Akwa Ibom Governor, Godswill Akpabio Gives Out N40m Bullet Proof Car To Friend

Akwa Ibom’s Governor Godswill Akpabio just gave out a big money gift, officially acquired – for private purposes.

‪The man reputed for expending a chunk of taxpayers money on musician, Tuface and Annie’s wedding last year just perfected a similar deed.

‪The governor recently gifted a Mercedes Benz bullet proof car to an ex-Naval Chief of Northern extraction.

‪The value of the car is pegged at N40m.

‪The acquisition was perfected via government process via a letter issued by a Mrs. Stella Usah of the office of Secretary to the State Government.

The letter which gave away purchase and beneficiary, is said bear reference number SSG/ AKS/S119/ S vol 11/243 and addressed the former Naval Chief Vice Admiral Dele Joseph Ezeoba .

‪The Mercedes Benz is described as E350 with Engine Number A2760150201591 and has chassis number WDD2120591A905842.

‪The beneficiary is tagged ‘the governor’s friend’‪

The large spending state helmsman gave the Tuface and his wife, Annie two brand new Toyota Prado SUVs and bankrolled an all-expense paid trip for 29 ‘delegates’ from the state to attend the white wedding of the couple in Dubai.

‪He also hosted a lavish state dinner in honour of the couple and promised to rehabilitate the Eket-Ibeno Road ahead of their child dedication.

‪The flamboyant spender equally attracted controversy for doling out N1m each to visiting party men to his office for lunch.
