By Adeleye Kunle
The Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly has reinstated Mr Aniekpon Ekpo, the suspended Chairman of Mkpat Enin Local Government Council.
This came during the plenary following the adoption of the report of the ad-hoc committee led by Aniefiok Dennis that investigated the matter.
Ekpo was suspended in January 2022 over alleged official misconduct after several petitions signed by 10 councillors from Mkpa Enin Legislative Council.
The Speaker of the house, Mr Aniekan Bassey while considering the committee’s report adopted all its recommendations including the reinstatement of the suspended chairman.
The committee in its recommendation asked the council chairman to take deliberate steps in ensuring that all the pending issues relating to the assets of the local government are resolved satisfactorily adding that he should separate his personal dealings from the administration of the council
