These men had understanding in culture, they were ingenious in the creation of opportunities for themselves and resolute in their pursuit of their rights. And from history, their intention was noble, the force of life enabled them to live their dreams.

ONOFIOK LUKE, UMO ENO AND THE AKWA IBOM MONARCHS’ PEACE DEAL

-Essien Ndueso

The last time the royal fathers in Akwa Ibom sat in a forum in this mode to resolve a major contending issue, was sometime in January 2012 at the instance of Senator Godswill Akpabio, then Governor of Akwa Ibom State following the collapse of negotiations with the Nigeria Labour Congress in the State led by Comrade Unyime Usoro. The issue at the time was the protracted industrial action occasioned by the minimum wage increment to 18,000 naira. While the national leadership of the NLC called of the strike July penultimate year, Akwa Ibom State labour leadership sustained the strike into the new year and insisted that they would listen to no other music except that which harmonizes the increment across all the salary grade levels. The Royal fathers had to leave their comfort zones to come help talk to the labour leaders.

It is fast becoming a cliché, that what the elder sees sitting down, an infant cannot see from an Iroko tree. It is common knowledge that in the season of politics, the Chiefs and Elders get more consultation items based on the volume of contenders and the attendant conflicts. In some localities, the elders even instigate the conflicts in order to be at the receiving end, as mediators. Akwa Ibom Royal fathers are different: they are neither greedy nor self-seeking and would rather reign over peace than a war-torn hostile society. They know the essence of harmony and peaceful coexistence and they are also ready to stand by the truth and defend it.
Ntenyin (Dr.) Solomon Etuk, the Akwa Ibom Supreme Monarch, is a father, a model of peace and a great patriot. He went all out to bring together Barr. Onofiok Luke (Federal Law Maker, Representing Etinan Federal Constituency, and Former Speaker Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly) and Pastor Umo B Eno (the P.D.P Governorship candidate) because, according to him, he couldn’t watch his sons not at peace with each other, while he's still alive.

The Monarch used his position as the King of the Ibibios, the head of all the traditional institutions in the state, and the host paramount ruler of the two political contenders to bring together royal fathers from other parts of the State for the peace brokering. The monarchs present included the Paramount Rulers of Eket, Esit Eket, Ikot Abasi, Ibesikpo Asutan, and even Ibiono Ibom local government area.
In Dr. Solomon Etuk’s words, “Edong ubok eto inwang ami ke edo ndito eka.” The farm work should be done together by brothers in order to achieve better results. The Royal fathers from their position of trust and wisdom, know that Akwa Ibom people are honest people and that they will not betray the only political vehicle that has brought all the dividends on their landscape. The fathers also know that Pastor Umo Eno is the best among the rest and as a clergy and one without malice, he wouldn’t take any course of action that will mortgage the peaceful state of the State. They also, are aware that there is no way one who has been successful in private investments would not be successful in managing state resources to the common good of all. Like Obong Victor Attah said recently, as elders they examined all the aspirants and the one who met their nod, was the man who had no history of belonging to any group or pecuniary interest, as his only established group was the Akwa Ibom group.

Pastor Umo Eno's action portrays humility and he can be described as a man of love and peace with a large heart who is ready to carry everyone along as expected of a good leader. ”I may be your senior by age, but you are older to me in politics and I do not take this endorsement for granted”, Pastor Eno replied Onofiok Luke immediately, and added that, “Your people shall be my people,” thereby allaying fears and doubts on what could become of the supporters of the former Speaker.

Barr. Onofiok Luke is a milord, gentle, calm, kind, peaceable, and affable. It would be an understatement to say that there were pressure from friends, allies and kinsmen for Onofiok to hold on to the battle and rather scatter the cooking pot, than to throw in the towel. By right, he has the experience and exposure in politics and is very loved by several youths within and outside the state. He would have behaved like Rehoboam by heeding to the council of some of his contemporaries who would love to see a clash. But he did what Rehoboam, son of Solomon refused to do: he heeded the council of the Royal fathers and offered to support Pastor Eno to victory. For what else are noble men known? Onofiok, just like others, knows that Umo Eno has a forgiving heart, and will still gladly welcome back everyone who returns, even after he assumes office as the Governor in 2023. The former State Assembly speaker, knows that all those using leaves and brooms to bark at the PDP Hilltop Mansion Top Contender, will end up putting those leaves on swept grounds for the next Governor of the State, and would receive a warm embrace from him. But Onofiok, a Qua Iboe Church baptized brethren knows that a good name is worth more than riches, opted for wise counsel and today stensils his name boldly in the annals of history.

