The Akwa Ibom State deputy governor Mr. Nsima Ekere has resigned from office. The Deputy governor beat the members of the State House of
Assembly who had perfected plans to impeach him. He announced his
resignation about 6 p.m. today, Wednesday 31st October, 2012, after news of the
moves to impeach him was confirmed by a reliable source.
The letter of resignation signed by the Press Secretary to the Deputy
Governor Mr. Inemesit and dated Wednesday, October 31, 2012, Mr. Ekere said he was resigning on personal grounds even though their are indications that it was political as Ekere who has been silently working to succeed the
governor in 2015 is alleged to have opened up his plans on how he was
going to take over the government.
He decided to resign to remain politically relevant, because if the House had moved
faster to impeach him, he would by the constitution not be able to
contest any other election in his life.
