10TH NASS: APC Plans To Zone Senate President to South East May Frustrate Akpabio’s Ambition

Strong indication has emerged Senator Godswill Akpabio may have dropped his ambition to run for Senate President. Akpabio has decided to pursue a ministerial appointment in the cabinet of the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Akpabio’s decision to drop his Senate presidential ambition was informed by the decision of the party to zone the slot to the South East.

A source said Akpabio has since informed his loyalists to tone down their campaign for his senate presidential ambition in the media to soften the ground to achieve his ministerial reappointment in Tinubu’s cabinet.

“To avoid losing out Akpabio has since begun reaching out to Tinubu personally and through his allies to return to any of the plum ministries which appears to be more favourable to former Governor when compared to the Senate President position.”
