Godswill Akpabio, Senator representing Akwa Ibom North West at the Senate, has advised state governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to surrender their respective states to President Muhammadu Buhari.

Mr Akpabio gave the advise on Friday at the presidential campaign flag-off of the president in Uyo, capital of Akwa Ibom State.

Mr Buhari who is seeking a second term in office is the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC).

The lawmaker, a former governor of the state had governed the state on the platform of the PDP. He went to the Senate still on the ticket of the opposition party before he defected to the APC in August.

The former governor said the 2019 election is all about integrity which he said the president has. He also declared the state as the South-South capital of the ruling party.

“We thank the national leadership of our party for choosing Akwa-Ibom state to flag off the 2019 presidential campaign,” Akpabio said at the rally.

“Uyo is now the capital of APC in the south-south. We are taking over from southern Nigeria.

“The 2019 election is all about integrity versus others. Mr. President has the integrity to continue in office. He has completed many projects he met on ground, initiating new ones and that is why we are going to run the APC presidential election in this country on the basis of performance.

“Other states, like the PDP states that have done nothing should surrender even before the election. They should surrender before February,” the lawmaker advised.

During his defection in August, Akpabio had said during the 2015 election, his heart was yearning for the president even though he belonged to the then ruling PDP.

If those who owe us nothing gave us nothing, how poor we would be.
20,019 Sai Atiku

If integrity still means what I know it to mean.

And am sure it has not changed.

The word should not be used with Buhari in same sentence.

I WANT BUHARI TO WIN BUT I WANT ATIKU TO GET SOME VOTES FOR THE INTEREST OF OUR DEMOCRACY.

THOUGH SOMEONE LIKE ATIKU SHOULD BE IN JAIL AND SOMEONE LIKE RIBADU SHOULD BE CONTESTING STRONGLY AGAINST BABA4+4

Las Las Akpabio has ran mad, someone should take him to the nearest physiatrist before he enters market.

Akpabio could have done well to tell PDP states the APC states to emulate...

As it stands, even the least PDP state is doing better than the best APC state.. that which they claimed as the best governor was not even given a 2nd term..

For someone like Atiku to be walking free in Nigeria under the regime of a corruption fighter president, IT SHOWS THAT EITHER ATIKU IS NOT CORRUPT, OR THE DULLARD IS NOT FIGHTING CORRUPTION.
For someone like Atiku to attempt getting a visa to America, but the dullard instructed Lie Muhammed to call America and beg them not to grant Atiku the visa, IT SHOWS THAT ATIKU DOESN'T HAVE ANY CASE WITH AMERICA, AND HE MIGHT EVEN BE ENDORSED BY TRUMP.
For someone like Atiku to donate massively to buhari's campaign in 2015, and was hailed by both the dullard and his party, IT SHOWS THAT THE DULLARD IS A BENEFICIARY OF CORRUPTION AND STOLEN FUNDS, HENCE THE DULLARD SHOULD ALSO BE IN JAIL.
For someone like Atiku to be labeled a corrupt man when he has never been invited or investigated or indicted by EFCC, and no one has any evidence against him, IT SHOWS THAT THE DULLARD, WHO ONCE CLAIMED ABACHA DIDN'T STEAL, DESPITE ALL THE LOOTS OF ABACHA THAT HAS BEEN RECOVERED, SHOULD BE STONED PUBLICLY BY NIGERIANS.

GOD PUNISH THE DULLARD AND HIS ZOMBIES!

And Akpabio can openly talk about integrity? What a country we are in!

Why is there so much militancy and terrorism in everything associated with APC

We all will partner with President Buhari to take Nigeria to Greatness. 4+4 all the way.

If elections were to be conducted in my dream, i'll still vote Wike, not even Buhari with his federal might can change that.

Who still takes that thief and political thug called Akpabio serious? The lout is just trying to save face after looting the state almost to extinction.

Hahahahaha,at gun point ba....

akpabio why?

Nonsense !

One should be jailed if the system was working.......

What gift do we then give to coup plotters?

Integrity have suffered...

Akpabio.........your fall will be very loud....las las....you go wear POP

"...The lawmaker, a former governor of the state had governed the state on the platform of the PDP. He went to the Senate still on the ticket of the opposition party before he defected to the APC in August...."

You can never join the APC and reason normal again. It's a cult.

Isoright

So that you can keep robbing Nigerians for another r years, right? What a comedian. These people think that those who want Buhari to go are only online. 2019 can't come soon enough.

Next level will be in Duara.

Mad man

Nah police and thieves?......

Nigeria is slowly turning into Somalia.
No evidence of democracy

By the words they use.

There will be no election next year.

Don't take my word for it.

Buhari will dump akpabio after the election.

ogun kii you there. bastard

I think one of the criteria for joining APC is not using ones brain anymore?

How can they turn a vibrant Akpabio to a dullard spewing trash like this

Ok

Maybe "integrity now have another meaning. SMH
