Anozie said: “As I speak with you now, he has been discharged from the hospital where he underwent  several tests including a computer brain scan to determine the enormity of the injury but he is now in a stable condition”.

He added that he type of injury he sustained requires that he be rested for at least two weeks during which he would be seriously monitored to ensure he does not engage in any rigorous activity which, he said could trigger more problems for him.
