Professor Peter Ogban was jailed for rigging the senatorial election for Senator Godswill Akpabio. Nigerians are saying: since the Court of Appeal in Nigeria upheld the conviction of Professor Peter Ogban, it means that Senator Godswill Akpabio should vacate his senatorial seat at the National Assembly of Nigeria. Nigerians are also saying that starting from when the judgment was pronounced, Senator Godswill Akpabio should not be directing the affairs of the Senate. He should step down. Somehow, it is likely that the case would go up to the Supreme Court for a final verdict, but for now, Senator Godswill Akpabio must step aside. Again, it is a pity and shameful how the politicians in Nigeria are using the services of the educated ones in the country to rig their way into various offices. Honestly, the time has come for politicians to stop this rigging madness in the country because such practice is bringing setbacks to Nigeria.
