A Look At The Latest APC Decampees In Akwa Ibom by Farnsworth: 11:33am On Jan 09, 2016
Before they deceive you ask the following questions:

Let us look at the political arrangement in Akwa Ibom State and why Mr. Udom Gabriel Emmanuel was elected the governor of the state
1. Akwa Ibom State as we all know is made up of 3 senatorial districts namely; Uyo, Ikot Ekpene and Eket Senatorial District.
2. Uyo and Ikot Ekpene have had their turn through His Excellency Arch Obong Victor Bassey Attah who served for 8 years and His Excellency Sen. Godswill Obot Akpabio who also served 8 years. They both contributed to the development of the state.
3. Eket Senatorial District did support both Uyo and Ikot Ekpene Senatorial Districts throughout their 16 years in power.
4. Eket Senatorial District contributes 90% of the resources used in the development of the state without benefitting much in terms of infrastructures.

The Selfish politicians in the state who are leaving the ruling party in the state (PDP) to opposition party (APC) because others are given opportunity to contribute their own quota to the development of the state.
We bring to you the various positions they’ve held while they were in PDP and their contribution(s).

1. Senator Ita Enang:
Positions
(i) Councilor -1987
(ii) State House of Assembly – 1992
(iii) House of Representatives – 1999-2011.
(iv) North East Senatorial District of Akwa Ibom State – 2011 – 2015
This is the same man that Senator Godswill Akpabio stood his ground and make sure he became a Senator in 2011, but as now turn against Akpabio and PDP simply because his brother from another mother was nominated and elected by his party (the PDP) to represent the people of Uyo Senatorial District. He has been in elective positive since 1992 to 2015. Let others contribute to the development of the state please.

2. Senator Aloysius Etok
Position
1. House of Representatives – 1992 – 1993
2. Senator – 2011 – 2015
This is a man that was always sleeping at the Senate Chambers through his tenure as Senator representing Akwa Ibom North East. His impact was not seen throughout his 4 year-tenure. He was unable to attract meaningful project to his ward not to talk of the state. His grievance is that His Excellency Chief Dr Godswill Akpabio was freely nominated by his party (the PDP) to represent them since they did not benefit from Senator Aloysius representation.

Ignatius Kelvin Edet
Position
1. Speaker of the House Assembly
2. Chairman Akwa Ibom State Caucus
3. State Chairman PDP
4. Commissioner
5. Chairman Uyo Capital City Development Authority
This is one man who was and is still power drunk till today. Remember him! He was impeached as the Speaker because he was having issues with members of the state assembly because of his selfish interest.
His grievance is that his former aide was given opportunity to serve as the current transition chairman of his local government area (Ibiono Ibom). He is always full of himself.

Eseme Eyibio
House of Representatives 2007 – 2011
He was a good orator during his time at the Lower Chamber of the national assembly, but did not empower his people and did not attract federal government presence to the state. He is a fair weather politician.

Ekpeowo Ekpo
Chairman Ibesikpo Asutan Local Government Area 2011 – 2015
He was nominated and elected on the platform of the PDP to oversee the affairs of Ibesikpo Asutan not because he was the best among other contenders or that the previous chairman that was there before him was not performing, but justice, fairness and justice, he was given the opportunity.
The only time he did his empowerment programme was when the legislative arm of the council wanted to impeached him because of cross misconduct and abuse of office. He did this to earn the sympathy of the unsuspecting public. Of course he was served by the intervention of Honourable Uwem Ita Etuk, the political leader of the area.
His grievance is that his brother from other mother was given the opportunity to chair the transition committee. Note: Transition Committee last for 3 month but can be extended by the state house to last for 6 months. Is this something that somebody who had serve for 3 years should be angry about and decamp to opposition party in the state?

To be continued…
