James Iniama says Akpabio's era as governor was the 'most unsafe in the history of the oil-rich state'.

has denied that there were state-sponsored killings and kidnappings in the state during his administration

“From 2007, there is no street in Akwa Ibom State that was safe anymore for residents. There was no business place that was safe for business, the thing that became popular was kidnapping, assassinations, rape. So, that wasn’t anymore a society to live in, and for a wise person the best thing to do is get out of that environment.

Mr Iniama also said, “You know the number of people who were kidnapped, you know how many of our mothers were murdered and stripped on the streets of Akwa Ibom State? It is something of which this state should be ashamed, we should go to God in repentance. Mr Iniama said he had filed a suit against the Akwa Ibom State Government which was finally settled out of court ”because of the intervention of Mr Akpabio’s successor”.
