Akon Eyakenyi: Akwa Ibom Senator's Convoy Kills Couple by Niece: 8:29am On Dec 27, 2022

A couple were killed in an accident involving the convoy of Senator Akon Eyakenyi, who represents the Eket Senatorial District in Akwa Ibom South. The accident took place on the Calabar-Itu Highway as Senator Eyakenyi was returning to the state capital, Uyo, from a campaign tour. Senator Eyakenyi is the deputy governorship candidate for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and is running as the party's flag-bearer in the 2023 elections.

According to The Nation, the couple, who were riding a motorcycle, were hit by the senator's convoy as it tried to navigate the busy highway. The couple, who left behind three young children, were reportedly killed on the spot.

In the aftermath of the accident, the Akon-Itam community in the Itu Local Government Area began protesting the deaths of the couple. Reports indicate that the protest turned violent, and some officials from the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) were injured and their patrol vehicle was damaged by the protesters. The Corps Commander, Mathew Olonisaye, confirmed that only their vehicle was vandalized.

The Commissioner of Police, Olatoye Durosinmi, stated that the situation has since been brought under control following successful negotiations. It is not clear at this time whether any compensation has been offered to the family of the couple killed in the accident.

If you can't protect them, why then kill them?

The way all these politicians with their drivers and escorts drives is too dangerous

Nigeria needs sanity on all fronts.
Since I've been travelling all over UK and Europe, I've not seen any convoy of any politician, but in Nigeria, common BBN celebrities use police escorts and convoy. Now imagine how many covoys we'll have on our pothole riddled roads with their reckless driving.

In the UK, the only siren I hear is that of ambulance, police and fire service.
But in my motherland, even PA'S to politicians sent to go and bring prostitutes for their oga will be blowing siren.


We need Peter Obi to sanitize our land

Catch a fly, put it in a bottle and cover with the lid. After some time, take off the lid. Fly will still keep moving within the bottle.
Me: it's freedom time guys
Housefly: I am used to been here bro.

Lessons: Some slaves enjoy slavery even when opportunities to be free comes

Only in Nigeria...!

Even regular citizens with access to money also move with security convoys, acting more than Mr. President himself! Such a ridiculous abuse of influence!

How can a nation be this lawless??!

This is very sad. cry cry

Imagine the tears in the family of the Lagos-based lawyer that was killed recently; then imagine the trauma of this children their parents were snatched away without a goodbye. The direction of the kids have been automatically changed by wicked and unreasonable people who could have averted this death if they drove carefully.

If you know how many way devil can use to kill you in this country, you won’t leave your house without a prayer.
