Don't be surprised at all, it is all about personal interest and nothing else. He's simply positioning himself for bigger role in 2019. If he can play his cards well and deliver Akwa-Ibom, he may emerge as the next Senate president. It's really looking good for him since the south east that ordinarily should produce the next Senate president are more interested in being vice president to Atiku or any of the PDP candidates.

Overall, this is a very big catch for the APC. It evens out whatever gains PDP might have made from Saraki's defection. Akpabio is also a well known deep pocket, that's an added advantage to APC.

Overall, PDP is the net gainer with the defections. 3govs 15 senators and 33 reps including Senate president is just too massive!

It is not about quantity but quality. Kwara for example cannot return more than 500k votes. Akwa Ibom delivered over one million votes the last time out. I will choose Akpabio over Saraki any day.

Akpabio is making a big mistake of moving to apc, his popularity in akwas ibom state will be affected by this move.
As it stands now udom will be d new leader of PDP in akwa ibom state. The worst is the reason for the defection

two decamping news on front page this morning! Transfer news everywhere! Abeg when the transfer window go close?

Nbote:
It's their season... The Political transfer window is still open.... If we say APC are hypocrites now their fans will start crying.. D same PDP members U have always maintained are thieves and looters and corrupt are d same ones U celebrate wen dey join ur APC?

I tell you what a shame

Defect to apc and be exonerated of all your crimes

Ofunaofu:
It's all about politics and personal interests.
If he moves to the APC, he will return to the Senate in 2019 and he will be made the Senate president.
I think that will be part of the bargain to lure him to dump the PDP

he can never be senate President once bitten twice shy

dPriv:
Akpabio of all people, I am surprised.

Not only you.. It's a tsunami.. I think the Man is visibly angry and revelation will come up soon

All of a sudden, y'all supporting my party (APC).Bad news for IPOB

Lolz well Ameachi did worst today Rivers is still pdp... chima of enugu its less dan 2years he defected who hears him in enugu a former governor ooo... he will only play a spoiler for APC and after he defects back to pdp we will hear its not good for our democracy... lolz... no be today

Hmmm. Is it that some are playing checkers while others are playing chess?

PDP will be further limited if Akpabio defects to APC,demystifying them as a party that can not keep itself intact.
However you look at it,more politicians are going to leave PDP especially in the North.
If an Akpabio can join a Buhari,PDP is further dead.

Akpabio can not and will not deliver akwa ibom to APC just safe dis

Did anyone notice Saraki in picture the man never smiles wen buhari is around

mmb:
IPOBs and PDP will never visit this thread to avoid High blood pressure

he never went to apc with a true heart ...lol him run comot soon

All for political survival yet some people will come to this platform to abuse each other. In all this jumping around where has the problems of poor Nigeria has been mentioned. Has the income of the senators changed since Shehu Sanni revelations? Has anybody been punished for wrong doing within and outside the the parties? The youth should think.

seborrhic:
A party that claims to fight corruption is literarily throwing a rock star like party for one of the most corrupt governors this present democratic dispensation or even any at that,has produced,after getting assurances of no-prosecution if he joins APC.
You are even here gloating over it instead of hiding your head in shame and throwing up.
Lots of you on both political divide are real sick and repugnant.

Wait!

Was it Pdp that jailed Nyame and Dariye?

You lie sir.most of those senators and defectors are electoral liabilities except kwankwaso and saraki.can nazif,misau,shittu deliver their states or zones for pdp? Its not quality not quantity.the votes from akpabio's district is equal to total kwara votes.

SarakiBukola:
I am amused because Akpabio is a known Saraki boy.

He's a mole sent to destroy APC from within. This is just a long-term strategy.

I hope he doesn't get put forward for Senate President...APC is desperate and that's why they keep making mistakes

Saraki boy? Stop consoling yourself man.i know your pained.

All of a sudden akpabio is not corrupt
Afonjas now love him
He is not a thief
Can many of u see that afonjas are the lovers of corruption

They see nothing wrong with this

Let me share something I wrote about them

Nigeria is not a country but an evil forest
A few years back we all spoke about the seaports in the Niger delta and the old eastern region
We asked why is everything passing through Lagos
Oil oh na Lagos
Cement oh na Lagos
Container oh na Lagos
And of course what will the people of the south west tell you.
Tell your governors
Ask them what are they doing with your allocations
If e pain u
Leave Lagos
Go to your fillage the Facebook agberos screamed.

