The Akwa Ibom state government has debunked reports of stampede and deaths during the opening ceremony of the ultra modern Akwa Ibom International Stadium in Uyo on Friday Nov 7. The State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Mr. Aniekan Umanah who was present at the event says the report making the rounds on the internet was complete falsehood;
“Though there were cases of exhaustion and tiredness due to the massive crowd that turned out to part of the grand occasion, no death was recorded throughout the duration of the event that lasted for about for about seven hours,” he said.
