Akpabio’s Credit Card Declined At London Hotel - Sahara Reporters by hayorzzyzx(m): 6:42pm On Sep 16, 2015
Former Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom
State, who is a current Nigerian senator, today
faced serious embarrassment at Mandarin
Oriental Hotel, a luxury five-star hotel in the
Knightsbridge area of London. Mr. Akpabio’s credit
card was declined as the ex-governor tried to check
in.

Mr. Akpabio had been in London to receive medical
treatment after his car bullet proof G-Wagon
Mercedes Benz collided with an American Embassy
diplomatic vehicle in Abuja. The accident had
occurred after Mr. Akpabio’s driver reportedly failed to stop at a traffic light.

At the reception of Mandarin Hotel, a flustered
Senator Akpabio, who wore a blue sports jacket, was visibly embarrassed on being told that his credit card had been denied. Two unidentified persons were with the former governor at the reception desk as he looked worried and flummoxed about the credit card predicament.

In the thick of the fiasco, the former governor was
heard barking orders at an official at Eco Bank in
Lagos. He persistently asked why his card was not
working.

Mr. Akpabio remained at the reception for a while,
apparently at the insistence of the hotel’s
management, who later checked him in.
Mr. Akpabio, who as governor claimed that he had
built a multi-million dollar “world class” hospital in
Uyo, the capital of Akwa Ibom, chose to be flown to
the UK for treatment after his accident.
When SaharaReporters reached the former
governor, he admitted that his card was declined
because he had used the card to check out of the
Four Seasons luxury hotel earlier today. Akpabio
stated that his credit card had maxed out of its daily
spending limit.

Akpabio also told SaharaReporters when asked why
he didn't check into the "World Class" clinic he built
in his home state for treatment, he denied
accusations that he had neglected to equip the so-
called top-tier hospital in Akwa Ibom. The former
governor claimed he had not rented equipment that
were shown to the media during the official unveiling of the hospital, adding that the delay in opening the hospital was due to Immigration processing relating to the doctors to be brought to work at the hospital .

Mr. Akpabio has emerged as the leader of the
Peoples Democratic Party in the National Assembly.

Sai Buhari

1.Don't worry GEJ has boarded a flight ...he is coming to bail him.

2. He had maxed his daily withdrawal which is $1,000,000 as per his bank.

3. Doctor advised him to lodge in a five star hotel to recoup quickly.

4. He stood flummoxed shocked

5. Hope he is aware that his diplomatic passport has been blocked as well. We have a new immigration chief who has changed his sim card.

That guy called Akpabio is an embarrassment to himself jare. He didn't have knowledge of the products of the card he is using?

It is an unlearned fellow that does not know what he has and to what limit it can be used...
