Akwa ibom state governor,Udom Emmanuel and his campaign team have been invited for questioning by the Inspector- General of police(IGP) Ibrahim Idris.
They were invited for allegedly destroying president Mohammadu Buhari presidential campaign billboards in uyo.
Governor Udom has been appointed by his campaign organization to lead the team to Abuja. The invitation was following a petition by the chairman of all APC in the state, Ini Okopido to president Mohammadu Buhari that Emmanual campaign team destroyed his campaign billboards. Buhari directed IGP to wade into the matter and he has invited Emmanual and his campaign team to Abuja for questioning.
Those invited by the IGP are the key officers of Emmanuel Devine Mandate Organisation.
Those invites are : Chairperson of Divine Mandate, Air Commodore Idongesit Nkanga, a retired Nigerian AirForce personal, former head of the Presidential Air Fleet and former Military Administrator of the People’s Democratic Party Chairman in the State Paul Ekpo, the Speaker of the State House of Assembly , Onofiok Luke, Commissioner for Environment Dr. Iniobong Essien, Senior Special Assistant on Security Fubara Duke, the Chairman of Uyo Local Government Council and the Chairman of the Uyo Market Association.
” A security agency established by law has invited us so we have to honor. We obey laws here. It started with the billboard issue and the IGP sent a team from Abuja that investigated and even detained the Commissioner for Environment for no just cause.
Is this their concept to intimidate and take over Akwa Ibom State that they have been orchestrating and boasting about? Acceptability is at the polls. Let’s go there. We are ready”, a ranking government official in the State said before they boarded an aircraft to Abuja.
