Alleged Certificate Scandal: Barr Ini Ekpo Proves Bernard Udoh Wrong ...Accuses Bernard Of Fake FSLC ...I Don't Have Forged Certificate - Bernard
Following series of allegations in various media platforms by a
former Member representing Ikot Abasi/Eastern Obolo/Mkpat Enin Federal
Constituency in the National Assembly, Mr. Bernard Udoh, that a front
line lawyer in Akwa Ibom State, Barr. Ini Ekpo, did not have (and does
have) prerequisite secondary school subjects in WAEC which he used to
gain entry into the University to study Law, Barr. Ini Ekpo has refuted
the claims and challenged Bernard Udoh to prove his allegation with
concrete evidence.
Addressing newsmen in his Uyo residence over the matter at the weekend, Barr. Ini Ekpo rose proudly in defense of his credentials at all levels of his education and discountenanced the allegation as total rubbish and a calculated attempt by Mr. Bernard Udoh to tarnish his highly celebrated reputation.
Describing Bernard's attitude as sheer wickedness and an ingrained act of malice and envy typical of him, Barrister Ekpo however wondered why Bernard Udoh refused to change his old ways, even when he (Bernard Udoh) is the one who as a matter of fact should be worried about the fake First School Leaving Certificate he has been parading.
"Nothing can make Bernard does what does against me than malice even when he knows fully well that I went to school and got all my credentials on merit", Barr. Ekpo stated with conviction.
Recounting how long he has been tolerating Mr. Bernard Udoh and how close and brotherly he has been to him in spite of his gross misgivings over many years, the renowned legal practitioner further emphasized, "The good thing is that I attended all my studies here in Akwa Ibom State and my school mates and teachers are still alive and reachable for any investigations by anybody. Therefore when Bernard Udoh behaves this way, it becomes even more obvious that he is jealous of my consistent and hard-fought attainments in life and does not want to see me grow. This is shocking and inhuman in all ramifications".
Displaying and presenting the originals of all his academic qualifications to the journalists in his house, including his First School Certificate, WAEC, University of Cross River State's Certificate upon graduation from the Faculty Law and a corresponding certificate from Law School and admission into the Nigerian BAR as a gualified lawyer, etc, the furious Barr. Ini Ekpo once again challenged Bernard Udoh to come out with any evidence to the contrary or bury his face forever in shame and ignomy.
It was however further gathered that another reason why Bernard Udoh has resorted to this "bring down strategy" may not be unconnected with the fact that he has seen a popular choice challenger and most qualified aspirant in Barr. Ini Ekpo in the just concluded primaries for Ikot Abasi/Eastern Obolo/MkpatEnin Federal Constituency where both of them hail from.
In Barr. Ekpo's observation, Mr. Bernard Udoh, who has spent three consecutive terms representing the Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, simply does not want to quit but wants to play god by seeking in vain to hoodwink and have everyone under his armpit, an attempt that has not been possible for him.
His words, "Although he has performed woefully as evidenced by the absence of any populist initiative for the Federal Constituency in the 12 years he has served, he still wants to be the only cock to crow, dictating for others and arrogating to himself the role of a godfather. He therefore sees any rising voice of hope and excellence in the constituency as a threat to his poor performance'.
Rather turning the waves against Mr. Bernard Udoh, Barrister Ekpo alleged that Bernard Udoh is instead the one who must be worried because he walks around with a fake First School Leaving Certificate.
In advancement of his allegation, he emphasized that, otherwise there would have been no reason for Mr. Bernard Udoh to only have photocopies of the first school leaving certificate, with a forged signature and a date different from those within his batch. "I challenge him to come forward and deny or exonerate himself from this fact. Where is the original copy of his Primary Six certificate that he claims to have", the Barrister contended and saw Bernard's antics as a false alarm to distract public attention from his unscrupulousness.
Nevertheless, as to what practical and lawful steps he is likely to take in response to the recent allegation by Mr. Udoh against him, Barr. Ini Ekpo disclosed that because he has had to tolerate him for too long by today, he may have to institute a legal case of character assassination and blackmail against Mr. Bernard Udoh, to prove to him that patience has limits and he has a name he greatly cherishes and must protect from defamation by anybody.

It would be recalled that
Hon. Bernard Udoh, while addressing newsmen in Uyo had maintained that
all his credentials from Primary to Secondary Education were genuine and
accussed Barr Ini Ekpo of not having requisite entry qualification to
read Law in the University.
