Guber Aspirant Canvasses Strategy For Election
A marine engineer and gubernatorial aspirant, Mr Okpo Onofiok, from Eket Senatorial District of Akwa Ibom State, has called for political strategies that would put the area in a strong position to secure some advantages in the 2015 governorship election.
Okpo urged politicians from the other senatorial districts in the state with gubernatorial ambitions to relegate the idea as embarking on electioneering campaigns now could compound the political tension in the state.
He spoke against the backdrop of opposition to zoning, which he alleged to emanate from other parts of the senatorial districts of the state, namely, Uyo and Ikot Ekpene.
Okpo, who hails from Udung Uko Local Government Area of the state, recently declared his intention to vie for the governorship seat in 2015.
According to him, after widely consulting with politicians across the state, he has been assured that this was the turn of Oron people of Eket senatorial district to produce the next governor.
The gubernatorial aspirant urged Governor Godswill Akpabio to use the remaining years of his administration to transform the Oron block as he has done in other areas and communities of the state.