It is without doubt that our culture has not had a history of violent people who despise peace, and these royal fathers have reinvented those values by coming out to sue for peace through a harmonious reconciliation process for the noble gentlemen. This one simple but powerful step teaches a lesson, especially to those who have already begun throwing tantrums at a political platform that made them who they are in the society today. A lesson, that what does not favour you today may definitely favour you tomorrow. Indeed, kudos to our royal fathers, for cementing their position as the true custodians of our people's ancient values and culture, a tradition of peaceful coexistence and harmony.

AKAN OKON PLEADS FOR ONE
MONTH ADJOURNMENT

In a move that surprised lawyers and journalists at the Federal High Court, Uyo today, Barr Uche Awa, SAN, the lead counsel for Akan Okon, the plaintiff in a case of alleged certificate forgery against Pastor Umo Eno, the Akwa Ibom PDP governorship candidate, opted for a one month adjournment of the case that has captured the attention of the entire Akwa Ibom people for months now.

The legal melodrama began soon after the court had thrashed the application by another governorship aspirant, Akan Etim, to be joined in the case.

In a judgement that Justice Agatha Okeke read for about one hour, the court dismissed the application by Etim as lacking merit, describing him as a “meddlesome interloper and busy body”.

Lawyers and journalists who had listened to the counsels of Eno, Okon and Etim argued the case in the previous court session were not surprised by the court judgement.

What came as a surprise however was the reluctance of the plaintiff’s (Akan Okon) lawyers to get the main case off the ground immediately.

The judge requested the lead counsels to pick a date for the main case. Barr. Usoro representing Pastor Eno spoke first and picked next week, August 5, 2022.

As Justice Okeke reached for her diary, Barr. Awa representing Akan Okon, mentioned a September date. Usoro politely disagreed. The judge requested two SANs, who clearly showed a lot of respect for each other, to sort it out between themselves. Barr.

Awa moved to where Barr. Usoro stood. The two literally put heads together and spoke in whispers for a minute or two, and shook their heads in apparent agreement. Barr.

Awa now gave a reason for a prolonged adjournment that he requested. He said the plaintiff (Akan Okon) required a medical attention outside the country.

Accordingly, the court agreed. The main case was then adjourned to take off in earnest on August 29, 2022.

26/07/2022

PRESS RELEASE

AKWA IBOM APC ILLEGAL MEDIA AND PUBLICITY COMMITTEE'S COMIC CALL ON PASTOR UMO ENO TO WITHDRAW FROM THE GUBERNATORIAL RACE:

♦️ We have read with amusement, a puerile, ludicrous and indeed laughable press release by the so-called Media and Publicity Committee of the Akwa Ibom State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), calling on Pastor Umo Eno, the next Governor of Akwa Ibom State (by the Grace of God), to withdraw from the gubernatorial race. It looked more like a work of comedy.

♦️ Ordinarily, we would not have bothered to respond to such comic press release by a Media and Publicity Committee that has recently been disowned and declared illegal by no other person than the APC State Publicity Secretary. It is on record.

♦️ Therefore, we are only reacting for the benefit of the general public, so that the credulous hoi polloi barbaroi are not swayed by the antics of these sons of belial and quidnuncs.

♦️ If anybody should apologize and withdraw from the public space, it should be the illegal APC Media and Publicity Committee. It should publicly apologize to the APC faithful and the people of Akwa Ibom State for continuing to impersonate the APC State Publicity Secretary, in defiance of his warning, by fraudulently claiming to speak for the APC. Impersonation, as we all know, is a criminal offence and we expect the APC State Publicity Secretary to follow up on his warning and take legal steps to arrest and bring these bunch of criminals to justice.

