Annang Nation Sanctions Mrs. Patience Ibanga Akpabio

The highest traditional rulers council in Annang Land of Akwa Ibom State, Afe Nkuku Annang, has thrown its full weight to stand in support of the position of the Greater Akpabio Family that Mrs Patience Ibanga Akpabio is no longer a recognised wife of the Family.

Accordingly, the council has affirmed the position of the Greater Akpabio Family, that Mrs Patience Akpabio is henceforth excommunicated and ostracised from being a recognised wife of the Greater Akpabio Family and by extension she is no longer a recognised wife of Annang Land for her continued disrespect to her husbands family and Annang leaders in general.

Rising from an enlarged meeting on Saturday, November 1, 2025, the Afe Nkuku Annang resolved that “no Annang person should invite Mrs Patience Ibanga to any event or ceremony organised in Annang Land.”

The traditional council ruled that “She has become a taboo and a source of curse and any Annang person who deals with her does so at his or her own peril.”

The body expressed disgust that Mrs. Patience Ibanga Akpabio have abused all avenues convened to resolve whatever grievances between her and the Senate President, as well as the wife.

It noted that “in a meeting held on Monday, the 20th of October 2025, Afe Nkuku Annang being disturbed and concerned by the continuous streaming of insults and vituperation by Mrs. Patience Ibanga Akpabio, on our illustrious Son, the Senate President and his wife on social media, took a decision to invite Mrs Patience Ibanga Akpabio to appear before the traditional fathers of Annang Land within seven (7) days to state the cause of her grievances and the continuous invective on the SP to enable a consideration, mediation and possible reconciliation.

“The seven (7) days expired without Mrs Ibanga Akpabio responding to the invitation. The Royal Fathers extended the invitation with an additional three (3) days of grace. Still she failed to respond, but rather increased and expanded her abuses to enclose the whole of her husband’s family, the greater Akpabio Family.”

The Afe Nkuku Annang therefore reasoned at the meeting of the Royal fathers on Saturday that Mrs Patience has no genuine case nor cause for her continuous insults, invective and vituperation against the SP, wife and members of the greater Akpabio Family, hence her inability to appear and explain the reason for her satanic actions.

The resolution was endorsed by the following royal fathers:
