Just in: Supreme Court declares Akpabio APC senatorial candidate for A’Ibom North-West

Former Minister of Niger Delta, Godswill Akpabio, is the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for Akwa Ibom North-West senatorial district, the Supreme Court has declared.

Akpabio, ex-Akwa Ibom State governor,  was in the race for the party’s presidential ticket but dropped his bid for another candidate.

Prior to the APC presidential primary, Udom Ekpoudom, former deputy inspector-general of police (DIG), won the APC primary for Akwa Ibom north-west senatorial district.
