Akwa Ibom Government refutes $1.5m bribery allegation against Governor Udom Emmanuel

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 28 Aug 2019 22:30:00 +0100

Tribunal: Akwa Ibom Government refutes $1.5m bribery allegation against Governor Udom Emmanuel

The Akwa Ibom state government has debunked allegation that Governor Udom Emmanuel paid $1.5million to Justice A. M. Yakubu, the presiding judge for the Akwa Ibom governorship election petitions tribunal.

In a statement sent to journalists on Wednesday, August 27, the state's attorney general and commissioner for justice, Barr. Uwemedimoh Nwoko, stated that the allegation raised by one Leo Ekpenyong against the governor and the tribunal judge, was false and unsubstantial.

Nwoko said Governor Udom Emmanuel has not had any contact directly or through proxy, with the tribunal judges since they were appointed.

Part of the statement reads: “We state most categorically and without any equivocation that there is absolutely no scintilla of truth in Leo Ekpenyong’s wild and unsubstantiable allegations.

“His Excellency, Governor Udom Emmanuel does not know and has never met Honourable Justice Justice A. M. Yakubu, or any other judge on the panel. His Excellency, has made no personal contact or through a proxy with any of the judges.

“It is most uncharitable and unconscionable for Leo Ekpenyong and his pay masters to attempt to rubbish and bring to disrepute the sterling reputation and character of Governor Emmanuel.”

“Let us equally state here that it is not only morally reprehensible but also legally culpable for Leo Ekpenyong to so unconscionably attack the name and character of innocent Judges who accepted to serve the nation in a critical national assignment.

“Barrister Leo Ekpenyong is known to be a serial blackmailer. He was known to be the mastermind of all the petitions against Chief Godswill Akpabio, the former governor of Akwa Ibom state and now minister of Niger Delta affairs to the EFCC and ICPC until Akpabio succumbed to his blackmail and handsomely paid him to recapitulate.”

Meanwhile, the state government has challenged Leo Ekpenyong to publish factual evidence to buttress his allegation, else it will institute legal actions against him at the expiration of seven days.

RE: JUDGEMENT FOR SALE IN AKWA IBOM STATE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY ELECTIONS PETITION TRIBUNAL

The attention of the Akwa Ibom State Government has been drawn to a publication by one Barrister Leo Ekpenyong in the Metro Daily Newspaper of August 25, 2019 which was also widely circulated across social media platforms. In the said publication, the writer made wild and insidious allegations against the Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Mr. Udom Emmanuel. To be specific, Leo Ekpenyong, Esq. wrote, inter alia,

“… Justice W. O. Akanbi who many thought was a righteous judge has received a whooping $1.5m (US dollars) from Governor Udom Emmanuel and has recruited Justice Ebetu, another member of the Tribunal from Beyelsa to join in the judgment for sale scam” .

“…Akanbi has clearly jettisoned justice in preference for Governor Udom’s sordid money and Greek gift, since according to him he has just two years before retirement. He further told our informant that even if he were to spend 10 more years on the bench, his emoluments would not be compared to Governor Udom’s bribe money to pervert the course of justice”.

We state most categorically and without any equivocation that there is absolutely no scintilla of truth in Leo Ekpenyong’s wild and unsubstantiable allegations. His Excellency, Governor Udom Emmanuel does not know and has never met Honourable Justice Akanbi or any other Judge on the Panel. His Excellency, has made no personal contact or through a proxy with any of the Judges.

It is therefore, most uncharitable and unconscionable for Leo Ekpenyong and his pay masters to attempt to rubbish and bring to disrepute the sterling reputation and character of Governor Emmanuel.

Let us equally state here that it is not only morally reprehensible but also legally culpable for Leo Ekpenyong to so unconscionably attack the name and character of innocent Judges who accepted to serve the nation in a critical national assignment.

Barrister Leo Ekpenyong is known to be a serial blackmailer. He was known to be the mastermind of all the petitions against Chief Godswill Akpabio, the former Governor of Akwa Ibom State and now Minister of Niger Delta Affairs to the EFCC and ICPC until Akpabio succumbed to his blackmail and handsomely paid him to recapitulate.

