“A youngster as young as 16 years old getting connected with another person is not something that I, or the association I do not represent, would support. We have a member involved in this really unfortunate situation, but I don’t want to comment further on it “explained he.
According to Rollas, Martha Udom Emmanuel, the first lady of Akwa Ibom State, is handling the issue as part of her Family Empowerment and Youth Re-Orientation Path Initiative.
He separated the Guild from the heinous deed.
Amstrong is currently the governor of Akwa Ibom State’s special assistant, Udom Emmanuel.
