Alliance for Change Chairman and Prominent Attorney at Law Nigel Hughes was flown to the city early yesterday morning after he suffered a heart attack. Hughes was at the time in the community of Aishalton, Region Nine after visiting displaced miners at Marudi.
Kaieteur News was told that Hughes was admitted to the Caribbean Heart Institute, where doctors are closely monitoring his condition. Reports are that the medical tests revealed a significant blockage in his Right Coronary Artery.
Local doctors have been in touch with cardiologists in two Caribbean islands and they have agreed that a surgical procedure to clear the blockage is necessary. They have taken into account his medical history.
This newspaper was told that family members appear prepared to make moves to have the Attorney flown out of Guyana for that procedure and other medical care. He is said to be very alert and has been talking with his medical team and family members. Roraima Airways carried out the medical evacuation from Region 9 where Hughes suffered a heart attack.
