Embattled former Governor of Akwa Ibom State,
Chief Godswill Akpabio yesterday gave his
successor the most heart breaking news – he
won’t be returning to Nigeria soon following the
raid of the presidential lodge he (Akpabio)
stayed where stockpile of arms and dollar notes
were discovered in a surprise raid by a special
squad of the Department of State Security.
The incidence which took the State government
and Akpabio by surprise has led to the federal
government listing the fugitive Governor on the
watch list by both foreign and Nigerian security
forces. Akpabio, investigation reveals got wind
of a covert move to get him arrested on his
arrival from London where he claims he went to
receive medical treatment after surviving a
mysterious and controversial car accident in
Abuja and fled to America over the weekend.
Impeccable sources say Akpabio called his
successor (Udom Emmanuel) on Sunday
evening after the church service to mark Udom
Emmanuel’s 100 days in office and informed the
Governor that with the dilemma he has found
himself, it is practically impossible to return to
the country.
“The Governor was not himself Sunday night
moments after Akpabio called him on phone to
inform him that he won’t be returning to the
country till sometime in December. The news
not only devastated the Governor but has made
him look more vulnerable than ever. We had
expected Akpabio back this week but from the
look of things, things have gone bad for both
Akpabio and Udom”, said a close source to the
Akwa Ibom state Governor.
Akpabio who was expected to return to the
country to defend his election currently before
the tribunal in ABUJA might also have tactically
given up on the case.
Though he opened his defence last Wednesday,
he seems to have lost hope after the National
Secretary of the PDP and the Chairman of the
Akwa Ibom State PDP Electoral Panel told the
court that the party had no candidate for the
disputed Akwa Ibom North West Senatorial seat.
Unconfirmed reports say he allegedly flee
London to the US over the weekend. But his
chances of escaping seems remote if the
federal government decides to seek his
extradition back to the country.
Already, the Department of Homeland Security
has placed his family members and relatives on
the watch list. There are strong indication that
the government may freeze all bank accounts of
the embattled Governor. A circular to that
effect is being prepared by the relevant
agencies.
This informed the decision of Akpabio to be
keeping money in cash in houses and bunkers
than lodge them in banks.
Meanwhile Akpabio has started putting for sale
some properties he allegedly acquired with
public funds. But most prospective buyers have
avoided buying the properties because of the
likely political repercussions the likely probe
may have on such transaction.

"Do you want to go to jail?"

- Godswill Akpabio, 2015


From the above statements credited to Akpabio before the presidential election, it is evident that he is a man who has been running from his shadow.

Godswill Akpabio cannot deny his destiny. Prison is Godswill for Akpabio.

Things are getting interesting if true, the long arm of justice is slowing but surly catching on corrupt politicians.
