The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olisa Metuh on Tuesday slipped off a swivel chair and landed on his waist.
He was about taking his seat when the chair rolled backward, causing him to miss the seat.
The impact of the fall kept Metuh writhing pain, as he was helped out of the National Working Committee hall, venue of inauguration ceremony of the Borno and Kebbi states caretaker committees of the PDP.
Apparently having sprained his waist, two policemen had to practically carry him out of the party secretariat into a waiting car to the hospital.
The accident slowed down the ceremony, which was about to begin for about ten minutes.
Alhaji Rilwan Dauda was sworn-in as caretaker committee chairman for Borno state while the Kebbi state chapter had Hon. Ibrahim Shehu Gusau as chairman.
The National Chairman of the PDP, Alhaji Ali Modu Sheriff urged the committees to be fair in the discharge of their duties.
