DailyPost was informed that colleagues and families of the Governor’s aides were getting worried that the three officers needed more state attention than they were getting before now and hence called on the state government for its intervention. The National Hospital spokesperson, Tayo Haastrup, confirmed that the trio are in the National hospital but said it was difficult to independently confirm the level of injuries sustained by the aides.
