Press Release
Re: Gratitude for your marvelous support to Akwa Ibom APC
The
attention of the former Senate Minority Leader and Senator representing
Akwa Ibom North West Senatorial District, Senator Godswill Akpabio, CON
has been drawn to a forged letter purportedly written by him to the
Chief of Staff to the President titled: “Gratitude for your marvelous
support to Akwa Ibom APC” and making the rounds in the social media.
We
wish to state categorically that the letter never emanated from the
Distinguished Senator Godswill Akpabio. It is a poorly crafted piece of
forgery and the figment of the imagination of the authors.
A
cursory look at the letter reveals the fakeness of the contents. For
instance, the complimentary closing line reads, “Yours sincerely” and
“Yours faithfully” in one letter!
With an imminent defeat in the
coming polls, we have always known that desperate politicians will be up
to some tricks to gain some political mileage, but we never imagined
they could go to the extent of committing forgery just to malign an
opponent.
Fortunately, the perpetrators are not ghosts. We have
alerted security agencies to be on the look out for those who have
either published or shared the sham document for an invitation to shed
more light on its source.
Once again, we wish to assure the
teeming supporters of Senator Godswill Akpabio and the All Progressives
Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom State and beyond to remain focused,
steadfast and unshaken in their commitment to resoundingly vote for
President Muhammadu Buhari and all candidates of the party in the coming
elections.
According to the immortal words of the great Spanish
writer, Miguel de Cervantes, “truth will rise above falsehood as oil
above water.”

Special Assistant (Media) to
Senator Godswill Akpabio
