Speaking at the February edition of the Government House Covenant Service held at Banquet Hall, Government House, Uyo, the Governor said since Rev Yinka has apologized, Akwa Ibom people should accept and put the entire thing behind.

We have accepted the apologies. And, we are even more blessed by the Founder and General Overseer of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor W.F. Kumuyi, who was here in the State at the same time for a five-day crusade of hi...

  BY DR AUSTIN ORETTE   There is no deliberate policy to kill Christians. The crisis in the North since the 40's, 50's, 60's, and 70’s and today is about land. The Hausa and other natives have the land and the Fulani people have no land.   The military throughout the past years tried to use government decrees to forcefully take land from the natives and give it to Fulani. One of those laws is the Land Use Decree authored by Olusegun Obasanjo.   Still, the natives resisted it. It is this struggle for land that led to various crises. The Fulani people are nomads. They used to be transient and seasonal visitors. Due to climate change and other modern issues, they now see the need for livestock settlements.  They have also become desperate.   Those using cow dung as manure for their farms are now hostile because the Fulani people are staying longer and beginning to have an attachment to the land that was not there. They tried very hard to use the military and t...

...The governor Akwa Ibom  people must reject and will not vote for in March 2O19. By Alhaji Aminu Akwa Ibom people have learnt their lessons over the years. They have exercised enough patience for over three and a half years expecting sudden changes in accordance with electoral promises made by a christian  deacon  called governor Udom Emmanuel since 2O15...till date. Sadly the people have rather been confronted with fallacious tales, and baseless  excuses. Instructively, there is an  ecclesiastical verdict which posits that  there is a time and purpose for everything  on earth. A time to laugh, a time to cry . A time to accept and a time to reject. A time to endure and a time to object. A time to be happy and a time to be sad. A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather them together .etc.  This philosophical submission has critical implications in the prevailing  circumstances of our state. This is a time for Akwa Ibom peopl...
