Aftermath Of Tribunal Judgment: PDP, Udom Start Campaign Immediately by Mc4larin(op): 7:27pm On Oct 23, 2015
Barely a couple of days after the Akwa Ibom State Governorship Election petition was decided by the presiding Judge in favour of Obong Umana Okon Umana of All Progressives Congress(APC), the frustrated members of PDP have decided to stage an infantile and premature campaign to mobilize for the forthcoming re-run election, which will be held next year.
Information has it that Mr. Udom Emmanuel earlier today ordered that all major roads leading to Wellington Bassey Way where state Government House is located be closed. Hundreds of hired PDP supporters had gathered at Global Edifice where the flag-off is billed to be launched.
The campaign, which is said to have been masterminded by the State Attorney-General, Mr. Uwemedimo Nwoko, who had pre-informed the governor that, if the APC proceeds to Appeal Court, it will be given the remaining 13 Local Government Areas.
According to a source in the know of plan, the campaign which is staged at the entrance of Government House, Uyo, is to remind the electorates in Uyo to put all hands on deck to ensure that, the PDP wins the election re-run. The State Chairman of PDP, Obong Paul Ekpo, had shortly after the ruling informed those who cared to listen to his/their woe, that the judgment was confusing and has caused uproar in their camp, adding that, the re-run will render PDP useless.

 

It will be recalled that, Barr. Uwemedimo Nwoko had today lamented and cried bitterly on Channels Television, noting that, if a re-run is to be conducted, PDP will lose woefully, especially, as the Change Mantra has come to stay in the state.

A former Senator, who hails from Etinan Federal Constituency, had confirmed that, the re-run campaign has just started, noting that, the timetable of the campaign will be made public in a jiffy.

‘I am a stakeholder of the PDP in the state, we received the judgment with dismay, and it has really disorganized us. As it stands, if we do not start now to campaign, APC will over run us with a landslide victory in the re-run election, which is why we have decided to commence immediately. ‘By next week the timetable will be made available, I can assure you that, we will tour each of the 18 Local Government Areas, three times before the re-run. ‘My fear is that, Udom Emmanuel doesn’t have sink well into the heart of the people considering the posturing of Udom as Akpabio protégé. Again, if you do an electoral analysis in the LGAs cancelled, you would see that over 80% are APC strongholds. Imagine that Uyo LGA is cancelled. Many of the LGAs cancelled have large voter base. How will we win without early planning especially now that Akpabio is no more in the state and the entire security architecture in the state are such that will be very difficult breaking their ranks, but this one is off record, dont quote this part’, the Senator pleaded.
Meanwhile, a team player in APC has described the PDP’s gambit as infantile and useless, noting that, Obong Umana Okon Umana will reclaim the remaining 13 Local Government Areas before the actual election.

In a related development, Udom Emmanuel is reported to be very angry with some of his cabinet members who coordinated the tribunal arrangement. It is believed that some funds were clandestinely disbursed to some members to infiltrate the judges and negotiate for judgement deal but Udom, PDP were surprised at the outcome of the judgement as it renders Udom’s continuous stay in office vulnerable hence why Udom is demanding for a refund since it is discovered that those who coordinated the scheme may have played smart with the money.

i don't see APC winning in my state...I think PDP is deeply rooted in the state....APC has lots of grass root politicking to do, which cannot be completed in 3 months..

See delusions, elections adjudged to have passed every standard should still be cancelled because APC thinks otherwise.

The bye-election is as good as a formality.

if the APC proceeds to Appeal Court, it will be given the remaining 13 Local Government Areas.
