APC reveals PDP govt ‘plans’ against Akpabio,

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom State has raised the alarm over a smear campaign against its governorship candidate, Nsima Ekere.
The party said the Governor Udom Emmanuel’s administration was behind the plot.
A statement by its state Publicity Secretary, Nkereuwem Enyongekere, claimed that there have been a series of secret meetings by top officials at the Government House against Ekere.
The party’s spokesman alleged that the government had a four-pronged approach to discredit its governorship candidate.
He said: “The well-funded and desperate plot is to be carried out in the print and social media. The plot is four-pronged.
‘’One of the strategies is to deceive Akwa Ibom people that Obong Ekere has entered into a secret pact with Senator Godswill Akpabio to serve two terms in office as governor contrary to his promise.
“To deceive Akwa Ibom people that 70 per cent of appointments in Obong Ekere’s government will be done by Senator Akpabio.
“To deceive Akwa Ibom people that the biggest contracts in Obong Ekere’s government will be reserved for Igbo businessmen.
“To deceive Akwa Ibom people that Obong Ekere will soon put up NDDC billboards in Akwa Ibom, claiming Akwa Ibom State Government projects.”
The APC urged the public to discountenance such false publications, which, it said are planned to hit the print and social media in the state from Tuesday, October 9, 2018
Reacting, Udom’s spokesman, Emmanuel, Ekerete Udoh, dismissed the claim.
Udoh said: “This is another desperate attempt by APC in Akwa Ibom State to cover their nefarious activities.
“Nigerians and Akwa Ibomites are living witnesses to the perpetual mudsling that these leftists have hauled at the government and people of Akwa Ibom State in the last three years.
“However, the government of Akwa Ibom State is more focused on sustainable development and not interested in engaging in a mudsling game.”

Muhammadu Buhari is using the fight against corruption to bully politicians from the opposition into joining the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Former Minister of Transport, claimed that President Muhammadu Buhari is using the fight against corruption to bully politicians from the opposition into joining the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
This is coming as outgoing Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose, who has been placed on watch-list by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Monday threatened to dump the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) soon.
Speaking in an interview with Daily Independent, Babatope, a member of the PDP Board of Trustees (BoT), said the President has not waged any serious war against corruption since he came into office almost four years ago.
He stressed that politicians are only described as corrupt when they are in the opposition party.
Babatope said: “President Buhari has not done anything called anti-corruption. Anti-corruption has been a political propaganda by Buhari to ensure that he gets members to his party.
“A man is said to be corrupt, then the next day, he runs to the APC, and is called up, and his sins are forgiven

Full-time: Portugal 1-0 Morocco

Portugal survive! Morocco were the better team for most of the match and created an array of chances but they couldn’t find a telling touch when it mattered most. And that’s what Ronaldo specialises in. His early goal was the difference between the two teams. Morocco are eliminated from the World Cup despite a gallant display. They will be very, very frustrated. For years it was Portugal who had loads of brilliant players but not a top goalscorer. Maybe there’ll be a Moroccan Cristiano Ronaldo along in years to come. But for now, they’re going home (after playing Spain in their last game).