Let us state emphatically here that Leo Ekpenyong has taken his trade of blackmail across redlines. We demand that Leo Ekpenyong should produce the factual evidence to establish his allegations against His Excellency, Governor Udom Emmanuel within Seven (7) days of this publication and publish same in at least three (3) reputable National Newspapers. If he fails to do so, we shall be left with no option but to deploy the full weight of the law, both civil and criminal, against him.

Leo Ekpenyong may be well guided to note that this is not a threat.

UWEMEDIMO NWOKO, ESQ.

Honourable Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice

Nsima Ekere Promises to take up the Ibaka sea port as a first priority

Obong Nsima Ekere, the gubernatorial flag bearer of the APC in Akwa Ibom State in an interview with newsmen today 6th March, 2019 has made known his dissatisfaction with the lack-lustre commitment of Udom Emmanuel’s administration towards the commencement of the Ibaka sea port project.

Obong Nsima Ekere explained that the Ibaka sea port is the biggest and most significant project in Akwa Ibom state capable of collapsing completely the unemployment figure in the state and as well as attracting further urbanisation and relocation of major production firms in the long run.

He reiterated that the establishment of the port would further increase the Significance of Akwa Ibom to neighbouring states within the region, especially where the government carefully ensures that the activities and processes in the port are friendly enough for logistic companies and agents to do business without any hitches.

Mr. Ekere hereafter enjoined the people of Akwa Ibom state to support his bid to the Hill Top mansion as the dreaded level of unemployment will be dealt with as his commitment to the Ibaka project remains unshaken.

Udom Emmanuel’s Ikpe rice farm scam dislodged by the clan Head of Ini L.G.A

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 16:14:00 +0100

In a conversation with news men in his palace at Mbiabet Ikpe community, Obong Etim Edward Akpan called on the business moguls, cooperate firms and any interested government to invest in the rice farm which has shown practical capacity to generate high returns.

This was after he had clearly elucidated to men of the press that the rice farm which began in 1950 has from inception been own and managed by private indigenes of the state. He further reiterated that the farm doesn’t belong to any agency or government as against the claims made by governor Udom Emmanuel.

The clan head further mentioned that they are in need of investors who will further develop the swamp to enhance the capacity of the rice farm.

Also speaking to the newsmen, the chairman of Mbiabet Ikpe Village Mr. Etim Okon added that the rice farm is owned by individuals and there is no form of assistance from the government.

They further complained that the rice mill in the community was in dire need of support as the facility is becoming obsolete. Mr. Josiah Udo Ekanem who is the mill operator had said that he himself renovated the mill for the community use and has not been able to access agricultural loan even after opening an account with the bank as directed.

Uyo Market Women Drum support for Obong Nsima Ekere

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 16:06:00 +0100

The Uyo Market Women association have called on all their members to vote for Obong Nsima Ekere on Saturday the 9th March, 2019.

The leadership of the Market women and her teaming members had vehemently decided that the market needs urgent attention from the government in order to be able to address some of their outstanding concerns bordering around efficient drainage and the entire market economy.

The people maintained that the hardship and unemployment rate in Akwa Ibom state is an indication for Akwa Ibom people to vote for Obong Nsima Ekere.

According to the women, lack of proper and prompt settlements such as pension arrears and all forms of payment by Udom Emmanuel has contributed drastically to the low economic performance of the traders.

The leadership of the market women said they have strategically planned to ensure that Obong Nsima Ekere emerges the next governor of Akwa Ibom state against all odds.

PDP has resorted to throwing bombs in Akwa Ibom State

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 15:58:00 +0100

The atrocities committed by the desperate PDP leadership and her thugs in Akwa Ibom state took a new turn as they have graduated from using guns to the use of explosives in the state.

During the APC agents’ training program in Uyo at the APC campaign ground against the State House/Gubernatorial elections slated to hold on Saturday 9th March, 2019, an improvised explosive device was unleashed on the people by suspected PDP thugs.

