| Akpabio.... Couldn't stop Umana |
By Nse Peter
What we all know about the APC’s governorship primary that
took place yesterday in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State is that Umana Okon Umana defeated
former senator, John Akpan Udoedehe to emerge the governorship candidate of the
party, but what many did not know is that Governor Godswill Akpabio who is of
the ruling PDP played less than noble role in the just concluded primary.
Godswill Akpabio, in an attempt to stop his estranged
political associate and former Secretary to the Akwa Ibom State Government
(SSG), Mr. Umana Okon Umana, from picking the APC’s governorship ticket, is
alleged to have bankrolled John Akpan Udoedehe’s political machinery with a
whopping N500 million. The money, said to have been delivered very early in the
morning at Udoedehe’s house on the day of the primary by a former commissioner
in Akpabio’s cabinet, was meant to be used for the ‘settlement’ of party
delegates.
A week to the primary, Akpabio had sponsored fake news item
in some local tabloid that the national leadership of APC had asked Umana not
to contest for the governorship ticket anymore, but should rather go for the
senate ticket.
More so, Akpabio through one of his special assistants
brought in some 1, 700 youths from Ikot Ekpene local government areas to fake their
way into the Uyo Township Stadium as if they were delegates to the APC
governorship primary.
Think Akwa Ibom!
gathered that when the fake delegates couldn’t successfully pass through screening
at the gate of the Uyo Township Stadium, and when every other antics of Akpabio
failed, the governor persuaded Udoedehe to go violent and disrupt voting.
The disruption happened as thugs suddenly emerged out of the
dark to cart away ballot boxes, while armed policemen and other security
officials looked on helplessly as though nothing had happened. But that did not stop the officials from
going ahead with the election.
At the end of the election, Umana Okon Umana had 2,444 votes
against John Akpan Udoedehe’s 6.
I dey laugh ooooooo. 2015 magic.
ReplyDeleteWho will be flying the Jet after the elections bro Goddy or who? Looks like he is not ready to buy a personal jet so we will be seeing him on Arik /Aero to Abuja LoooooooL
ReplyDeleteOf most blogs that i have seen,this blog is the most primordially ridiculous!!!
ReplyDeleteThink Akwa-Ibom and lies. na wha oh, where do you people get your false information from by the way?
ReplyDeleteI am laughing with a straight face. Like seriously, Akpabio isnt that desperate or ignorant to fake things for someoneelse. By the way, how can a whole 1700 people rush to d gate and they were refused to let in, there were thugs,finally he came out with 6 votes. The story just doesn't flow well I must say.
ReplyDeleteGosh! I need a cold drink. Never thought reading a fake ass story like this can be draining. Thinkakwaibom is thinking shallow.
ReplyDeletesomething dosen't add up here. so you're telling me that if really, we had 1,700 thugs, at least 30 of them wouldn't get in?, that's logic by the way.
ReplyDeleteNow to the real matter at hand, Gov Akpabio does not associate with thuggery if his opponent was victorious, then yes it means there is indeed fairness in the elections, contrary to what most of you journalist keep publishing.
Gov Akpabio isn't a desperate man like the way you are trying to paint him here. if anything, the victory of Ummana sounds suspicious 2,444 against 6? come on even if his opponent doesn't even have family members, you're telling me just six people voted for him?
ReplyDeleteSo in other words you are celebrating that your candidate has won abi?, what has Gov Akpabio got to do with the outcome of the elections in the first place? you guys would cease the slightest opportunity to spoil the mans name kwa. don't you have a life?
ReplyDeleteSource! Source! Source! At least even if you want to pull out such outlandish claims from your back side, have the decency to lie that sources close to so and so gave you the gist. You must have this blog ready made for fools, so i better make my way out quietly.
ReplyDeleteLMAO!!! Think akwa ibom, I laugh this una news o. Are you people not sure you will go into script writting for nollywood? See conspiracy theory abeg. Chai!!
ReplyDeleteThink Akwaibom indeed! See story abeg. This story get better K leg. Akpabio wey no get una time, una go just dey spread malicious lies so that e go give una face. Please go get better news. Akpabio is too busy doing great things.
ReplyDeleteWhen would you all dedicate a whole article to writing about the uncommon transformation in Akwaibom state? Yet you say you think Akwaibom. Everyday you people come up with all sorts to tarnish the image of the amiable Governor Godswill Akpabio. Akpabio is in a league that no one can come close. Look at Akwaibom for goodness sake, have y'all ever witnessed the kind of transformation it has undergone? Please stop all the bitterness.
ReplyDeleteWhat is this article about? You people want us to believe that all this happened? Naso!
