WHAT! Governor Akpabio Demands Wants N200m Salary & Mansion After Leaving Governor's Office

Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom State has, according to a report on PremiumTimes, allegedly initiated a law to enable him pocket a whooping N200 million in annual pay after his tenure expires. Mr. Akpabio is allegedly also demanding other benefits including a new house, brand new cars, furniture and luxurious living for the rest of his life.


The controversial law, which was exclusively obtained by PREMIUM TIMES, is known as Akwa Ibom State Governors and Deputy Governors Pension Bill 2014. If passed by the assembly, the bill would repeal the Governors and Deputy Governors Pension Law, 2006. To underscore the urgency of the proposed law, the Governor has allegedly indicated that he wanted it passed hurriedly so it could come into force on June 1.