This incident which occurred at about 7:30pm on the 5th of march 2019 left many people critically injured as Three victims are currently lying unconscious in the hospital.

However, reports have confirmed that another person was wounded by a bullet based on sporadic shootings by the thugs after the blast.

According to eye witnesses, these desperation by Governor Udom Emmanuel is taken too far as the blood of an Akwa Ibom child does not worth any politicians selfish ambition.

Breaking: Governor Udom Emmanuel calls President Buhari 2 days to the Gubernatorial Elections

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 15:54:00 +0100

Information reaching us from reliable sources have confirmed that Governor Udom Gabriel Emmanuel early this morning, Wednesday the 6th of March, 2019 put a call through to President Muhammadu Buhari again.

According to our source, the Governor was pleading with the President to support his second term ambition. He also promised to decamp to the APC when he wins the governorship election.

Indication from all quarters show that Governor Udom Emmanuel is really desperate and would do anything to get the support of the Federal Government during the March 9th polls.

Efforts to reach the Governor's Chief Press Secretary to confirm this story was not successful as his phone lines were not reachable when filling this report.

Akwa Ibom PDP, Afraid of losing their point man “Igini”

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 15:51:00 +0100

Akwa Ibom PDP, Afraid of losing their point man “Igini”

The party leadership of the PDP had earlier rushed to the court seeking an ex parte order to stall the removal of Mr. Mike Igini as the INEC REC in akwa Ibom state following the news of his likely redeployment.

This was of course, one of the many desperate moves of Governor Udom Emmanuel to keep their "party member, Mr. Igini" intact, realising that the entirety of Akwa Ibom sons and daughters will not return him to office given a fair electoral process.

The PDP administration is doing all it can without leaving any stones turned to have Mr. Igini who had help play their scripts during the Senatorial/presidential elections held last month.

Our sources have it that plans have been concluded by Mr. Igini and the PDP in Akwa Ibom State to rig the elections again in favour of the PDP.

However, the call for Mr. Mike Igini, the INEC REC for Akwa Ibom State to be redeployed, remains a clarion call from the Akwa Ibom people.

Why Ikot Ekpene people must reject Governor Udom Emmanuel – Ikot Ekpene Elders Forum

The leadership of Ikot Ekpene Elders forum led by Chief Idongesit Udoh has called on the Ikot Ekpene people to totally reject Deacon Udom Emmanuel on Saturday, the 9th of March, 2019 during the gubernatorial polls.

Speaking to one of our correspondents after an emergency meeting to address some important issues in the Local Government, Chief Idongesit said, “Governor Udom Emmanuel hates the Ikot Ekpene people and be must be rejected totally”.

He pointed out the banning of bikes in Ikot Ekpene as a serious problem Ikot Ekpene leaders have neglected to persist for over a year.

“The PDP Administration is obviously unconcerned about our people. Just look at the Control Post Junction or the Four Point by Sheraton Hotel. Udom is heartless. We are mobilising seriously to vote for Obong Nsima Ekere on the 9th of March, 2019”.

Busted again: Governor Udom Emmanuel and his lies

Deacon Udom Gabriel Emmanuel, the executive Governor of Akwa Ibom state in his usual way had announced to the world that he donated 200 pieces of apple computers to the Akwa Ibom State University (AKSU).

However, findings from our source have shown that Governor Udom Emmanuel was lying as the building and networking of the ICT centre were funded by TETFUND (Tertiary Education Trust Fund), an agency of the federal government of Nigeria.

Report has it that president Buhari had given directives for the release of funds for the project which had been stalled since 2013.

On this premise, our under-performing Governor had to claim this project in a bid to score dubious political points without giving credit to the Federal Government.

Oruk Anam Local Government Indigenes call out Udom for marginalisation

Oruk Anam Local Government Indigenes call out Udom for marginalisation

The people of Oruk Anam Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom state have come out to condemn the insensitive marginalisation carried out on them from a government led by their in-law Deacon Udom Gabriel Emmanuel.

