PRESS RELEASE
Nsima Ekere’s Habitual Display of Rascality and the ill-fated Demand for the Removal of REC
Today,
at the signing of the Peace Accord organized by INEC, the ‘One
chance’Governorship Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Mr.
Nsima Ekere exhibited his consistent, habitual and unrepentant show of
rascality by coming hours after the event had started and sought to
stroll across the main aisle of the venue. Of course by all protocol
standards, he was advised to enter from the front door, but use the
middle aisle to his seat which was at the other end of the hall. He
resisted and insisted on swaggering pass the front. Protocol officers
of INEC offered to take him to his seat but he left boasting that Igini
must be removed.
Long before his arrival, his state chairman,Ini
Okopido had arrived and was seated on his designated seat. The INEC REC
asked about the whereabouts of his candidate, to which he replied that
he (Nsima)was coming, that he had other engagements.
Earlier
this morning, APC media hirelings had started celebrating the
redeployment of the REC, which they alluded to the political sagacity of
Senator Godswill Akpabio and the superior might of their party. Having
realized their inability to remove the REC, Nsima Ekere and Godswill
Akpabio hurriedly hatched the drama of coming late to disrupt the event.
Like all other devilish plans, this has failed.
Raphael Edem
did his duty of only introducing the Governor and other dignitaries and
had stated clearly that he was not the MC. The official MC was Sammy
Williams of Planet FM. But of course, Ini Okopido never tells the truth
because he is always on the opposite side of the it. Mr. Okopido said
that he was late because he was attending another event praying for
peace, how laughable, when Nsima is known to adore, procure and sponsor
violence. He was simply looking for a way of avoiding committing to the
Peace accord, in preparation for their Warsaw promise.
All
responsible Akwa Ibom Stakeholders including Obong Victor Attah attended
the event in good time and participated effectively, but APC and their
candidate Nsima Ekere can never conform to normal etiquette. Recall,
that at the 80th birthday celebration of Obong Victor Attah, Mr.Nsima
Ekere had displayed similar ill behaviors by arriving the event 2 hours
after commencement with a band of scruffy looking persons and attempted
to swagger through the main aisle of the hall, while the celebrator was
speaking. It can be safely presumed that this is Nsima’s ‘notice me’
strategy .
We demand that INEC directs Nsima Ekere to immediately append his signature and subscribe to the Peace Accord.
Finally,
we strongly condemn this habitual show of madness by Nsima Ekere, which
of taken as a sample of our state’s behaviour can create a bad
stereotype, that our people are habitual late comers and ill mannered.
Any
attempt to use this unfortunate display of infantile disposition by
Nsima Ekere, APC and Co to further their demand for the redeployment of
Igini, will surely fail, as others have.
Signed
Comrade Ini Ememobong
State Publicity Secretary
