RE: ALLEGED PETITION TO EFCC AGAINST “GOV” UDOM EMMANUEL. LET US TREASURE AND COURT SEN. GODSWILL AKPABIO, GCON, SENATE PRESIDENT, OUR ACCESS, TO DELIVER MORE.

On behalf of the Leadership, membership & followership of The All Progressives Congress, Akwa Ibom State, The progressive Conscience and Team Nigeria, and indeed all development conscious Akwa Ibom citizens, we reference the publications and discussions regarding alleged petition against the immediate past Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Deacon Udom Emmanuel to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to account for his tenure in office and the attempt to deflect from the subject, searching in diversionary tactics for persons allegedly behind such, attempting in course to link the Senate President’s person or office thereto, we volunteer a brief intervention THUS :
THAT from all interactions there is nothing to link the Senate President or His office and Associates with the alleged petition.
THAT the concentration should be on preparation to answer to the veracity or otherwise of the issues stated in the purported petition, admitting or denying the facts therein alleged and not seek to divert attention by these fruitless attempts.
THAT ALL Akwa Ibomites should unite more to support and court Senator Godswill Akpabio in His standing as President of the Senate to deliver on His assignment and role as the Head of the Legislative Arm of Government and number 3 citizen of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
THAT as obtained in other States who have had the privilege of their Sons holding such positions in the past, we should as traditional sink all our differences, bury our party and ethnic divides, have our basket of development challenges and present them to him to process and cause such within his powers and control to be executed while processing the rest to Mr President and appropriate Ministers and Institutions to handle for the benefit of our State.
THAT thus far the citizens and Government of our State had seemed admirably to adopt and pursue this path uniting behind the Senate President across party lines until this unfortunate false spill Re Deacon Udom Emmanuel and the EFCC alleged petition.
THAT as a person and officer of the Federal Government through the Radio and Television program on TEAM Nigeria drew attention to ALL and more of the issues raised in the alleged petition from year 2016 to 2024, even after Gov Udom had left office holding that every person in public office must have his day to account, if not before the people he served, but to our God ultimately.
THAT for the referenced 8 years plus advocacy in the Akwa Ibom wilderness, I was taken to Court on the question whether Udom Emmanuel’s administration was the worst government in Nigeria, for which question we are at The Court of Appeal, Abuja. So, the issue is not persons behind petition, but if there are questions to answer on tenure.
THAT to my knowledge, Senator Godswill Akpabio is to engage on budget and Economy management legislative issues, relationship amongst peers and delivering on President Bola Tinubu renewed hope Agenda, the big National picture with no time or window for trivialities on what somebody may have done during his tenure.
AND THAT the Senate President shall continue to take the entire Akwa Ibom State and.the ENTIRE Nigeria as his Constituency without discrimination and deliver on the big National space and picture, ignoring trivialities from low minded new “SAINTS”.
We should in conclusion please TREASURE Sen Godswill Akpabio, the President of the Senate,our lead access to the Federal Government.
We do not know when next again our State or region will again be privileged for this coveted position, for THE SUN SHINES UPON NATIONS IN TURNS.
Senator ITA ENANG, OFR, NPOM.
Emeritus Presidential Liaison to the National Assembly