The leaders of Oruk Anam communities have complained that since the inception of Deacon Udom Gabriel Emmanuel’s government, they cannot point out any outstanding project undertaken in their LGA despite his relationship with them as a son in law. The youths have expressed their sore disappointment in the government towards the development of their Local government which is still very rural.

This has resulted in a massive decision by the people to vote for Obong Nsima Ekere on the 9th of March, 2019. Speaking to our correspondent, a relative to Governor Udom’s wife said “The people of Oruk Anam have vowed to dissociate themselves with a disappointing in-law who has treated them shamefully. We will support Obong Nsima Ekere on the 9th of March, 2019.

Udom Emmanuel: the chief vote buyer of our generation

Udom Emmanuel: the chief vote buyer of our generation

Vote buying is a punishable offence in the Nigerian law but it is so disheartening how a man who has been preaching #onlygod is sinking the State’s funds hook line and sinker into a rigorous highly coordinated vote buying exercise.

It has been gathered that the governor had disbursed a million naira to each polling unit for vote buying across various wards and Local Governments during the February 23rd elections.

Please where did Governor Udom Emmanuel get this kind of money from that he could not pay pensioners for over 3 years in office?

It is on record that right from the inception of Deacon Udom’s administration, he has always informed the masses that there was no money.

Where did governor Udom Emmanuel get thirty one (31) billion naira for vote buying excercise in Akwa Ibom State?

Udom is evil
REJECT HIM

Is violence the only option for the PDP?

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 14:10:00 +0100

Is violence the only option for the PDP?

Since his Excellency, Senator Godswill Akpabio left the PDP, most members of the Peoples Democratic Party in Akwa Ibom State have been singing songs of Warsaw saw war when they themselves are the warlords.

Do a deep profiling and find out who most of these top PDP chieftains are, starting from the Speaker of the House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Onofiok Luke who is a renown cultist in Akwa Ibom State.

What of Prince Ukpong Nsima Akpabio?
What of Rt. Hon Nsikak Ekong, the king of Ikalabo boys?
What of Senator Bassey Albert popularly known as OBA?
What of the PDP publicity secretary, Ini Ememobong?

Please do not allow anyone to deceive you about the Warsaw saw war phrase

#Factsyoumustknow

The war phrase started from the PDP who declared after Senator Akpabio’s defection to the APC that it was now a do or die affair for them to survive politically. On this premise, Senator Akpabio made a statement to reply them “If you say it is do or die affair, it means that you have declared war just as Warsaw declared a war on Germany who were at that time the world power.

On that note he said those in PDP calling for war should not forget that “Warsaw saw war and war saw Warsaw”. Which implies that the people of Warsaw who declared war on a world power saw the war they were looking for when they collapsed and surrendered to Germany in September 27, 1939.

As the police keeps parading more PDP thugs, who then is the real Warsaw?

PDP cheap ploy to blackmail Obong Nsima Ekere

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 14:07:00 +0100

PDP cheap ploy to blackmail Obong Nsima Ekere

Before I say anything, I have to remind you of the popular message that says "When a man is desperate, he can do anything".

Let me start by enlightening my dear readers about the video that is currently trending on the social media by some PDP gullible minds about Obong Nsima Ekere and His Excellency Comrade Adams Oshiomhole about importing thugs to Akwa Ibom State.

I wish to categorically state that this news is false and an acted script of the PDP to get public sympathy considering.

Confirming to us, a source from within the PDP camp has told us that Governor Udom Emmanuel, Barr. Emmanuel Enoidem, Engr. Christopher Ekpenyong, Senator Bassey Albert and Engr. Ufott Ebong are the brain behind the drama seen in the video.

According to the source who spoke in anonymity, "Governor Udom paid 50 million for these team of experts liars to arrange armed boys clothed with police gadgets to parade other PDP thugs and take videos just to blackmail the APC".

He said "Saturdays election has made Udom so desperate and he would do anything to remain in power for another four years. What you saw in the video was a plan just to tarnish the image of the APC chieftains"

Do not forget that a few days to the Presidential and National Assembly elections, Engr. Uffot Ebong, a Senior SA to the Governor on Technical Matters and Due Process was caught by the police with over 50 fake police vehicles parked in his house.

