Former Minority Leader of the Senate and Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio, has pulled out of the planned Akwa Ibom North East senatorial re-run election.

In a letter addressed to the national chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole and dated 2nd of December, 2019, Akpabio said as Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, a huge responsibility had been placed on him.

He said he couldn’t abandon a critical assignment placed on him by President Muhammadu Buhari in pursuit of a re-run election

He urged the party to write the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), in line with Sections 33 and 35 of the Electoral Act, 2010, and submit a replacement to run in his place.

Werey..mad man

Wisdom is profitable to direct .. akpabio Don run leave defeat

E for run na, why him come dey fear?

Person wey dem dey look for way to discharge.

If na me be President Kyari, I go tell am say him must finish wetin him start oh or else I go fire am.

Correct
Make he deh there

Cabals no like him again

best decision,as minister of niger Delta,the money to steal na die,who senator help?

Hmmmm

Best decision though cos the rerun is not sure for him

Finally Akpabio don borrow sense......May be APC rigging machine told him to abort mission

Hahahaha.

I thought zombies said the election will be a walkover for Akpabio?

Man has seen he can't write his fictitious result again and had to respect himself.

A bird at hand is always better than elephant in the bush.

PDP 2 v -2 APC

If he contested and failed....no Minister for him

If he contested and won...no Minister for him

If he backed down... Yes Minister for him

In Jenifas voice, "use your brain and crack"

Best choice.

Well.. he who runs now lives to fight another day... that's a sensible thing to do .

JAPAAAA.... cos the odds are stacked against you.

He just jumped a political trap that would have led to his political irrelevance and oblivion. There was no way he would have won judging from the current margin and the possible turnout of registered voters in his Essien Udim LGA.

Good decision.
Let him continue with the NDDC reform and bring to light those that have turned the commission to ATM, though he's not a saint.

I prefer him in the commission to the senate.

Buhari no dey sack now!

He would have committed a political suicide should he have fallen for that rerun bait.

7 up for you.
Man wey Sabi!

Baba no wan collect 2-0

You no won knocked down like your boss actor. Follow your master way...
