Akpabio As Senate President Will Benefit Nigeria, N-Delta, Says Obriki

Niger Delta Activist, Hon. Tamuno George Obriki, has assured that the emergence of Senator Godswill Akpabio as Senate President of the tenth National Assembly will benefit the country and the oil rich Niger Delta region.

Obriki also appreciated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the National Working Committee of APC for ensuring that Akpabio emerged Senate President.

The 2023 House of Representatives candidate of All Progressives Congress APC for Bomadi and Patani Federal Constituency, gave the assurance on Tuesday, while reacting to the election of Akpabio as Senate President and Senator Barau Jibrin as the Deputy Senate President.

Obriki, an ally of Akpabio said ” This is historic, we are grateful to God that South South has produced the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, and this will certainly strengthen Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration”

He further commended majority of the Senators that voted for Akpabio to emerge as Senate President, adding that Akpabio is well positioned to deliver on the new higher assignment for the interest of the country.

It will be recalled that Obriki had appealed to the leadership of APC to zone the Senate President to South South, which was later done by the party.