Meanwhile the relevant police authorities have been notified of this development to take immediate action.

Does Governor Udom Emmanuel deserve a second term?

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 14:05:00 +0100

Does Governor Udom Emmanuel deserve a second term?

Tell your self the truth, do you think Governor Udom Emmanuel deserve a second term after he refused to pay Primary school retirees their pension since 2015?

Does Governor Udom Emmanuel deserve a second term after he retrieved the appointment letters of 5000 Akwa Ibom teachers employed during the administration of Senator Godswill Akpabio?

Do you think Governor Udom Emmanuel deserves a second term after he disrespected the memories of those who lost their lives at the Reigners bible church on the 10th of December 2016 by setting that day for his reelection rally in 2018?

Does Governor Udom Emmanuel deserve a second term after over 200 parents lost their jobs in Akwa Savings and Loans which closed down under his watch as an experienced banker with over 25 years banking experience?

Does Governor Udom Emmanuel deserve a second term after he could not manage the security crisis that crippled Etim Ekpo and Ukanfun?

Does Governor Udom Emmanuel deserve a second term after he has clearly shown that he does not care about you?

Oh! Senator Godswill Obot Akpabio the Uncommon Leader

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 14:01:00 +0100

Oh! Senator Godswill Obot Akpabio the Uncommon Leader

1. Never in Akpabio's time as a Governor was Akwa Ibom State rated or even mentioned as one of the states with the highest level of unemployment.

2. Never in Senator Akpabio’s time as the Governor were teachers’ salaries unjustly deducted by the State Government for no good reasons.

3. Never in Akpabio’s tenure did civil servants complain of not receiving their promotion arrears.

4. Never in Senator Akpabio’s tenure did we hear that people’s building were demolished by his Commissioner for Works without due compensation.

5. Never in Akpabio’s tenure did we witness massive killings and blood sheds as witnessed in Ikot Ekpene, Etim Ekpo and Ukanafun in the last 3 years.

6. Never in Akpabio’s time as the Governor did we hear that even local banks were relocating from one local government to another because of security concerns.

7. Never in Akpabio’s tenure as a Governor did we hear that the Akwa Ibom State government was being investigated by the EFCC for corruption or money laundering.

Today, the story is not the same for Akwa Ibom people

Though Udom Emmanuel and his media aides are trying very hard to deceive Nigerians to believe that their government has created a lot of jobs for the people of Akwa Ibom State, facts from the National Bureau of Statistics reveal that Akwa Ibom State is ranked the number 2 State with the highest level of unemployment in Nigeria.

It is also a confirmed fact that Udom Emmanuel’s administration has taken joy in deducting the salaries of school teachers for no good reasons. Is this not wickedness? I shall leave you to be the judge. If you need prove, visit any public school and ask a teacher.

It is only in Udom’s administration that people’s houses are demolished and due compensations are not given before the demolition. Do not forget too soon that a few months ago; Mr. Ephraim Inyangeyen who doubles as Udom’s commissioner for Works and evil executioner was caught on camera bulldozing the home of a widow at Etinan, without paying compensation. The videos are all over the social media if you care to see: https://web.facebook.com/michael.ekpo/videos/10216810087621176/.

Udom’s inability to tackle security issues in Akwa Ibom State is no longer a hidden gist. Never in the history of Akwa Ibom have we witnessed such killings and bloodshed in Ikot Ekpene, Etim Ekpo and Ukanafun. If, we have a governor who is incapable of handling security issues in just 3 local governments within 3 years, how can he handle security concerns in the 31 LGA’s of Akwa Ibom State? Don't we derserve a more capable hand?

It is a shame that as a result of the crisis at Etim Ekpo and Ukanafun 2 banks had to shut down operations. Bank of Industry, Ikot Akpa Nkuk, relocated to Ikot Ekpene while Prudent Co-operative Micro-finance bank closed up throwing 26 staff back to the overcrowded labour market. All this happened because of Udom Emmanuel.

