On his facebook page, Nsima Ekere still bears the title ‘deputy governor’


By Nse Peter

Six months after Obong Nsima Ekere resigned from office under controversial circumstances, he stills adorn himself with the title of ‘deputy governor’, Akwa Ibom State. His facebook page says so, at least.

The former deputy governor has 4,532 friends and 1,532 followers as at the time THINK AKWA IBOM! checked his facebook page on Tuesday, 12 March, 2013 at about 6.30pm.

On 19 February this year, four months after Nsima Ekere’s resignation as deputy governor of Akwa Ibom State, Mr. Etim Sam, the publisher/editor-in-chief of The Impact newspaper who appears to be in sympathy with the former deputy governor posted on Ekere’s facebook wall “Your Excellency, remove the status of Deputy Governor from your post, we are seeing a greater you in 2015, your long silence will not help matters in this regards, make your position known to us to take a stand”.

There is no indication, however, to show that the former deputy governor responded to Etim Sam’s post.

Ekere ‘liked’ his former boss, Governor Godswill on facebook as being among ‘inspirational people’.