♦️ Since the committee is obviously a criminal body, it is not surprising that it has turned a blind eye to the forgery case established by the Police against the APC State Chairman and the illegal APC primaries not recognized by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) which did not monitor such fraud. The illegal committee appears unconcerned about the fact that the APC in Akwa Ibom State has been effectively excluded from participation in the 2023 elections because of the party's illegalities and forgeries. The exclusion is obviously a cause for worry among genuine APC members, certainly not these impostors, who are deploying diversional antics to cushion the effects of the colossal crumbling ruins of a former main opposition party in the State. "For never was a story of more woe than this" of a political party.

♦️ That said, we want to emphatically state that the frontline Gubernatorial Candidate in the state, Pastor Umo Eno, has the requisite credentials to contest the election and has not forged any document. The allegation of forgery levelled against him is ridiculous and baseless. Mr. Akan Okon, a defeated PDP governorship aspirant, who made the allegation, has taken the matter to court and there is the legal dictum that "he who alleges must prove." We are waiting for him to prove his allegation in court.

♦️ It is unreasonable that, rather than wait for the court's verdict, Pastor Umo Eno's traducers, including the illegal APC Media and Publicity Committee, have resorted to social media trial in a futile bid to damage him. Clearly, they are afraid that the court would absolve him of the allegation.

♦️ Increasingly, it is apparent that Pastor Umo Eno, with a huge support base and unassailable lead, is the man to beat in the 2023 governorship election, hence the vicious propaganda against him by his desperate opponents.

♦️ We, therefore, urge all supporters and admirers of the Golden Boy to remain resolute in the face of this ferocious campaign of calumny.

♦️ This too shall pass away. And victory is certain.

Signed:
Prince Chris Abasieyo,
Spokesperson, MPM/Umo Eno for Governor Campaign Organisation.

A Senator's Noiseful YPP And His Eerie Ambition

Otobong Sampson
July 25, 2022

He regards himself as the heir apparent to Government House throne; and lays claim to the diadem. A crown that isn't his inheritance. He says there was a pact in 2015 to handover the leadership of Akwa Ibom State to him in 2023. A claim countered with vehemence and roundly condemned by Akwa Ibom people. He has been asked to make public such document and signatories. Rather than present proofs, he's running around in circles and making warring proclamations. His infamous 'Who Born Dog' phrase mirroring a character who glamourises violence.

Last year, the senator in a risky gaffe, admitted publicly to being a 'cultist for Christ'. In His days on earth, Christ had disciples. When He was ascending to Heaven, his followers were commissioned as Apostles and instructed to make disciples of men. Not to become cultists for Him. It was the reason Christ rebuked Peter when he sliced off an ear and healed back the injured ear immediately.

Bassey Albert wants five million Akwa Ibom people to abide by a political agreement that was signed by less than ten men, allegedly, to make him succeed Governor Udom Emmanuel. Yet, he's kicking that a greater number of people converged to discuss the candidacy of another. His idea of power acquisition in a democracy is not by competence and capacity, but by entitlement.
Not even ArchDuke Franz Ferdinand felt so entitled to the Austrian-Hungary throne. Desperation must never drive ambition. Only fine ideals should.

Last week, Bassey Albert formally left the Peoples Democratic Party to YPP. Other than its colourful letters, there's nothing exciting about his new party. Only noise. It throws up a high school event of many years ago. An inter-school friendly soccer game. The visiting team looked resplendent in their colourful jersey. They were well kitted, too. Their players jogged with so much swagger and noise during the warm up minutes and everyone thought they would walloped us. By the first 45 minutes, our team were five unreplied goals ahead. That's the sort of babel that gives false confidence to OBA and his hither and thither followers.

In a letter announcing his resignation from PDP, Mr. Albert, scavenging for justification quoted Jean Anouilh that "The only immorality is not to do what one has to do when one has to do it".
He said nothing wrong there, yet he isn't right on his current situation. Vacating the seat after parting ways with the party that provided him the springboard to prominence and fortune would be honourable. He should walk the path of honour and resign. If he continues to sit in there to enjoy the epaulettes of the office, then his, is a case of selective perception on morality. He is yet to realize that he is in severe deficit of the credibility to pontificate.

