Austin Ibok, the Grandmaster of Deception: A Hypocrite’s Guide to Political Survival
By Ekpeyong Ita
I have exercised great restraint in ignoring Austin Ibok’s repeated displays of ignorance and absurdity. However, it is now necessary to expose the farcical nature of his self-importance.
Austin Ibok is the perfect example of a political nonentity who thrives on the fleeting attention he garners on Meta—a classic “Facebook politician.” But beyond the charade, I have just two key points for Austin to reflect on.
First, his relentless exhibition of ignorance is truly laughable. Anyone with a basic understanding of life abroad knows that during winter, people do not sit on their balconies, nor do they leave their windows open due to the harsh cold. Yet, the ever-primitive Austin claims to write his rants from a balcony. Perhaps he can enlighten us on which part of the world allows for such an anomaly in winter. Or is he in Dubai? If so, I highly doubt he can afford a home with a balcony there.
More concerning is the question of his immigration status. With the ongoing global crackdown on illegal migrants, one can only hope that Austin’s wife managed to secure proper legal documents for him. We certainly do not want him back to Calabar, we had grown weary of his endless dubious dealings in Cross River State. It is no secret that he fled Nigeria after allegedly defrauding Atiku’s campaign organization during the 2023 presidential election.
To clear all doubts, I challenge Austin Ibok to publicly publish his visa and prove that he is indeed a legal migrant. If he refuses, it only confirms the suspicions surrounding his questionable status abroad.
In conclusion, I strongly advise Austin to focus on his cleaning job and leave serious discussions to those genuinely committed to the welfare of the masses. He lacks the credibility, moral standing, and intellectual capacity to speak on matters of community growth and development.
