The National Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council, Sen. Godswill Akpabio, hasraised the alarm, accusing some APC leaders in Akwa Ibom State of working for the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, ahead of the 2023 general election.
Akpabio, a former Minister Niger Delta Affairs, said the APC leaders would declare their support for the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, in the day and endorse Atiku at night.
Akpanio raised this alarm when he received the leadership of 250 presidential support groups based in Akwa Ibom State at Ikot Ekpene Local Government Area of the state on Friday.
“I have heard of several other groups being set up within the party by other party leaders. I am not against it, so long as they are being set up in support of the party and our presidential candidate. I will personally support and attend their meetings anytime I am around in the state.
“What I will not support is a situation where some leaders of the party in the state would be shouting Asiwaju in the day and PDP (Atiku) in the night.
“I am very much aware of a particular person in our party, who has publicly endorsed the governorship candidate of the PDP and its senatorial candidate, but would rush down to Uyo to say I am the chairman of the rally for Tinubu. Which Tinubu are you talking about?” Akpabio was quoted as saying in a statement issued on Saturday by his Chief Press Secretary, Jackson Udom.
