In a shocking revelation that has stirred political discussions across Nigeria, Pat Akpabio, sister-in-law to the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has accused him of being connected to a series of unresolved killings in Akwa Ibom State.
The allegations surfaced in a viral video shared on social media, where Pat Akpabio expressed strong emotions over what she described as injustices and atrocities committed during and after Akpabio’s tenure as governor.
The Accusation
In the video, she stated:
> “For all the people you had killed when you were governor of Akwa Ibom, and those you people have killed now that you are in the Senate — it will never be well with you.”
The statement has since drawn wide attention, largely because of the family relationship between the accuser and the Senate President, giving the claims a deeply personal and political dimension.
Public and Political Reactions
As of the time of this report, Senator Godswill Akpabio has not issued any official response regarding the allegations.
Social media, however, has erupted with mixed reactions. While some Nigerians commended Pat Akpabio’s courage, others warned against spreading unverified information that could fuel political tension.
Political observers note that such allegations, coming from within the family, could heighten intra-party tension within the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) stronghold in Akwa Ibom State.
Context and Responsibility
These claims remain unverified and should be treated as allegations pending any official investigation or statement from the parties involved.
Analysts have emphasized the importance of responsible reporting and verification, especially in a politically charged environment.
In Conclusion
Whether this development leads to further investigations or remains a flashpoint in political discourse, one thing is certain — the controversy has reignited public scrutiny of the past administration in Akwa Ibom State.
Benny News Hub will continue to monitor this story and provide updates as more credible information becomes available.
