Desperate politicians

megareal:
Kindly shut up. Akpabio is not as loved as you claim. His move to APC and his trying to play God made people turn their backs on him. Even prominent Annang sons and daughters are not with him. His only way to make it in the elections is to rig and he shot himself in the foot too when he rigged above the numbers of voters in his area. So stop grandstanding for Akpabio.

Qunu:
Akpabio has lost and he has lost. No amount of rigging can save him.

na lie how many people De essien Udim

How much do you know Akwa Ibom?
Stop using insults when making your point. There is a clear difference between registered voters population and just plain residents with no voters card.
Essien Udim people for the love of their sons and daughters who may be contesting, troupe out in their numbers for proper voters registration.
They were so enlighten of the need of the process, and free busses were provided to convey people to and from the voters registration centers.
I speak with authority because I made an integral part of the process - voters education.
Tell me any L. G. A in Akwa Ibom State that were that mobilized, supported and encourage during registration.
N/B I am neither pdp nor apc, I stand for the will of the people and true democracy.

Lying thief. You are voting for Akpabio for Ikot Ekpene senatorial district in Uyo.

MistaCode:

GlenChestnut:
see where the so-called messiah of akwa ibom is voting; shabby ceiling and no louvres in the windows right there. still, some slowpokes and youths without vision will chant glorious songs for this political thief who has looted their akwa ibom treasury to invest in dubai-palm jumeirah. wake up Nigeria youths, enough is enough.

[i]Essien Udim, where Mr Akpabio comes from, is said to be one of the local government areas with a large voter’s population in the state.

he lost in his ward and u are here talking of his local government.

BrainSanitizer:
We are watching. We know that Akpabio is desperate. If he fails to secure a reelection, he's in dip poo. His grand Master has already lost Akwa Ibom so he'd do anything possible to return to the Senate. However, like I always say, the will of the people must prevail.
Hello Akpabio...
You are so f**k*d!!

OkaNaUbe:

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has suspended the announcement of results in Akwa Ibom North-West District, where Godswill Akpabio contested for re-election.

An INEC official in the state told PREMIUM TIMES, Sunday night, that Mr Akpabio’s challenger, Chris Ekpenyong of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), was leading in the results announced so far before the commission took a decision to suspend further announcement.

“We are having some issues with the election in Essien Udim Local Government Area,” said the official who did not want his name mentioned in this report because he was not authorised to speak on the matter.

“If we accept the results from the local government area, Akpabio’s votes will overshoot that of Chris Ekpenyong.

“There are issues in the results which we are yet to be resolved,” the official said.

Messrs Akpabio and Ekpenyong are yet to speak on the development.


Essien Udim, where Mr Akpabio comes from, is said to be one of the local government areas with a large voter’s population in the state.

The senator in a result released on Saturday by INEC in his own polling unit, Ukana West Ward 2, scored 1, 533 votes, while Mr Ekpenyong, a former deputy governor of the state, scored just four votes.

Mr Akpabio’s party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), before the commencement of the elections, had accused the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Akwa Ibom, Mike Igini, of being partisan in favour of the PDP.

The APC had called for Mr Igini’s re-deployment from the state.

The PDP responded by saying the APC was agitated because the REC refused to be “compromised” by the party.

Mr Igini has a reputation in Nigeria as being an incorruptible electoral officer.

If Mr Akpabio fails to win re-election, it would be a major political upset in the country.
