There Was No Valid Election In Akwa Ibom State - Umana

The Akwa Ibom State APC Governorship candidate in the just concluded general elections, Mr. Umana Okon Umana has said that there was no valid election in Akwa Ibom State.

He made the statement during a courtesy call on the President- elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari. In his response, Gen Buhari assured the delegation that  fighting corruption is one of the priorities of his administration, saying that if we don't kill corruption, corruption will kill Nigeria.
According to him, the nation’s problems were not ethnic or religious, but corruption. He said tackling corruption is third on his agenda, after insecurity and unemployment.
“We have to get the issue of the economy right to make sure the jobs are made available and we should try to kill corruption before corruption kills Nigeria.
“Let us practice what we preach as well, whoever wins as a governor too has a lot of work to do because corruption is fast becoming a culture and to try to caution people is not an easy task but it must be done,” he said.
During the meeting, he also encouraged Umana Umana, the APC gubernatorial candidate in Akwa Ibom, who lost to Udom Emmanuel (PDP), with the story of his three political struggles in court.
“I have appealed three times and arrived at the Supreme Court not because I believe the system had changed but this time around, in your own case, you were still denied even with the use of PVCs and the card readers,” he advised.
