The Speaker of the Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly, Barr. Onofiok Luke, has been pictured sharing some nice moments with the APC gubernatorial flag-bearer, Obong Nsima Ekere, during a child dedication service at Winners Chapel in Uyo Sunday.

The pictures of the duo, popularly perceived as being bitter political rivals, surfaced on Nsima Ekere’s twitter handle showing the two having apparent harmless conversion at where they were closely seated at the front row.
Dr. Amadu Attai, the governorship running mate to Obong Ekere, was also captured in the shot as he seemed to be concentrating on activities at the podium.
Ekere later took to his twitter handle, tweeting the pictures that have so far received many hits from his followers.
Captioning the pictures, the tweet reads: “*POLITICS ASIDE*With Rt Honourable Onofiok Luke and APC Stakeholders this morning at Winners Chapel, Uyo for the dedication of Mr. Michael Etim James' (aka MacJoe) daughter.”

It still remains unclear whether the 6th Assembly speaker, Onofiok Luke and Obong Nsima Ekere, the NDDC Managing Director, had had any political agreement ahead of the 2019 general elections.
Meanwhile, it should be noted that Barr. Onofiok Luke vies for a seat of Etinan Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives in next year’s election.
