All of the State EXCO ed the Governor in moving to the APC, save for one

The 42yo is a former State PDP Publicity Secretary (2016-2020), and later Information Commissioner under former Governor Udom Emmanuel

Behold another bend
Today, I have tendered my resignation to the Governor in compliance with his directive that his appointees who are unwilling to him on the political journey to the APC should resign.

While I cannot question or fault the Governor’s personal decision, I am unable to in that sojourn. My decision is borne out of my belief in politics with principles and my long standing opposition to that political platform, which is daily validated by numerous Nigerians across many sectors. This decision does not affect my personal relationship with the Governor, who calls me his brother and reposed great confidence in me by saddling me with two very important ministries (Information and Special Duties & Ibom Deep Sea Port). I have and will continue to have tremendous respect for HE Governor Umo Eno, even out of EXCO.

About my history in political and public service, I look back with great satisfaction at the work I have done and leave the ultimate judgement to history and posterity. Given another opportunity, I will do more.

Let me convey the very sincere appreciation of my family to His Excellency, Pastor Umo Eno for appointing me into his cabinet. Our very special appreciation goes to Mr. Udom Emmanuel, the immediate past Governor of Akwa Ibom State for his enduring love and belief in me, especially for appointing me into the Executive Council during his istration.

I understand this decision may not please everyone, and to those who are disappointed, I humbly seek your understanding.

As usual, I do not know the future, but I know HE who holds the future and I trust that at the end, all things work together for good, to those who love the Lord and are the called unto HIS purpose.

Yak Emem Aba!

No reasonable human with good conscience will the evil party call APC. A party where the president is a drug baron and certificate forger. Most people have lost their sense of reasoning for a temporary position. What a country govern by men without economy knowledge!!!

Nice one Comrade ... 👏

We still have few noble minds in Nigeria who stood by their morals

All the best to you

We don't drag people to Apc, they come willingly and also don't see those who have contrary opinion like a threat or enemies.

We still have few noble minds in Nigeria who stood by their morals over money

.

Good riddance. Someone better will take his place.

Nothing like noble oooo

The abuse this man gave Akpabio Chai, if Akpabio even get him in APC it won't be funny.... It's like Lai Mohammed moving to PDP

Good move brother..

You either stand for something or fall for anything.
Rare exhibition of being principled when every other person is caving in.

Elon Musk of AKS. Well done Comrade

Bro forget
What about Bwala or Reno and Tinubu
Give the man some credit

KillahPriest:

You know I could have dragged the group you associate with which are known for killing others opinions but I decided to make my comments neutral

Wishing the guy the best on this same thread, isn't that convincing enough to back my comments.

You guys should allow others to express themselves without turning to opinion killers.

Live and allow others to breathe

See the way you are ventilating as if you are a critical stakeholder of the worst party in the history of the country. A party no different from PDP

You are only here to protect your 30K media job.

Thank you for giving away your position. Many people have been praying for that same post you occupied.
Within 24 hours a replacement would be announced so you just deprived yourself of the government money.

These days, e dey make me really happy To see men wey dey hold on to their principle when its not the easy way out.

The truth is that in life, even if you are a very good man, a vey decent man, if you cannot hold on to your principle you will eventually become a big liability, even bigger liability than the bad man that is steadfast.

Lets know u are unwavering first, then secondly we check if your charcater and competence are a fit. But first things first, STAND FOR SOMETHING and DONT FLINCH

fergie001:

It's not about rating or not
The man could have defected and used the same mouth he used to call Akpabio names to kiss his feet like Bwala and Reno are doing and like FFK did with Buhari
That he did not APC is not about out of fear of what he said about Akpabio that's the point I'm making.

Better money nor dey flow for his ministries...

Most Nigerian politicians have no career nor means of livelihood aside proceeds from government's treasury, that's why they will defect as many times as possible even in dead.

This is strange and commendable!
