Akpabio you cannot control a sitting Governor. Respect yourself and let the man run his term, you had 8 long years during which you taught your predecessor Obong Attah the same lesson you are about to learn afresh. The man you call your godson is now bigger than you by virtue of the position he occupies, you represent one out of three constituencies, he governs all three. Respect yourself or you may get burnt.

The Former Governor of Akwa Ibom state and the Senate Minority Leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio, in a meeting held on Monday to review the ongoing onslaught against him by his Successor told his Annang cabal that the greatest mistake he has made in his life was to have made Udom Emmanuel his successor in 2015 against all odds and warnings by some well meaning people within and outside the state.

“I regretted that I am being mocked by those I bulldozed in the build up to the 2015 polls to make Udom Emmanuel my Successor” he said
He vowed to take Udom pound of flesh at the 2019 polls. He told his Annang brothers that, “sacking Sir Etekamba Umoren as the SSG, Governor Udom has crossed the red line and has dared me”.

Attendees of the meeting blamed the former Governor for not hearkening to the voice of reason in the choice of his successor and regretted that the government has been hijacked by those who never contributed anything to its emergence while those that staked so much to ensure the success of 2015 agenda were pushed out of the government simply because they are identified as Akpabio boys.

The meeting expressed shock that the governor could sponsor, direct and encourage people to launch media attacks on his person.
Those who attended the meeting were carefully selected and they reaffirmed their support for their leader and resolved to follow him wherever he would lead them in 2019

this is a recurring decimal in Nigerian politics. Outgoing governor anoints a candidate to take over him. Candidate plays loyal until he realises he is his own man and can call the shots on his own.

The man currently on seat usually wins this one...

Mention any single Governor from 1999 till date that didnt had problem with his anointed successor.Just mention any single one that both the predecessor and the successor are in good term.This how Nigeria Politician operates.Once you had been a governor and completed your tenure,why cant you hands off and allow the one you put them to operate freely.

And who did Akpabio fill up the state government positions and boards with? He did his time and Favoured his people....he cannot still control another zones turn. What did Akpabio do in Eket Senatorial district where all the allocation money came from?

Selfish governor that will never learn.

You keep imposing candidates on people instead of allowing internal Democracy

The same way Victor Attah regrets making you Governor.

T.A orji / orji Uzor

Nnamani/ Sullivan Chime

Peter Obi/ Obiano

Ganduje / Kwakwanso

Tinubu / Fashola

Martin Elechi / Umahi

The list goes on...

It's high time u understood that rulers are chosen by God.
Of course, leaders like Donald Trump, Buhari, Saddam Husein, Gaddafi, Hitler, Stalin and even our own underperforming and corrupt leaders etc are "chosen" by God, perhaps to punish the citizens for reasons best known to Him. Think again!

If he is a good leader,he should have known where to cut the boundary ...you finished your tenure & nobody dictated to you now you want to turn yourself to a demigod ..If you joke with power,it will burn you fast & reduce you to nothing..he who carries power carries gun so to say..never mess up with him.

They give them 8yrs to rule a state then they turn around claiming that the Government house is an extension of their Private Estate.
Stupid Bingo. Did Victor Attah determine who occupy which seat during your eight years stay as Governor.

That is the problem in this country. Is not about service to the people, it's all about removing the SSG which is your puppet. When shall we have leaders in this country whose total concern and problem is all about how to give dividends of democracy and improve life of the people as their priority? I don't expect this from a person of high pedigree like Akpabio if it's true.

These politicians push their luck too far most of the time,I don't understand y someone by virtue of just being a godfather thinks it would be easy for him to control a sitting governor,they are control freaks and only do so for their selfish interests not because they love or mean well for the masses.A sitting governor's 'power' is too enormous for anyone to want to contend with,Akpabio has been outfoxed if he truly means what he said because politicians re a deceitful lot and u can only trust them at ur own peril,he should lick his wounds and see it as a lesson learnt after all he did same to Attah.

Worse still in power play is when a so called godfather wants to control a sitting president that has all the paraphernalia of power attached to the position at his beck and call,it's virtually an impossible mission for the godfather..

"I regret Making Udom Governor"... This single line alone proves that there is no democracy in Nigeria. Imagine a former governor making such a treasonable claim, thus proving that the electorates wasted their time in going to the polls.
