Is that what you people want?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Is that somebody who wishes well for the Akwa Ibom people? How can you<br \/>\nsay you want to come and kill 6.2 million people because of politics? How<br \/>\nmany people did Hitler kill? The only thing that they have for you is that<br \/>\nthey want to come and kill Akwa Ibom people like Hitler. Is that politics?<br \/>\nIs that development? Is that industry? Is that what they are supposed to<br \/>\ndo?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So let&#8217;s burn them. Whoever is wishing Akwa Ibom a political situation of<br \/>\n2019, that Akwa Ibom will be like the invasion of Hitler, we say Holy<br \/>\nGhost fire. Whoever is buying guns trying to kill our children, meanwhile<br \/>\nthey\u2019ve gone to hide their own children abroad, and they want to come and<br \/>\nkill our own, we say Holy Ghost fire.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Udom&#8217;s declaration was attended by Nyesom Wike, Governor of Rivers State;<br \/>\nOkezie Ikpeazu, Governor of Abia State and Ramalan Yero, a former Governor<br \/>\nof Kaduna State, among others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"m2601198835953776588\" class=\"mail-message\">\n<div class=\"mail-message-header spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"conversation-footer\" class=\"spacer\"><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor.
