Elders of Ikot Abasi Local Government Area have weekend affirmed the earlier endorsement of Obong Nsima Ekere governorship ambition by the founding fathers of the PDP in Ikot Abasi Federal Constituency.
The affirmation is sequel to some advertorials in local newspapers claiming that the Ikot Abasi stakeholders have rejected Ekere’s quest of becoming the next governor of the state in 2015.
The elders made the assertion in an advertorial, stating that; “That we and indeed the good people of Ikot Abasi are not against the adoption of Obong Nsima Ekere by the founding fathers of the PDP in Ikot Abasi Federal Constituency as their preferred governorship candidate because it is within their legitimate rights.”
