The state Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party, Tony Aziegbemi, who confirmed this to our correspondent on Friday, said Onobun who was the immediate past Speaker, Edo State House of Assembly, sustained injuries during the accident and had been hospitalised at the University of Benin Teaching Hospital, where he is receiving treatment.
Aziegbemi said Onobun was not in a critical condition as he spoke to him when he visited him in the hospital on Thursday.
“I can confirm to you that he had an accident on Wednesday and he had fractures in some parts of his body but he is responding and not in critical condition.
