The All Progressives Congress governorship candidate
in Akwa Ibom State, Umana Okon Umana has
dismissed the rumour making the rounds that Senator John Udoedehe collected
money from him to withdraw from the governorship race in the state.
Mr. Umana in a release signed by the director, Media
& Publicity, APC Governorship Campaign Organisation in the State, Mr. Iboro
Otongaran, said he was aware of the rumour and that it was not true.
“Umana rejects any claim that he gave Senator
Udoedehe money for any political favour before, during or after the race for
the party’s (governorship) ticket in the 2015 elections,” the release stated,
while advising members of the public to disregard the rumour.
The APC governorship candidate said the rumour was
originated
and peddled by detractors who are scared of the rising popularity of
the APC and his candidacy in the state and are therefore bent on creating a
rift between him and the senator, and advised those behind it to stop forthwith.
