Former governor of Akwa Ibom State and member of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio is in big trouble as Akwa Ibom State leaders and elders are set to battle him following his unguarded remark that he will turn Akwa Ibom into a war zone and make it a conquered territory in 2019.
One of the leaders in the state, Chief Nduese Essien, a former National Assembly Member and ex-Minister of Lands and Housing, said; “Let them bring federal might and develop our state not to rig election, we will resist every attempt to rig election in 2019.”
Also, Senator Bassey Albert, Chairman, Senate Committee on Gas and Member representing Akwa Ibom North-East Senatorial District, divulge that; “They have vowed to use federal might on us but no federal might will work on us. Akwa Ibom is PDP. God says I will upturn and upturn and upturn until his will is established. Power belongs to God. You are a divine choice of God for this state and there is nothing the power of man can do about that.”
For those who don’t know, Senator Godswill Akpabio had while speaking at a function in Enugu, reportedly told the gathering that if it means using war to capture Akwa Ibom for the APC, he is prepared to do so in the same manner German Junta, Adolf Hitler invaded Warsaw, Poland in 1940, leaving more than 600,000 dead.
