Udom Gabriel Emmanuel, an associate of
Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom State
on Monday evening emerged the Peoples
Democratic Party’s candidate for next year’s
governorship poll in the state.
Emmanuel, who recently resigned as the
Secretary to the state government, polled 1201,
to beat other distant rivals at the Akwa Ibom
International Stadium, recently christened the
Nest of Champions.
The results were expected as the state PDP
recently adopted the winner as its candidate.
His closest rivals, Helen Esuene had 12 votes,
while Etteh obulobu scored 38 in a contest
which was largely peaceful.
