Bong Go meets with OFW he helped to recover from coma

Senator Bong Go went to Kalibo, Aklan to personally check the progress of an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) who is recovering from being in a coma for six months. 
 
Go met with Aljohn Andrade last week in Aklan. Andrade was a waiter in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He was found badly injured and unconscious beside a road on July 1, 2018. 
 
Andrade has reportedly fought back when some Saudi nationals mugged him and hit him in his head with a steel pipe.
 
The senator has been helping the OFW in paying his hospital bills and therapy sessions.
 
Go paid his medical expenses when he came back to the Philippines and consistently gives Andrade’s family financial help during his recovery period.
 
The senator says that he will continue helping Andrade until he fully recovers.
