The Senate Minority Leader and senator representing Akwa Ibom North West Senatorial District, Godswill Akpabio, has denied media speculations that he was embroiled in a rift with his successor, Governor Udom Emmanuel describing such insinuations as the handiwork of political jobbers.
Senator Akpabio, in a statement in Abuja by his Special Assistant on Media, Anietie Ekong said so far he was satisfied with the performance of Governor Emmanuel and added that he cannot be engaged in a feud with an administration that Ikot Ekpene Senatorial District played a significant role on its emergence.
The statement cautioned those making inciting statements to create a wedge between the senator and the governor to desist from it as they were only doing so for their personal benefit. He sued for peace in the state and advised politicians to desist from politics of hatred and blackmail which would not augur well for the unity of the state.
