APC factional chairman mocks Akpabio over presidential primary election
Following his withdrawal from the party’s presidential primary, former minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio, has been mocked by factional chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom State, Austin Ekanem.
Recall that on Tuesday June 7, Akpabio stepped down and beckoned on delegates in Akwa Ibom to vote for the former Lagos State Governor, Bola Tinubu.
Reacting on Wednesday June 8, Ekanem said the former governor of Akwa Ibom State should have withdrawn from the exercise, instead of stepping down.
He said;
“When you don’t have any delegate, you withdraw; you only step down with delegates to support another aspirant.”
Though delegates from Akwa Ibom state were accredited for the primary, they did not vote due to a court order served on the party accreditation officers on Tuesday evening, June 7.
