Be under no illusion Akpabio defecting to APC is a bigger blow to PDp than losing Saraki is to APC. Akpabio will do more damge to PDP in Akwa Ibom than Saraki can do to APC in Kwara and Akpabio doesnt even need to win Akwa Ibom for Buhari, nobody expects him to, all he needs to do is steal some PDP votes and put them in the APC column and win his own seat. 3 Likes |

A good hunt by APC even though he isn't stronger than saraki, it's still a good start. The game of politics. 3 Likes |

agarawu23: Akwa Ibom has 1m votes, Kwara has only 400k, it is easier for a defector to steal 100-200k votes in Akwa ibom that it is in Kwara. 1 Like |

Butterflyle0: No two situations are exactly the same bro. it is wrong to compare Akpabio with Saraki. A right comparison would be Akpabio and Kwankwanso. Akpabio didn't give PDP 900,000 votes in 2019. GEJ is a son of the soil and even with an APC governor, like we saw in Edo and Rivers, Jonathan was bound to win. In Rivers despite the presence of Amaechi as Sitting governor, Jonathan still got 1.4m votes against Buhari 60,000. Remember PDP had Shekarau on GEJ's side in Kano but Shekarau couldn't swing votes for Jonathan. In 2019 the tide would change. With both parties fielding northern Muslims , Akpabio can only swing his senatorial district to APC,, and don't expect the see 300,000 voters from his district because of apathy remember a son of the soil is not on the ballot this time. The APC is badly hit by these defections because the PDP has made major in road into the north and would be fielding an Hausa Muslim. Kano votes would be divided , same for Sokoto. Buhari can't get that 1.9m votes he got from Kano last time. All PDP needs to checkmate Akpabio is to have someone with the Character of Wike as thier campaign manager. Akpabio is a grassroots politician, but he's not a fighter like the Wike's 1 Like 1 Share |

PRESS RELEASED Akwa Ibom deputy governor debunk rumour of resignation The attention of the Office of the Deputy Governor of Akwa Ibom State has been drawn to certain rumours and misrepresentations in a section of the media to the effect that the Deputy Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Mr. Moses F. Ekpo, MFR, has resigned from office. The reports particularly from the online community further make allusions to the effect that the Deputy Governor has also defected from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. Given the temperament of the times and the implications of such innuendos, we are constrained to categorically state as follows: (i) There is no iota of truth in the story making the rounds. (ii)The purported report is therefore nothing but a poorly concocted piece of a malicious hatchet job and a pack of lies, and should be appropriately ignored. (iii)It is instructive to note that currently, His Excellency, the Deputy Governor is representing the State Governor, Mr. Udom Emmanuel as Special Guest of Honour at the 2018 International Convention of Ati Annang holding in New York, United States of America, and is yet to return to the state. (iv) In his reaction to the rumour from New York on phone today, the Deputy Governor said “I have not resigned. I have no reason whatsoever to resign or jump ship from a government that is both responsive and performing optimally, while giving practical meaning to democratic dividends for the people of Akwa Ibom. I cannot, and will not jump ship” (v) To that extent, he has called on Akwa Ibom people, both at home and in the Diaspora, as well as the PDP family in the state to remain resolute and committed to support the Governor, Mr. Udom Emmanuel, to take Akwa Ibom to the next level.
