Igini is Unfit To Hold Public Office- Akpabio

Godswill Akpabio, the senator who represented Akwa Ibom North-West Senatorial district in the 8th assembly, has described the state's electoral commissioner, Mr Mike Igini as the most compromised electoral officer in Nigeria. That he should not be allowed to hold public office.

Akpabio stated this at Ukana, Essien Udim Local Government area of the state while empowering some of his constituents. he accused Mike Igini, resident electoral commissioner of the state, of denying him of the mandate freely given to him.

Saying, "God will soon expose those who fraudulently orchestrated' his loss in the last national assembly election.

He insisted that he did not lose the election, and urged his people not to be dismayed by the temporary setback.

“Please nobody should have any headache, nobody should cry because there is no need. You know your senator cannot lose election because we were all there,” he said.

“But many of them thought they can go and write whatever they like and even cancel what you won. I have never in my life experienced a resident electoral commissioner like Mike Igini and my message to him is that his hypocrisy will be exposed.

“There is no way you can come into Akwa Ibom and commit that kind of electoral fraud you committed then you go back to Channels Television and sit down and talk as if you are a pope.

“Very soon the world will know… All the materials we are recovering everyday will expose you.

“Just yesterday, the police arrested people carrying materials from where they voted and were trying to sneak into INEC. The other day, they arrested someone with card readers. He was frantically calling and trying to say that they were used for training three months after election so that they will continue to manipulate," he said.

Akpabio also said that he intends to join President Muhammadu Buhari to sanitise the nation’s electoral system.

”For me, it is important as a former governor and elder statesman to join the President to sanitize the electoral process so that we will ensure that votes count in future elections."

”There is no need for Nigeria to continue taking one step forward and five steps backward," Akpabio posited.
