that he did not receive any funds from the Federal Government, but was sponsored by his son , a doctor in Dallas , USA .
The news of the ailing minister flown to the US was first confirmed by the Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu , who asked that prayers be said for Anwuka during a briefing in Abuja two weeks ago .
Anwuka on Sunday said he was diagnosed of having high cholesterol level , and applied to the Federal Government to leave on September 18 .
He said , “ I went for check - up and I was told I had a high cholesterol . I then reported to my son , who is a doctor in the United States . It was my state governor , the Imo State Governor , Rochas Okorocha , who got me the ticket .
“ I went to Aso Rock and applied for my leave . It was granted and I left on September 18 . I am back to work now . My trip was sponsored by my son and my governor . The government had no penny at all inside it.
“ There was no support from the Federal Government. I did not ask for it. I only applied for my leave and left . Maybe now that I am back , I could ask . ”

Mr Minister you've got no problem. After all, if your employer can travel for more than 3months leaving a whole nation and its economy in shambles then you as a ''sidon look minister'' can do same.

After every every una stil de smile to d bank @d end of the month while d gullible zombies are still suffering n smiling.

Hmmm good health Mr minister

Thank God it wasn't from government coffers because no politician deserve to use our tax money for all these

His doctor son is married to rochas' daughter so there is no need announcing how he got the money
