Akpabio Says Emmanuel Must Be Taken Out Of Power In 2019

Godswill Akpabio, former Senate Minority Leader, has revealed that he regrets imposing Udom Emmanuel, the Akwa Ibom State Governor, on the people of the state.

While Apologising before a crowd at Ikot Ekpene Plaza, after returning from his mother-in-law’s burial at Enugu on Sunday, he stated that Emmanuel was the greatest mistake he made in a hurry and used the opportunity to ask for the peoples forgiveness.

The Senator, who is representing the Akwa Ibom North West senatorial district noted that the Governor “is a mistake that must be corrected in 2019.”

Udom (Emmanuel) is a mistake that must be corrected in 2019. All hands must be on deck to ensure that the mistake is corrected for a people-oriented leadership under the ruling All Progressives Congress at the centre.”

According to him, “Emmanuel’s administration has failed the people,” forcing him to take decisive actions to correct the anomaly for posterity to be fair on him.

He noted that there has been hunger and deprivation in the state since Emmanuel administration assumed power, adding that it was time to liberate the state from the shackles of bad governance.
