Governor Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State has replied his predecessor, Senator Godswill Akpabio over his remark, threatening that he will not treat statements that are bound to cause public disaffection, lightly…

Gov. Udom Emmanuel and Sen. Godswill Akpabio

“This year is going to be a little bit busier in terms of politics and once you enter into the political terrain of this nature, many things will come up. But let me also use this platform to warn any Akwa Ibom person that, with the sacrifice we have made to maintain peace in the state, we won’t allow anybody to breach that peace. You can see that people have made a lot of sacrifices in the last three years to maintain peace in the state.”

“Let me also say here that it is just a new political theory where a post graduate student will score 100 per cent and you say it is a mock examination and then, is a failure.  So if you scored 100 per cent and under the new dispensation of a political theory, it is a failure, it means we have to go back to the drawing board and know what the pass mark is.”

“If 100 per cent under the new political theory is a failure, then it holds much to be desired. I want to believe that every single individual will respect himself or herself so that peace can reign in Akwa Ibom State and that is the last warning I will give.”
