The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom State, Obong Nsima Ekere, has accused the state governor, Deacon Udom Emmanuel, of inflicting untold suffering on the people through sheer incompetence and thoughtless policies of his administration.
Speaking at a political rally in Ibesikpo-Asutan Local Government Area, a suburb of Uyo, Ekere called on the people of the state to ask the governor what he has done with so much that has come into the coffers of the state through federal allocations, debt refunds, reimbursements for federal projects executed by the last administration and internally generated revenues.
Ekere asked the people to reject the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) administration in the state and vote for the APC in the upcoming general elections to allow for the implementation of his blueprint of collective prosperity for all.

“I have come here with a message that a vote for me is a vote to banish poverty, hunger, insecurity, theft of local government funds, lawlessness and joblessness of our youths among other anti-people policies of the current administration.
“Akwa Ibom State has no reason to be poor because it receives the highest allocation from the federation account, yet there is nothing to show for it under this administration,” Ekere said.
