Governor Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State has rejected the title of Acting Governor, saying that he’s still the number one citizen of the state.
Udom said it is misleading for people to address him as acting governor as a result of the nullification of election in 18 out of the 31 local government areas by the Election Petitions Tribunal

A statement by the state Commissioner for Information and Communication, Mr. Aniekan Umanah yesterday, said: “It is unfortunate that a section of the media are unaware of the salient provisions of the 1999 Constitution regarding election and inauguration of governor of a state, talk-less of the 2011 Electoral Act.

Umanah recalled that the Akwa Ibom Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal, which sat in Abuja directed Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct a rerun election in 18 local government areas of the state within 90 days.

“This does not mean that the office of the governor is vacant, as the tribunal also confirmed Emmanuel as governor,” he continued.

“The Electoral Act specifically provides that in a situation such as we have now, the governor remains in office until he exhausts all appeal windows available to him.

“The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that sponsored the governor has indicated its intention to appeal the judgment of the tribunal. While the case runs its course, the governor remains in office, contrary to the falsehood by a segment of the press, serving the interest of the opposition,” the commissioner added.

still In charge

That should be the least of his worries.

The opposition can't wait to seize power but they should wait for 90 days to do that..

Udom will still win. Umana is the worst human alive.
Udom is not a saint but he is 100% better than the heartless Umana.

But you're the Acting Governor or rather IT Governor??

you harsh o!

This is comical. Then how do you expect them to address a governor that won 10 out of 32 LGAs !!!

Udom is the acting governor, yes! He doesn't qualify as the governor constitutionally.

Check what it means to be governor from the consitution and then access Udom whether he qualifies!

Even if you are a tout must you expose yourself here?
