Kinsmen of the Senate President Godswill Akpabio’s Annang ethnic nationality in Akwa Ibom State have expressed dismay at an attempt by the Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, to denigrate the office of the number three citizen, describing the allegation as cheap lies to score a cheap political point.
The eight paramount rulers drawn from the eight local government areas in Annang land, who met under the aegis of Afe Nkuku Annang (ANA), noted that instead of Natasha disgracing their son in the failed plot, “she ended up rubbishing herself, her constituents, the womenfolk and Nigeria at large.”
Rising from the meeting held at the palace of the chairman of the forum, Obong Akpan (JP), who is also the paramount ruler of Essien Udim local government area, the royal fathers noted that Natasha’s action has exposed her moral bankruptcy.
The communique signed by the chairman, Obong Akpan; the secretary general, Akuku Johnson Obosi (Oruk Anam), and others from Etim Ekpo, Ukanafun, Ika, Obot Akara and Ikot Ekpene LGAs, noted that Senator Natasha’s allegation was deliberately concocted to decimate President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
They, therefore, warned Nigerians to be careful of desperate politicians on their evil mission to divide the country, assuring that their position would remain apolitical, but advisory so that people would not ruin the polity with unnecessary political tricks.
