In one headline saharareporters told us Akpabio is so corrupt he stole billions, now they tell us he's so poor he's not credit worthy, how confused are the cretins that run shariareporters?
but it was clearly written why he could not withdraw money with his credit card. Didn't you read it?

And how is this news? Anybody's credit card can be declined anywhere, anytime, by computer glitch or forgetfulness of pin number.

David Cameron or Barack Obama's credit card could have been declined anytime any where by computer glitch or forgetfulness of pin number.
This could have made news on Tinubu's saharareporters

Former Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom
State, who is a current Nigerian senator, today
faced serious embarrassment at Mandarin
Oriental Hotel, a luxury five-star hotel in the
Knightsbridge area of London. Mr. Akpabio’s credit
card was declined as the ex-governor tried to check
in.

Mr. Akpabio had been in London to receive medical
treatment after his car bullet proof G-Wagon
Mercedes Benz collided with an American Embassy
diplomatic vehicle in Abuja. The accident had
occurred after Mr. Akpabio’s driver reportedly failed to stop at a traffic light.

At the reception of Mandarin Hotel, a flustered
Senator Akpabio, who wore a blue sports jacket, was visibly embarrassed on being told that his credit card had been denied. Two unidentified persons were with the former governor at the reception desk as he looked worried and flummoxed about the credit card predicament.

In the thick of the fiasco, the former governor was
heard barking orders at an official at Eco Bank in
Lagos. He persistently asked why his card was not
working.

Mr. Akpabio remained at the reception for a while,
apparently at the insistence of the hotel’s
management, who later checked him in.
Mr. Akpabio, who as governor claimed that he had
built a multi-million dollar “world class” hospital in
Uyo, the capital of Akwa Ibom, chose to be flown to
the UK for treatment after his accident.
When SaharaReporters reached the former
governor, he admitted that his card was declined
because he had used the card to check out of the
Four Seasons luxury hotel earlier today. Akpabio
stated that his credit card had maxed out of its daily
spending limit.

Akpabio also told SaharaReporters when asked why
he didn't check into the "World Class" clinic he built
in his home state for treatment, he denied
accusations that he had neglected to equip the so-
called top-tier hospital in Akwa Ibom. The former
governor claimed he had not rented equipment that
were shown to the media during the official unveiling of the hospital, adding that the delay in opening the hospital was due to Immigration processing relating to the doctors to be brought to work at the hospital .

Mr. Akpabio has emerged as the leader of the
Peoples Democratic Party in the National Assembly.

I suffered the same embarrasment recently in UAE i. Luckily I had cash on me. Apparently credit cards issued by Nigeria banks are no more usable outside Nigeria "to prevent capital flight". Sai Baba [osi] ! SMH

People are just talking out of ignorance.

It is not that he did not have enough money on the card, it's most likely that his cards are naira denominated cards and he has reached his daily/yearly spend limit set by CBN - apolicy they had to introduce after thieves like him killed our naira due to hiding millions dollars in their toilets.

Just sad that SR is based in New York, yet they have refused to improve on their reporting skill, or learn how political media outfits in US help to campaign for good governance and strong institutions. It is a pity that this kind of beer parlour gossip is taken as news.

For almost a week now, I have been trying to use my CC to pay for NIGERIAN PASSPORT, yet it has been declined. Nigeria has been blacklisted by many CC companies. Why can't SR make an investigation into this and save Nigerians home and abroad from undue harassments?

Aside witch-hunting politicians who they don't like or agree with, what is SR's use to the poor Nigerian masses?

In the same report , Akpabio was quoted as saying the credit card had exceeded its maximum for the day. Do we really have an ex-public and present office holder that has not looted the treasury?
