NGPolitical stakeholders in Akwa Ibom State have raised concerns about Marshall Ekpo, the son of Petroleum Resources Minister Mr. Ekperikpe Ekpo, who has secured the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) ticket to contest in the Abak/Etim Ekpo/Ika federal constituency. Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the region allege that Ekpo's candidacy, potentially backed by his father's influence, could negatively impact the ruling party's chances in the upcoming elections.
Bias read (Center): The article presents perspectives from both APC and NDC stakeholders without overtly favoring either side. It reports allegations against the minister's son without taking a stance on their validity, maintaining neutrality in its framing.
