Hehehe...Senate Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, has disowned some media
publications about his purported posters campaigning for the presidency
in 2019.
Media Assistant to the former governor of Akwa Ibom State, Mr Anietie
Ekong, in a statement on behalf of his principal urged Nigerians to
disregard any of such publications, stressing that they were the
handiwork of mischief makers, who wanted to create wrong impression in
some quarters.
Ekong said Akpabio had no ambition of contesting for the presidency in 2019 and was not behind such campaigns.
“It is instructive that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which he
(Akpabio) belongs to, has zoned the presidency to the North by 2019.
“The South-South has had its shot at the presidency through Dr
Goodluck Jonathan, who handed over to President Muhammadu Buhari barely
one year ago. And it is politically impracticable in the present Nigeria
to expect another South- South man to aspire to succeed President
Buari.
“He should not be distracted by a phantom campaign as such ambition
only exist in the imagination of the mischief-makers,” Ekong said.