In paragraph 2 of the same letter, he claimed he had served the party through the years without blemish. There, he lied. Albert is currently being prosecuted by the EFCC for alleged money laundering and being in possession of six vehicles worth #204 million, at the instance of one Olajide Omokore, whose companies allegedly executed contracts for the Akwa Ibom State Government when he was finance commissioner.

Genuine ambitions are not fueled by eerie obsession. They are driven by structural needs of the people and configurational patterns of society. An Albert governorship is an unsafe gamble for Akwa Ibom State. A risky political expedition. It will mark another chapter of our slide from peace to pieces. No society should suffer such misfortune. Already, he's become the object of decent people's indignation.

VERBATIM AND EXTEMPORE

“The connect we need to make is to create a middle class and create entrepreneurs to ensure that our youths have jobs…I worry because, if in two years, we don’t give these youths what to do, they will overrun us, regardless of the army that we carry.

Pastor Umo Eno Advocates Increase Participation of Christians in Politics
.. Commends Apostolic Youths for Political Consciousness, Support

Amidst growing concern over quality of leaders across Nigeria, governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Akwa Ibom State, Pastor Umo Eno has advocated for more participation of Christians in politics to positively influence government policies for social good.

Pastor Eno made the advocacy at a Church-Hall meeting with the Apostolic Church Youth Movement which was part of activities for the ongoing 2nd Eket Field Youth Convention 2022 of the Apostolic Church Nigeria taking place at the field temple, Eket.

He noted that leaving politics for only men of the world was dangerous as the consequence, as observed in some parts of the country, could be very unpleasant.

Pastor Eno admitted that though before now, the Christian teachings was against participation in politics, the new consciousness has made it imperative for Christians to participate and dominate government circle to change the narrative.

He alluded to the intervention of Gamaliel in Acts 5:34 noting that such was the place of Christians in todsy's politics.

According to him, when Christians are in politics, they raise their voices in objection to bad policies and seek God's face before decisions are taken.

They will also take decisions based on integrity, equity and justice which will ensure the delivery of good governance.

Fielding questions from some youths during the interactive session, he maintained that Akwa Ibom State has been blessed with quality leaders who have all contributed their quota to the development of the state.

He noted that Governor Udom Emmanuel has opened the State through the three gateways of economic development; land, air, and sea which, according to him, must now be translated to affect the life of the common citizens in the remotest villages.

The governorship hopeful noted that the succeeding administration will have to build on the foundation which has been fully laid for economic transformation of the state.

Pastor Eno himself an offspring of the Apostolic Church, commended the Youth Movement and the Field superintendent for inviting him and their earlier endorsement of his aspiration respectively, saying the increasing political consciousness was a sign of better days for the church.

While advising every youth to be meaningfully engaged, he also urged them to register and collect their Permanent Voters' Cards (PVCs) to enable them vote the candidate of their choice in the forthcoming election.

Earlier in his welcome address, the Field Youth Leader, Apostle A. R. Okpo said the youths of the church were delighted to have one of their own as the Lord's chosen to govern the state from 2023.

In his words, "let me on behalf of the youths in Eket Field congratulate you sir, on the victory God has showered on you, from wining the confidence of Governor Udom Emmanuel to being chosen as his preferred successor, to your winning the PDP gubernatorial primary, and even the numerous court victories now and in the future.

"Certainly, the finger of God is upon your aspiration. You are coming as a shining star at a time the economy of the nation is moribund and the security situation is in disarray.

"Today's Church-Hall meeting is a platform developed by the leadership of the church for the development of young minds, who are ready to key into your ARISE AGENDA and make the State the cynosure of entrepreneurial renaissance."

At the event were; wife of the field superintendent, Mrs. U. S Ukpong, Field Secretary, Apostle B. E. Okon, Deputy Director General of Umo Eno Campaign organization, Akparawa Godwin Ntukudeh, Akwa Ibom State Commissioners for Environment and Solid Minerals, Education, and Culture and Tourism, Sir Charles Udoh, Dr. Idongesit Etiebet, and Hon. Orman Esin respectively, leaders of team Umo Eno, and other support groups of the Umo Eno 2023.

