FORMER Akwa Ibom State Governor and Senator representing Akwa Ibom North in the national assembly, Godswill Akpabio has said the confidence reposed in the electoral umpire, the Independent National Electoral Commission has been eroded. He said: “You know that INEC is an Independent body, but some of its officials are not totally Independent. When people are with you, you will win the election, but when they are not with you, you don’t win. People say they have doubt about Akwa Ibom becoming an APC state. I can tell you that Akwa Ibom is already an APC state, just waiting for the election to happen.”
