The rally in Uyo today by Udom Emmanuel, former secretary to
Akwa Ibom State government, to signal his declaration of intent to contest the
governorship primary of the Peoples Democratic Party has snowballed into a
bloody riot. As we report, the riot, staged by rented crowds hired to give the
declaration a semblance of significance, is spreading along Nsikak Eduok Avenue
axis of the city where Udom’s campaign office is located.
