* Eyiboh


Former lawmaker, Hon Eseme Eyiboh predicts that  2023 is the year  Akwa Ibomites would return to its famed culture of  'Akwa Ibom' solidarity and common brotherhood regardless of the uncircumcised umbrage of the destitutes of democratic culture

Eyiboh, former House of Representatives member representing Eket Federal Constituency while  sharing his thoughts on what lies ahead for the State in 2023 maintains that zoning as a mechanism to address perceived injustice, has gone full circle and the second phase could start from any zone.

 "The justice of the Akwa Ibom governorship trophy has gone full circle of its first course of zoning at the end of the current tenure, 2019-2023", he affirmed

Eyiboh however disagrees with proponents who wants the zoning policy to begin from the zone where it started in 1999, proposing that a fresh zoning arrangement begins from ground zero

According to the former legislator,   the second course of the zoning policy begins from ground zero in 2023. "Any senatorial district that the governorship emerges from in a free and unrestricted process in 2023 shalll begin the second cycle of the Akwa  Ibom state governorship zoning", he declared

Summing up, he maintained that sovereignty belongs to the people, and not the birth right of any community or individual
