Last week, Governor Godswill Akpabio met with the thirty six chapter chairmen of the party and ended the meeting with an assignment on them to go and consider three persons from each of the federal constituencies. The Governor at the meeting told the chapter Chairmen that he has concluded plans to handover the Hiltop mansion to somebody from Eket senatorial district and that there is no going back on it.
Akpabio is said to have told the chapter Chairmen that they should comb the entire of Eket federal constituency and bring out one person, get to Oron federal constituency and get one and proceed to Ikot Abasi Federal Constituency and get one person to make it three.
A chapter chairman who attended that meeting hinted that Godswill Akpabio says he intends to compare the three persons that will be presented to him and then chose which one of them will suit his leadership of the state.
But pundits hold that Akpabio’s determination to ask the chapter chairmen to present someone to them is only political. The newspaper gathered that some political gladiators have begun to solicit votes for their prospective aspirants. The battle, it was observed has pitched some aspirants against others and there have been a war of wits, intrigues and politricks.
