He said it is being handled by the First Lady of the state, Martha Udom Emmanuel through her Family Empowerment and Youth Re-Orientation Path Initiative.
Rollas added that the organization will not allow such a crime.
“To get involved with a child as young as 16yrs is not something I and the association I represent, would stand for.

Armstrong, until his arrest was a Special Assistant to the Akwa Ibom State Governor, Udom Emmanuel.
