An Akwa Ibom man who made an unsubstantiated allegation that nine commissioners in Governor Udom Emmanuel's cabinet tested positive for the coronavirus
An Akwa Ibom man who made an unsubstantiated allegation that nine commissioners in Governor Udom Emmanuel’s cabinet tested positive for the coronavirus has retracted his statement.
“I wish to sincerely apologize to Rev. Umoh Eno, the Royalty Hotels, the Akwa Ibom State Government and its commissioners for dragging the name of the state unduly,” he said in the Facebook post. “The first day I was arrested and detained, a young man I haven’t met before by name Kesh Umoh reached out to me, after a few words of sympathy he offered to contribute a token for my lawyers and stuff. I was shocked to get an alert of N50k. We’ve never met,” he wrote on the social media site.
