Fearless Reports published that some members of the APC who spoke in anonymity have criticised the decision of Enoh to pick Okon who is from the same ethnic stock, Ejagam with him as his running mate.
Reacting to the report in a WhatsApp group, Okon said that he's only tagged Ejagam because he was picked as running mate.
He noted that the criticism was unreasonably created and a mischief while warning that those promoting the issue should be mindful of the long term consequences.
Okon quarrelled that those criticising his nomination have failed to recognize that four times House of Representative member who recently won PDP ticket to seek fifth term, Rt. Hon. Essien Ayi is also from Okoyong community where he hails from but have been representing three core Efiks local governments.
He said in a short reaction that, "Yes, Ekpo Okon is from Okoyong and he is tagged Ejagam because of being a running mate. Yet how many of these people would identify Essien Ayi, who also is from Okoyong, as an Ejagam man. Essien Ayi has been representing 3 core Efik LGAs in the National Assembly. It is easy to unreasonably create mischief. I wish that these people are mindful of the long term consequences"
