Oniofiok Luke representing Nsit Ubium State Constituency had aspired to the position of speaker of the Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly on the inauguration of the legislative body last June, but powerful forces in the state stopped him.
Among those said to have stood against him at that time was the immediate past governor of the state and now Senate Minority leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio.
