Speaking with journalists, the Akpabio described the speculation about his health as the imagination of the purveyors.
While dismissing the speculation, the Senate President said there is noting like that stressing that he is fit like fiddle.

The Senate President had attended the sixth World Conference of Speakers of Parliament in Geneva, Switzerland, from July 29 to 31, before proceeding to the United Kingdom.
