The lawmaker has been criticised for giving out such an empowerment and for poor performance. A constituent from Odukpani LGA who spoke with GRASSROOT REPORTERS on condition of anonymity said:

“It’s a big shame that such empowerment could be given by the lawmaker. These people get billions for constituency projects but nothing to show for it.”

In 2015, he was elected into the Federal House of Representatives to represent Calabar Munincipal/Odukpani Constituency and was re-elected in 2019.
