Obong Okon Uwah, the candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) for Ukanafun state constituency in Akwa Ibom State, was, Wednesday night, assassinated. He was allegedly murdered by political thugs when he went on a campaign consultation in Ntek, Ukanafun Local Government Area. Reacting to the development yesterday, Akwa Ibom State chapter of APC described Uwah’s assassination as unfortunate. Meanwhile, Governor Godswill Akpabio, who spoke through the Commissioner for Information, Mr. Aniekan Umana, said: “Government regrets that in spite of the accord on peaceful and violence free elections signed by political parties in the state, some miscreants have decided to trample upon the law. It needs stressing that no person’s political ambition is worth the blood of any citizen of Akwa Ibom State.”
