Stop creating false sense of insecurity, AKSG tells APC

The Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Akwa Ibom State, Charles Udoh has asked the All Progressives Congress, APC to stop creating what he called false sense of insecurity in the state.

Speaking in a telephone interview with VANGUARD reporter, Udoh stated that the recent police invitation to the state Commissioner of Environment and some principal government officials over false claim of destruction of billboards was a plot to deploy federal might in the state.

Insecurity He noted that it is regrettable that the Inspector General of Police would devote such time and attention to issue of billboard by inviting government officials to Abuja whereas nothing was heard from the IGP when a police station in the state was completely burnt.

Udoh said that what the APC-led federal government is doing in Akwa Ibom State, is a sad commentary for democracy just as he described the recent events in the state as acts of intimidation.