It is only in Udom’s tenure that the EFCC has marked the Akwa Ibom State government for investigation as a result of the illegal redrawal of 6.5 billion Naira; that we do not know what he is using it for. http://thenationonlineng.net/efcc-probes-akwa-ibom-over-wi…/.

For how long will you continue to suffer in the hands of an insensitive leader called Udom Emmanuel?

Let your PVC speak for you on the 9th of March, 2019

Vote for Obong Nsima Ekere

Vote APC

Pause for a while and think

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 13:57:00 +0100

Think of where Senator Akpabio’s administration took us and how fast Governor Udom's administration has brought us down. Today, we have been rated as one of the states with the highest level of unemployment even when Udom and his media aides are celebrating toothpick and plastic cup industry.

Think of the number of people that have lost their jobs in Etim Ekpo and Ukanafun. Think of parents who need to send their children to school and are out of job from the closure of the Akwa Savings and loans.

Think of those who lost their loved ones because of Udom’s inability to handle security issues in just 2 Local Government Area in the state.

Don’t you think that Akwa Ibom deserves the best?

Don’t you think that Udom needs to be voted out?

Don’t you think that Akwa Ibom Deserves Obong Nsima Ekere in 2019?

Buses of PDP Thugs accosted in Obot Akara by the Ikot Ekpene Police Area Command

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 13:54:00 +0100

Buses of PDP Thugs accosted in Obot Akara by the Ikot Ekpene Police Area Command

The PDP and its leadership are bent on re-election of their flag bearer Udom Gabriel Emmanuel come Saturday 9th of March 2019. The extent of their desperation is however worrisome, considering their new found love for thuggery and violence even while they parade themselves as a peace seeking party in the state.

Yesterday 5th march, 2019, buses of thugs from diaspora were imported into the state and while en route to Akwa-Ibom state to perpetuate mayhem, they were ceased by the police men who were on duty by Obot Akara Local government along the federal road linking Abia state with Akwa Ibom.

Our sources have it that calls came in swiftly from top official of the state government to the squad leader of the police men at the scene soon after the information was spreading like wild fire. But the police team leader whose name is withheld for security reasons deliberately put off his mobile phone to avoid any interference from the government.

We know the commissioner of police in Akwa Ibom state to be intolerant to hoodlums and thugs who have been at large in the state under the covering of their political paymaster in the government and strongly believe that these violent thirsty thugs will face the full wrath of the law in no distant time.

PDP thugs attack Nsima Ekere's Campaign Ground

noreply@blogger.com (busitechnews) — Wed, 6 Mar 2019 13:50:00 +0100

PDP thugs attack Nsima Ekere's Campaign Ground

Barley less than four days to the gubernatorial elections in Akwa Ibom State, a significant number of thugs invade the campaign ground of Obong Nsima Ekere, shooting sporadically at the innocent electorates on Tuesday the 5th of March, 2019.

Confirming the incident to our reporters, a live witness who narrated the story said,

"This evening, while the retraining of APC polling agents for next Saturday’s Governorship election was ongoing at the APC Campaign Office, an improvised explosive device was thrown into the compound by unknown persons from across the street. Almost at the same time, security personnel at the venue reported that a dark-coloured Toyota Camry pulled up and a gun-wielding male stepped out and fired sporadically into the air before getting back into the vehicle when spotted by some locals as a popular PDP thug".

Confirming if any casualties were witnessed, our source said no one was killed but many people were injured as a result of running for safety.

Recall that a day to the earlier cancelled presidential election, more than 400 PDP thugs were caught by security operatives in a hotel belonging to a PDP chieftain. In a similar manner, some PDP thugs imported from Warri and Port Harcout by Engr. Christopher Ekpenyong the Senatorial Candidate of the PDP and Hon. Idongesit Ntekpere were also caught by security operates in Obot Akara for causing violence.

