Coalition of Civil Society Groups for Justice has urged the federal government to probe the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Mines and Steel, Edet Akpan.
They said available records, being investigated by Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission revealed that Mr. Akpan joined the civil service in Akwa Ibom State and his record shows that his original date of birth is 1958. Meanwhile, Akpan has since denied all the allegations even as he explained that he never attended the said school not to talk of having a Senior Secondary School certificate bearing the said year.