NO CONFUSION IN AKAN OKON VS UMO ENO CASE: IT IS A MATTER OF LEGAL PROCEDURE

Let me set the record straight. Akan Okon filed a case against Umoh Eno challenging the qualifications of Umo Eno.

Mr. Etim Aniekan Akan one of the Governorship aspirants applied to be joined in the suit as a defendant via Motion. Akan Okon, the owner of the case and defendants opposed the motion by Mr Etim to be joined in the suit.

The court heard the motion today. After hearing argument and counter argument, the court naturally has adjourned the case for ruling on the motion. The court would either join or refuse to join Mr. Etim in the coming ruling.

In law, the court is under obligation to resolve the issue of joinder of parties in a suit before hearing the main or substantive case. This is to avoid the issue of breach of fair hearing.

For avoidance of doubt, the main case is going to go on immediately the issue of joinder of parties have been resolved in the coming ruling.

Meanwhile, Pastor Umo Eno has filed his statement of defence and Akan Okon would file his Reply to statement of defence and Pre-trial papers.

You know what, nothing can be done until the court rules on the motion for joinder by Mr Etim. This is because if Mr Etim is eventually joined, the plaintiff would have to amend the entire originating process to reflect the new party.

This is legal procedure. There is no confusion.

Ekom Nwoko.

PASTOR UMO ENO OPPOSES ETIM AKAN’S APPLICATION TO JOIN AKAN OKON’S ELIGIBILITY SUIT

A Federal High Court in Uyo has adjourned to a later date, in the case between Akan Ekpe Okon and the Peoples Democratic Party, Pastor Umo Eno and Independent National Electoral Commission.

When the suit FHC/UY/CS/110/2022 came up Thursday for hearing, Mr Etim Aniekan Akan, one of the defeated aspirants in the PDP Governorship primaries, sought the Court’s leave to be joined as a party in the suit.

However speaking for the 1st and 2nd Defendants, Paul Usoro,SAN citing relevant judicial authority said the only grounds on which a party can be joined in a suit is where their participation will aid the administration of Justice, and where such party’s interests are tied to the interests of the defendants.

Paul Usoro said where the party sought to be joined is seeking the cancellation of the primaries and disqualification of the registered parties, there is no connection between such interests and that of the plaintiffs and the defendants and urged the court to dismiss the application.

The 1st and 2nd defendants reasoned that a necessary party is a party without whose presence the case cannot be completely or effectively determined.

They reasoned further that one can also be joined in a case if the plaintiff had made a case or seeks reliefs that pertain affect that party.

Similarly, the counsel to the plaintiff, Uche Awa,SAN, also opposed to the application by Mr Etim Akan, seeking being joined in the case describing it as abuse of court process.

Mr Etim Akan had pleaded that having bought the forms from the 1st Defendant, and having participated and secured some votes at the primaries, he deserved to be a part of the case.

Tabi Towo who appeared for aspirant, argued that neither the plaintiff Akan Okon, nor the 2nd Defendant Pastor Umo Eno was qualified whereas his client was eminently qualified and asked among other things that the May 25, 2022 governorship primaries be nullified.

The said Etim Akan had in a motion on notice, sought the order of the court to be joined as 4th defendant, and to be served with all the processes filed on the suit.

He argued that in pursuant of Order 9 Rule 5 of the Rules of the Federal High Court, 2019, "any person may be joined as defendant against whom the right to any relief is alleged to exist, whether jointly, severally or in the alternative and judgements may be given against one or more of the defendants as may be found to be liable, according to their respective liabilities, without amendment."

Accordingly, Justice Agatha Okeke adjourned proceedings to a later date to be communicated to the parties, for ruling on the application

.. As PDP Holds Ward Meetings

Ahead of the 2023 general elections in Nigeria, the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), in Akwa Ibom State, Pastor Umo Eno has urged the people of Ibiakpan Obotim Ward II, and by extension, Nsit Ubium and the state at large to register and get their Permanent Voters' Cards (PVCs) to enable them vote for leaders of their choice in the next elections.
