Akpabio is a very straight forward guy. He is not a betrayer like some other people. I learnt he even informed Saraki of his decison to defect. Those are the kind of people one can trust. He belongs to the APC

You don't know Akpabio at all. cheesy grin

But bro do u think that the senate majority lead will fold his arms watch akpabio take a seat he has been eyeing

I don't think akpabio can change the structure which disentangle favour south south for the Senate president
This is a give and take calculation. The Senate leader has nothing to loose if Akpabio emerges as the next SP. APC is trying to shift the SP position to either the South South or the South East. This is to cajole more Legislatures to the APC.

What Akpabio wants, Akpabio gets. If his eyes are on the Senate president seat, be assured he will get it. The guy plays a smart game and has a heavy weight backing that can never be seen with the eyes. cheesy

His successor is likely to decamp and follow his boss.

Nope, they are at crossroads currently. He feels Udom has betrayed him hence, one of
his main reasons for decamping. He will play a dirty game to try and install a more favourable candidate to his cause, vis a viz covering the crazy looting in Akwa Ibom during his tenure. If he's given the party structure in the state, Nsima can never emerge the APC candidate.

Let's hope the ND/SS PDP put its house in order. Is APC really concerned about Nigerdelta/SS development/people? My observation was confirmed recently that the APC govt has decided to pick Akwa Ibom/Cross River as their partners/collaborators in the 'settlement' of the South South so Akpabio issue fits in.
lol Akpabio have been looking for the senate president since, that was why he decamped to Apc. Akpabio that was one of the politicians that support reelection of udom emmanuel of pdp. well let us keep our fingers crossed.

If Akpabio is joining the APC for his desire to become a Senate president, so be it. The APC is a free party, everybody can aspire to become what ever he wishes, with no restriction.
Akpabio is a wise man.

Nigerians are wiser now.
Why tinubu wan impose gbajamiala as Senate President?

If Akpabio moves to APC, he will certainly work against the APC during the presidential election and support the PDP !

He is only doing this NOW to escape the EFCC !

The use of EFCC to threaten politicians into joining APC will still fail.

Politicians that fall for such should know they just have a temporary reprieve as the day of reckoning will still come

Akpabio should have defended his innocence than succumb to threat of EFCC unless he joined APC.

since when Niger delta people have been supporting pdp. so it is the decamping of akpabio that will now convince niger delta people to votes for Apc baa. i can see one of the nairaland politician here. not difficult to sight them here. besides in south west zone, not yoruba people go with tinubu Apc party. alot of people have left Apc. there are still AD, ADC and other parties too..

APC should not make that mistake again of handing a PDP new comer the party structure. The party structure should remain with Nsima Ekere NDDC boss.

Unless they want another betrayal like Saraki, Tambuwal and Dogara after 2019 election. The best they could do for Akpabio is to give him ticket back to senate and a major stakeholder.
Akpabio is a big fish he can't be in APC and be taking orders from Nsima.

Wetin the President said can be easily misinterpreted. No be wetin he say, but the thing wey him do. 2nd Niger Bridge has moved from Paper display wey PDP leave am to actual site construction. Many Federal roads abandoned by PDP are receiving attention and under construction.
