Renowned Communications Arts lecturer, Prof. Des Wilson has
advised the Peoples Democratic Party governorship candidate in Akwa Ibom State,
Mr. Udom Emmanuel to distance himself from Governor Godswill Akpabio.
Wilson who is from the same Eket Federal Constituency with
Udom Emmanuel and teaches in the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, said on
Saturday in a message he posted on Ibom Forum, an Internet discussion group, “If
our brother Udom does not wish to be seen as guilty by association he must
distance himself from King Akpabio who has ruined the state's economy in the
past seven years.”
He said it is left for Akwa Ibom people to forgive Akpabio
if the governor is humble enough to apologise for what he has done against the
state and the people. “May God grant Akpabio the humility to indeed make peace
with his people whom he has sourly wronged. I wish him well in his sincere exit
activities.”
On the news of the adoption of Udom Emmanuel by persons who
claimed to be elders of Uyo Senatorial District, Des Wilson said, “How many of
the adopters will go out there and vote for the adopted? All these are self
seeking efforts.”
Wilson made headline news recently when he came out publicly
to denied ever endorsing the PDP governorship aspirant in the state.