After the civil war there was a blanket policy to frustrate the then Midwest and old eastern region based on their role played in the war.
Thats why many people began to say I am not Igbo
If u had ten million in ur account with one big pen from awolowo ur account will read twenty pounds
We had people in the Niger delta who were igbos before begin to deny their igboness
Many removed some letters from their names
Many renamed their villages
Some even tried so hard to undo their history so as to escape the pen of the evil man awolowo

Today we have many I am not Igbo tribe running like headless chickens in the old eastern regions and the Niger delta
Its was OK
As the slaves began to deny their fathers so they can at least be given bread crumbs
The sea was blocked
Nothing goes in
Till date shipping companies charge war zone charge if you don't want ur container in Lagos and want it moved further east of Lagos

But what changed
Why the sudden shout from ambode
When this blanket policy was made
Nigeria was about twenty to fifty million people
Today we are two hundred million
Lagos can't take it
Ambode knows the problem
Instead of the federal govt to listen to him
They came with a PPP and awarded a contract to DANGOTE
Build the road to toll gate
Cosmetic surgery solution
We are watching
Ambode no ask us again to ask our governors
No one is saying what are your reps doing in the national assembly
What is ur senator doing
Na only to chop money dem sabi
Now ambode directed it to the real culprit
The Fulani lead federal system of Nigeria
Person wey carry pikin toy lift am up make pikin no fit reach am to play
When hand tire am
Him go drop am
One Nigeria indeed
The evil forest

EFCC must have presented him with a thick file. He's looking out for his own interest.

Zlatimi:
Akpabio can not and will not deliver akwa ibom to APC just safe dis

Oga,stop that nonsense.majority of ibomites love akpabio despite the party he belongs to.me and you know he controls akwa ibom and installed udom singlehandely.his defection will secure 40% votes fo buhari

BUT AKPABIO CAREER IN AKWA IBOM IS DEAD WITH THIS SINGULAR MOVE.


HE HAS NO ELECTORAL VALUE WATSOEVA.

You are a shallow thinker.

We are waiting for him to defect. We shall mount a sensitization campaign to finish whatever is left of the ruse of fighting corruption by this propagandist government.

Fighting corruption indeed .....


When the ,accused joins your party and becomes innocent ......


Using efcc or anti graft agencies or state aparatus as a political tool is the highest level of corruption in any government



Politics in nigeria is just about personal intrest and what who controls ...

Non of them has a strategical plannings in their agenda to move nigeria forward

SARAKI REALLY DEALT WITH THEIR CONE HEAD, FOR THEM TO THINK AKWA IBOM DEFECT WITH AKPABIO.

IT IS LIKE OJUKWU SON DEFECTING TO APC.

DO U THINK NDIIGBO DEFECT WITH HIM?

AKPABIO POLITICAL CAREER DIES THE DAY HE JOIN APC.

THANK GOD HE IS NOT THE GOV.

Zlatimi:
Lolz well Ameachi did worst today Rivers is still pdp... chima of enugu its less dan 2years he defected who hears him in enugu a former governor ooo... he will only play a spoiler for APC and after he defects back to pdp we will hear its not good for our democracy... lolz... no be today

Apc has a stronghold in rivers.amaechi while in pdp never had total control of rivers,it was shared and rivers people had to deliver for goodluck.same thing with chime in enugu.goodluck reduced his influence and gave more power to ekweremmadu.moreover he joined apc after the polls.but akpabio has total control in akwa ibom the same saraki and tinubu has.he has a cultlike followership.he will give nothing less than 40% to bubu

I'm still marvel at why some people think Saraki, kwankwaso and others who defected recently is any loss to the APC.. Because non of this politician will win their state for the PDP, then only won the last time with the influence of Buhari and the APC. I'm from kwara state and I can tell you that SARAKI is dead in kwara, long buried in Offa.
