Corruption allegations he has faced EFCC investigations, but no court conviction has been recorded. Allegations do not equal guilt, but they do shape public perception.
Why 240 million Nigerians feel frustrated this frustration reflects a broader national sentiment:
Long-term politicians dominate leadership
240 million Nigerians youths and graduates struggle to enter politics
Rule changes often protect incumbents
Corruption allegations are common but rarely resolved
Leadership does not reflect Nigeria’s 240 million young population
These concerns are real and widely shared.
When did Akpabio start politics?
He entered public service in 2002 as a commissioner in Akwa Ibom State:
Commissioner for Petroleum & Natural Resources (2002–2003)
Commissioner for Local Government & Chieftaincy Affairs (2004–2005)
Commissioner for Lands & Housing (2005–2006)
He became Governor in 2007, then Senator in 2015, Minister in 2019, and Senate President in 2023.
So he has been in politics for about 24 years.
