The good governance support group for Godswill Akpabio says the former minister of Niger Delta affairs is the best candidate for the position of senate president. The All Progressives Congress
June 12, 2023 8:07 PMThe good governance support group for Godswill Akpabio says the former minister of Niger Delta affairs is the best candidate for the position of senate president.
However, Abdulaziz Yari, a former governor of Zamfara, and Orji Uzor Kalu, ex-senate chief whip, have insisted on contesting for the position despite their party’s stance.Speaking at a press conference on Monday, John Harry, national co-coordinator of the group, said Akpabio represents competence which is why they are supporting him.
“In truth, and only the truth, our bias is borne of the fact that Godswill Obot Akpabio represents competence, capacity and carriage. This is not a forum to read the citation of this great Akwa Ibom son. His indelible landmark dotted on the political skies of Akwa Ibom state serves as eloquent testimony.
