Godswill Akpabio & Onofiok Luke. |
We
have read disbelief, Anietie Ekong’s futile attempt at disentangling Senator Godswill
Akpabio from the net and web of his evil conspiracy against the person of Rt.
Hon (Barr) Onofiok Luke and the Office of the Speaker of the Akwa Ibom state
House of Assembly. Just like in real life, the more Senator Akpabio tries to
disentangle himself, the more the net of his ungodly plans draws him in. His
penchant for playing ostrich is common knowledge, but like the ostrich, he is
the only one who doesn’t know that the world has a gracious view of his
backside.
By
this press statement where Sen. Godswill Akpabio refuses to address the Right
Honourable Speaker by his office, rather addressing him as the member
representing Nsit Ubium state constituency, he has clearly shown the world that
his hands are actively in the plot to destabilize the state assembly. But this
hatred for Rt. Hon. Onofiok Luke as Speaker is neither new nor strange, after
all in June 2015, the same Akpabio did everything within and in fact beyond his
powers, to stop the emergence of Rt. Hon. Luke as Speaker. He took away the
clerk of the House, seized the mace, intimidated honourable members and stalled
the process of proclaiming the assembly on time. Akpabio may have in his usual
style chosen to suffer selective amnesia, but Akwa Ibom people and PDP faithful
remember the near Golgotha experience that Rt. Hon Luke passed through to get
the ticket of the PDP for a second term. Akpabio it was who funded the
opposition that the speaker faced during his re-election bid and even wrote off
Nsit Ubium during the elections refusing to offer any financial support for the
elections as the party leader then. He even stopped the party’s financial
assistance to Nsit Ubium.
As
history bears testimony, God has always been on the side of Rt. Hon. Onofiok
Luke. He won the nomination against Akpabio’s schemes, still emerged as the
Speaker against his devious plans and has remained till date the speaker of the
State Assembly and by the grace of God Almighty will remain so till the end of
this legislative tenure, whether Akpabio likes it or not . What the former
Governor hasn’t told his aides is the reason for his annoyance with the
Speaker. The latter has simply opposed the inordinate ambition of the former of
claiming to be the Tinubu of Akwa Ibom state, and being the alpha and
omega of the state.
May
we reiterate that the Honourable Speaker of the Akwa Ibom State House of
Assembly, Rt. Hon. Barr. Onofiok Luke stands by his earlier statement on the
sponsored assassination attempt on him by Senator Akpabio and at the
appropriate time, will take necessary actions. The world should know that if
anything untoward happens to the Speaker, Senator Akpabio and his wife should
be held responsible.
We
deeply sympathize with the plenty refusals Anietie Ekong and co have had to
issue due to the meddlesome nature of their principal. As much as we
empathize with them, we are aware that the earn their keep there.
As
the days pass by, we are certain that opportunities will avail itself for us to
illuminate some dark sides to the main reasons fueling the current
political war in our state.
Anietie
it may interest you to know that Rt. Hon. Onofiok Luke knows Sen. Akpabio very
well and Sen. Akpabio equally knows Rt. Hon. Onofiok Luke well.

Okon .
Press
Secretary to the Honourable Speaker
Akwa
Ibom state House of Assembly.
