The immediate past Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Udom Emmanuel, has returned home after honouring an invitation by the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
This was made known in a press statement issued by Barrister Stephen Abia.
He stated: “In what was purely a routine affair, the immediate past Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Udom Emmanuel, CON, honoured the invitation by the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). This he did, seamlessly in his undaunted spirit of patriotism and sense of responsibility.
Abia stated that such an invitation was normal and should not be construed as a conviction.
According to the statement he was not detained, it must be emphasized, as was reported yesterday by a section of the press. As a statesman, Mr. Udom Emmanuel is open to interactions within the confines of the law as one who has nothing to hide dreads no query.”
