Attaching a photo of his father in ICU, he included a short prayer in the message “God I believe you heal, you healed baby Satrin, baby scandy chelangat, mariam and millions of patients with serious complications”
Senator Sonko and his dad are very close and has in many occasions attributed his success to him. It will be remembered that a few weeks ago, during Sonko’s graduation, a video of his father gleefully dancing was doing rounds on social media.
"All will be well" The comments that followed the post said with one voice.