The PDP family are ready for war during the gubernatorial elections from all indications according to an APC chieftain. He said "APC is a peaceful party and we call on relevant security agencies to apprehend these culprits and let them face the law”

The PDP as a party is filled with a plethora of hoodlums and well known cultists from the National assembly to local government and villages /clans. Yet their flag bearer who is a deacon in the church works hand in hand with them to carry out his dirty assignments and turns back to drag some unsuspecting churches and her members into propaganda of peace and unity even when he has countlessly proven himself to be a bigot.

The movement of these hoodlums in the party had been long made public by the numerous cars burnt and people killed on the earlier scheduled presidential election date even after the election had been postponed by INEC in Obot Akara, the home of Engr. Christopher Ekpenyong their party senatorial candidate whom they have seemingly rigged in to the senate.

Information has it that HE Udom Gabriel Emmanuel goes around enticing some church leaders with fat envelops to canvass for his re-election, realising the extent of failure his government has recorded for the past 3 years.

Those top church leaders have manipulated some worshipper to suddenly forget that Akwa Ibom state once had her future leaders going to school without having to pay school fees. Insinuating that bringing in a new governor from another party who is a also a christian and known for his deep passion for the people is a call for war and is seriously gibberish.

Akwa Ibom citizens know what they want and what Udom Emmanuel has been doing. They have promised to make their opinion known at the polls. The Christians in Akwa Ibom are aware that cultism has not and will never be part and parcel of the church system and will put an end to his #ONLYGOD hypocrisy.

Akwa Ibom Needs APC Ernestly

Akwa Ibom Needs APC Ernestly

The extent to which the federal government has taken interest in the completion of federal roads and other projects around Akwa Ibom and her environs is worth commending, particularly for its effect and contribution to the the smooth movement of economic activities for the common man in the state.

The Aba – Ikot Ekpene federal road which has been a dead trap and also a very significant route affecting to a high degree the tempo of economic activities within Akwa Ibom State has been awarded for construction alongside the Calabar-Itu high way which has been a dead trap for decades.

The dualization of these roads mean a lot to the people of the state, especially the common man and traders in Ikot Ekpene and Uyo markets who are buying materials for trading from Aba and those running businesses with their supply chain in the east.

The Ibakka Sea port project, a federal project which had been suffering from a less than required attention from the federal government and ALSCON both situated in the state are now under the federal spotlight.

What will it profit us as a people to play opposition or stand aloof at a time where it is obviously Akwa Iboms’ time to stamp her footprint in the nation’s sand and we cannot miss this for posterity and for our sake.

The dark side of Mike igini’s Innocence

The dark side of Mike igini’s Innocence

Mike Igini, the Akwa Ibom Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), had denied manipulating the Presidential and National Assembly election results in the state as conveyed during his interview with the news agency of Nigeria (NAN) in uyo.

He said the allegation was not true and that the election was not manipulated.

Mr Igini debunked that elections were won and lost at the polling units, saying the REC cannot be at the polling units from the beginning to the close of the polls considering the 2,980 polling units in the state.

Remarkably, according to him, he was not in any of those polling units from the opening to the close of the polls.

Information circulating in public which is very cogent and apt has it that the PDP had rigged the elections heavily and very successfully even in the LGA of the embattled Sen. Akpabio.

Is Mr. Igini taking a position that since he was not present at the different polling units in the state he should not be held accountable for the activities of the other RECs at LGAs and units working with and under him?

How does he explain the original electoral materials finding its way into the hands of the PDP members in the first place and the recourse of the materials back to the INEC officials in charge of the Local government for collation?

Also, considering that we are talking about a Local Government that is an APC strong hold. If this level of laxity and compromise can be perpetuated by the INEC officials working under him in a place like Ukana, the home town of Senator Akpabio we can only imagine what had transpired in the other local governments which are actually strong holds for the PDP candidates.

Mr. Igini’s claim of innocence is unacceptable and he cannot be vindicated from being the biased electoral umpire that he is on the guise of his inability to be at every polling unit. It is a clear show of irresponsibility and collusion and many Akwa Ibom sons and daughters are aware of this, despite his pseudo-integrity appeal.
