He said: "I have never seen a child being greater than his father. I put all of them there and they cannot be greater than me. Or has any of you benefitted from inter-ministerial jobs? Please don’t think about PDP again because its dead. Since the day I left PDP, the party died. Who was PDP? I was PDP. So, since the day I left, the party died instantaneously. On the 8th of August 2018, that was the day PDP died.
‘’APC will win in Akwa Ibom flat and hands down. Nobody can rig us out in APC. They are busying recruiting thugs, I advise you to collect the money and eat but don’t do what they are telling you to do’’.
Also, the governorship candidate of APC in the state, Obong Nsima Ekere, was grateful for the support he has so far from the people of Akwa Ibom.
