Sombre dinner as Sir Ketumile fails to attend

The venue was Masa Hotel, Thursday evening. Earlier in the day, officials at IDM said the former President had interacted with them during their weeklong networking sessions with the visiting Ohio University officials. However news filtered in by the evening that Sir Ketumile had suffered an attack and had been rushed to hospital.

A press release from his foundation would later announce that the former President was under-going surgery without revealing much, and urging the media to respect his privacy.
