Confusion Trails Senator Akpabio's Election

The election of the former governor of Akwa Ibom state and the Senate minority leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio, has not been nullified by the Federal Court of Appeal contrary to earlier reports.[/size]

Sahara Reporters had reported that Akpabio was thrown out of the Senate because of what the court described as ”violations to the Electoral Act during the senatorial election between Mr Akpabio and the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate Inibehe Okori.’‘

Naij.com had expressed reservations on the report because of the timing as courts are not known to sit late in the night.

APC’s Inibehe Okori had approached the court challenging the judgement of the trial tribunal which upheld the disputed March 28 Akwa Ibom North West senatorial election in which Akpabio of the PDP was declared winner.

The three man Appeal Court panel had earlier berated the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), for what it says is ”it’s public display of partisanship and failure to remain neutral as an independent electoral umpire and wondered why the commission should cry more than the bereaved in the suit.”

Below are some reactions to the fake report by the official twitter handle of the Peoples Democratic Party:

RICHESTBABA:
which vote! I will tear d ballot papers! We re not ibos! Ibo can go wit their biafrra!

okay, you will have to travel around all Niger Delta states and the local government areas to tear ballot papers, go luck with that...

uchedydy:
Nice one sir, but if you are want to post or make allegation, shouldnt you have proof ready before making allegations? Do you first write before looking for evidence? That would be putting the cart before the house.

This incesant and indiscrinate throw of allegations isnt what grows a country at all.

[size=15pt]it is possible to beware of a crime with having sufficient proof... for instance, if you are the only witness to a crime, you don't have video or other evidence, just you memory to relay on, that may not be sufficient evidence for the country...

But even if you have sufficient evidence, if the judge decides to deny you the affidavit because he or she is corrupt, you'll still get to go to jail for posting it, this is especially possible in a place like Nigeria, because our public officers are easily corruptible...

The Law, I would propose to for this false attacks by Newspapers, which is obviously the problem, not social media, is that any news organisation that publishes false allegations (i.e. has passed through their editorial) should be fined by a regulatory organisation, it will encourage the Newspapers to clearly investigate claims they make, or specify when they are just speculating.[/size]

[size=15pt]hahaha! WE KNOW APC, IS TO RIP-OFF NIGERIA, PROMOTE SHARIA LAW AND ALIENATING SECTIONS OF THE COUNTRY...
KEEP SCAMMING THOUGH![/size]

[size=15pt]NO!!! THAT DIMWITTED DOCTOR? WHY?

WHEN OBAMA DID HIS BEST TO AVOID AFRICA...[/size]

[size=15pt]very possible... but I would believe the DSS are doing it even more![/size]

[size=15pt]Umana, PDP defectors destroying APC in Akwa Ibom, Udoedehe alleges[/size]

Former Minister of State for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Senator John Akpan udoedehe, has accused Chief Umana Okon Umana, the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Akwa Ibo State in the last election, of engaging in acts capable of destroying the party in the state.

The former minister, who was also the governorship candidate of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) in the 2011 general elections, further alleged that Umana in concert with defectors from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are out to blackmail him out of APC for their selfish gains.

Reacting to his alleged plan to join the PDP, Akpanudoedehe said the report was the handiwork of his political opponents to paint him black in the eyes of the people and the leadership of the party.

He added that as a foundation member who toiled hard to popularise the progressive party in the state right from the ACN days in spite of threats to his life, he would not abandon the platform for those whom he described as “opportunists.”

Speaking through one of his aides, Barrister Francis Effanga, the former Senator said: “We are not supposed to join issues with Umana Okon Umana and his small group of PDP defectors who have turned our party (APC) into a money-making machine for themselves. These people have tried severally to present the Leader of APC in Akwa Ibom State, Senator John James Akpanudoedehe, as a violent person simply because he stands for what he believes in.

“Senator Akpanudoedehe is the symbol of the struggle against the tyranical PDP government of Godswill Akpabio in which Umana Okon Umana was the engine room. Udoedehe midwifed the birth of APC right from the beginning. He has put in a lot to build the party and he has the right to jealousy guard it. Attempts therefore to blackmail him out of the party will not work.

Udoedehe alleged that report of his purported plan to join the PDP was part of the plan by Umana and his group to keep the APC in Akwa Ibom divided.

Noting that he has written several letters to the party’s National Chairman, Chief John Oyegun, “to draw his attention to the lack of inclusiveness applied by Umana and his co-PDP joiners and the irrational, one-sided suspension of members by the state chairman of the party ostensibly on Umana’s instructions,” Udoedehe further alleged that the APC candidate had allegedly boasted that no founding member of the party would be part of the change that founding members of the party fought for.
