SENATOR AKPABIO: THE BURDEN OF AN ENSLAVING BEGGAR


By Umani Uwemedimo

It was on Monday this week, that Southern Governors converged to address the kangaroo vogue of politicking played on the South prior to the Petroleum Industry Bill as proposed by the National Assembly, among other concerns of eminent prominence.

Their demands which vehemently and unequivocally excogitate the interest of their people did not only proffer resolutions to their plights, but had also set a path that all in the zone should conform. This, Senator Akpabio has derailed on, proving himself once again as the JUDAS within.

Just as the Southern Governors, Christ our savior and mediator had through his teachings instituted the right path every christians should follow. With signs and wonders, he demonstrated the power of righteousness presenting before all the need to follow his teachings and doctrines of the Holy Ghost. But Judas, his most beloved disciple having centred his spirit and soul on self-aggrandizement/firm, sought for means his personal quests could be attained. The only opportunity which played out was to betray Christ for 30 pieces of silver: an act which is tantamount to betraying the entire Christian faith. Just like Judas, Godswill Akpabio has betrayed millions of people from the South for a beggar's peanut.

Shortly after the Southern Governors' meeting, I saw on Channels television how the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio was begging the National Assembly to pass the PIB into law. He was acrimoniously begging them to hastily pass the Bill into law, that even if it is 1%, Niger Delta people won't mind.

As annoying as this sounded, I paused for a while to ascertain what has happened to this man. What have they done to Godswill Akpabio? This was the question that I kept asking myself.

The Niger Delta Affairs Helmsman has become a psychopathic sycophant and a Northern begging slave whose only interest is to beg to remain relevant to the Caliphates. But it has eluded his cerebration that throughout his 8years as governor of Akwa Ibom he enjoyed the 13% resource derivation. He has also forgotten that throughout his 8years of wastage, he enjoyed the excess crude oil refund: same money that successfully turned him into an ubermensch overnight.

Akpabio said and I quote, "Give us any percentage you feel it's okay for you. We will be okay with anything, but if in future we are not okay, we will come back to beg for more. I am speaking for the entire Niger Delta region."

Senator Akpabio needs to be reminded that he is not a state governor to speak for anyone. If the southern governors forum has rejected the 3% of the oil revenue to the host communities, his duty as Minister of Niger Delta Affairs is to meet with Mr. President, giving him reasons why this demand should be honored.

Again, the Minister should consider his age and the length of years this Bill has been swept under carpets by the National Assembly. If the right thing is not done at once, who would go back to beg for more and how long would it take?

If he, Akpabio is to go back and beg maybe after three years, under which platform would he do that?

It is pitiful to see Akpabio, once a mighty man, being reduced to a slave and beggar by the Caliphates simply because he wants to stay active politically. But as Judas Iscarriot, Akpabio will meet his reward sooner or later for practically sowing the seed of betrayal.

There is no need castigating Senator God'swill Akpabio for whatever you may perceive to be His wrong doings,work yourself up the rungs and become a minister and see how possible is it to oppose your employer.At the end of the day you will still call him to beg for financial assistance.Examine yourself,unexamining live is not worth living

It's a shame that the only thing Akpabio can boost of in his administration is good road and corruption,...,..A man can that his administration made over 2 trillions and no tangible thing he can point to apart from road is a big disgrace,..and to even think,.. that's the resources control the previous governor of ND fought for was what he met and squander it...

Wasibe kachickwu not a minister too..
Didnt he speak out when he felt his region was being marginalised?
Akpabio, sylva and amaechi are the worst thing that came out of niger delta.
What have they achieved as ministers?

That statement he made was a shame to the people of Akwa Ibom and Niger delta.

Akpabio has failed us and needs to resign.

Akpabio and all Niger-deltan leaders are a big disgrace to the entire south. Ordinarilythe Niger delta should dictate happenings in this country, for the good of the entire south but No..... Like akpabio like Gej...shame
