A chieftain of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, and the former Senate Minority Leader, Godswill
Akpabio, has reacted to report of him planning to defect back to the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP.
Akpabio, who was a former
Governor of Akwa Ibom, had last year announced his resignation as Minority
Leader of the Red Chamber and defected to the ruling APC.
However, there have been
speculations that the lawmaker was planning to return to the PDP.
Reacting to the report, the
lawmaker insisted that he was comfortable in the fold of the ruling party.
Speaking with the Nation, Akpabio
also said he bears no grudge or bitterness against those who have betrayed him
politically.
“People don’t understand that
life is full of ups and downs. Life is not a straight line.
“If it is a straight line, it
means you are dead. Even if you have a temporary setback, that shouldn’t make
you exude bitterness or hate anybody.
“I can’t go back to the PDP. Why
are you people listening to rumour? Why will I go back to the PDP when I am already
getting entrenched in the APC?
“I am excited that the President
won the election all over the country,” Akpabio said.
