He calls himself the uncommon transformer. His loyalists call him Ete or Obongowo. They worship him. He likes to be worshipped for sure.

He goes around donating and frittering away state resources to “outsiders” leaving his own people to wallow in penury and hunger. He prefers to award contracts no matter how small to non indigenes even when they have no capacity to execute the jobs satisfactorily. A case in point is the various road signs in Uyo that have “Igbonized” some native Akwa Ibom names; thus one finds “Ikot Udo Uzo” instead of Ikot Udo Uso. Another feature of the road signs is that you are told that you are heading to Uyo town when in fact you are heading towards Oron. The blunders are repeated as the signs announce that you are going to Oron when you are actually coming into Uyo from Oron.

The reason for the above would be assumed to be that Gov Akpabio found no Akwa Ibomite “capable” of producing road signs so the contract had to be awarded to a non indigene. It will therefore not be surprising if the state government goes ahead to gazette these roads as they appear on these road signs.
Akpabio has a phobia for a particular ethnic group in his state even when the people embraced him whole heartedly. He behaves like an emperor superintending a conquered territory. His view of transformation is stealing and looting with members of his family as conduit pipes.
