Udom Emmanuel Flags off Campaign Today in Akwa Ibom [Photos]
The Executive Governor of Akwa Ibom State in the person of His Excellency Udon Emmanuel has flagged off his 2019 gubernatorial campaign in Akwa Ibom State today. The campaign which took place today at the Akwa Ibom township stadium had so many PDP supporters in attendance.
In a series of events that occurred last year within the state, saw the former Governor of Akwa Ibom State who is also a serving Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in the Person of Sen. Godswill Akpabio decamp from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and join the All Progressive Congress (APC).
Governor Udom Emmanuel is seeking for re-election in 2019 under the platform of the People’s Democratic Party.
Few Photos of the campaign rally has emerged on social media, with some indigenes of the Akwa Ibom saying Governor Udom Emmanuel has worked and therefore deserves a second tenure over the affairs of the State.
The campaign also witnessed the defection of APC chieftain and former Speaker of Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Engr. Ignatius Edet with over 5000 supporters to PDP.
