Mr. Don Etim, former commissioner for works, Akwa Ibom State |
By Nse Peter
For failing to make a come-back to the Akwa Ibom State
Executive Council, the immediate past commissioner for works, Mr. Don Etim has
been compensated with the chairmanship position of the newly constituted Ikot
Ekpene Local Government Transition Committee.
Etim who was beaten by Mr. Etido Inyang in a keenly
contested race for commissioner in the State Executive Council, was asked by
the immediate past governor, Chief Godswill Akpabio to nominate someone for the
chairmanship position, Ikot Ekpene Local Government Transition Committee. He
quickly nominated his nephew, Mr. Unyime Etim who had served him as his
personal assistant while he (Don) was the commissioner for works.
Inyang is the commissioner for special duties. During
Akpabio’s administration he was the governor’s special assistant on technical
matters.
Meanwhile, in a related development, the University of Uyo
law lecturer, Mr. Ekokoi Solomon who unsuccessfully contested the PDP primaries
against the Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly member, Mr. Onofiok Luke (Nsit
Ubium State Constituency) has also been compensated for his loss at the
primaries. He is now a supervisor in the newly inaugurated Nsit Ubium Local
Government Transition Committee.
Mr. Unyime Etim, Chairman, Ikot Ekpene Local Govt Transition Committee |
