Police Arrest A’ibom LG Boss Over APC Chief Murder by udyheart01(m): 6:21pm On Mar 21, 2015 |
The Akwa Ibom State Police command has arrested the Vice-Chairman of Ukanafun Local Government Area, Mr. Effiom Abai, following the killing of the All Progressives Congress candidate for Ukanafun State Constituency, Mr. Okon Uwah. Uwah was a former Deputy Speaker of the state House of Assembly between 2007 and 2011 and Chairman of Ukanafun Local Government Area between 2005 and 2007. Abai, who is the youth leader in Nkek, the community where Uwah was killed, was said to have been arrested in Uyo by a police team led by the state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Gabriel Achong. A security source told our correspondent that Abai had been assisting the police in their investigation. Uwah was on Wednesday attacked by thugs at Nkek village when he was on a house-to-house campaign tour. Meanwhile, the APC blamed Uwah’s murder on alleged PDP inciting statement. The Deputy Director General and Legal Consultant of the APC state governorship campaign organisation, Mr. Effiong Okwong, alleged in Uyo on Thursday that some PDP chieftains had said that they would not tolerate opposition party in Akwa Ibom State. The state Commissioner for Information and Communications, Mr. Aniekan Umanah, warned against politicising Uwah’s killing. Copyright PUNCH.All rights reserved.

Don't been mince words. Akpabio had said so on so many occasions. Opposition in Akwa Ibom state is just a kiss of death: the fastest way to die. |

The day I read in the papers that Uwah was stampeded to death when sharing money in a campaign rally was the day I understand the extent of which the media can mislead and deliberately undermine the truth. |

kahal29: Someone was claiming that he read in the news that the man died in a stampede. An apparently unsupported claim. #change #GMB #APC |

Change2015:You dont need to go far, the two versions of the stories were on the frontpage of nairaland. First by Punch, KILLED : https://www.nairaland.com/2203856/apc-house-assembly-candidate-killed Then this twisted cover story, SLUMPED : https://www.nairaland.com/2205647/hon-okon-uwah-slumps-dies 1 Like |

ITbomb: The story in thecallng.com is very shoddy. Was there a stampede at his relatives residence? It does not appear as credible as the punch write up and I guess the police have better information that is the basis of their arrest. We shall keep watch to see how this develops. #change #GMB #APC |
