Akwa Ibom Denies Udom's EFCC Report Allegations

Akwa Ibom Denies Udom's EFCC Report Allegations

On September 13, 2026, the Akwa Ibom State Government refuted claims made by Senator John Udoedehe, the governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), that Governor Umo Eno conspired to report former Governor Udom Emmanuel to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Udoedehe alleged that the EFCC seized Emmanuel's house in Victoria Island, Lagos, based on a report from Eno.

In response, Information Commissioner Aniekan Umanah issued a statement declaring the allegations as false, reckless, and without foundation, aimed at inciting public unrest. Umanah emphasized that Governor Eno has never reported anyone to the EFCC and has shown respect for his predecessors, including retaining aides from Emmanuel's administration.

The statement aimed to clarify the situation and counter the misinformation circulating on social media.
