Mad Man Takes Over Council Office In Akwa Ibom

Mad Man Takes Over Council Office In Akwa Ibom

0 Comment
Fear enveloped the Secretariat of Abak Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State following the take over of an office belonging to a senior official of the Council by a lunatic.

Our correspondent gathered that the mad man gained entrance into the premises, cashing in on security lapses and broke into three offices and carted away files before he finally converted one of the offices to his own.

An eye witness account, a member of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE), Akwa Ibom chapter, who would not want his name in print, explained that “the mentally deranged man was muttering something concerning Governor Akpabio as having sent him to take over the Council following widespread allegations of fraud, indolence and other malpractices leveled against the council.”

We Used Almajiris To Vote Out Jonathan – Kwankwaso

We Used Almajiris To Vote Out Jonathan – Kwankwaso

Rabiu Kwankwaso, governor of Kano state, says Almajiri votes were responsible for kicking Goodluck Jonathan out of the presidential villa in Abuja.

Kwankwaso decried the political play in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying it has divided Nigerians along religious and ethnic lines.



 “It is unfortunate, in the last couple of years, we have seen a polarisation situation, this issue of Christianity, Islam, north and south, and even the issue of tribalism being promoted,” he said.

“It was not good for the system – it was not even good for my friend in the villa, so we are happy, we have seen the end of it now.”

The governor, who was speaking in an on-air interview with Channels television, said the president did well for himself; his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC); and the nation at large by conceding election.
