Godswill Akpabio

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has blamed the failure of some National Assembly members to secure return tickets during political party primaries on a lack of proper grassroots preparation, revealing that many of his colleagues are currently battling hypertension over their political survival.

Akpabio made this known on Wednesday in Abuja during the inauguration of the All Progressives Congress APC National Campaign Council for the upcoming June 20, 2026, Ekiti State Governorship Election.

The Senate President, who urged lawmakers to stop relying on his intervention after losing elections on the ground, maintained that party supremacy must be upheld.
