Akwa Ibom State government has dismissed the allegation of being involved in the seizure of ex-governor Udom Emmanuel’s property in Lagos by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC. The 2027 governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, in Akwa Ibom State, Senator John James Akpanudoedehe in a video circulating online has accused the governor, Umo Eno of reporting his predecessor to the anti-graft agency, hence the seizure of the property. However, the Commissioner for Information, Aniekan Umanah in a statement on Sunday described Akpanudoedehe’s comment as baseless, inciting and threat to peace.
