If Akpabio Dumps PDP For APC, He Will Sin No More - Omokri


The purported rumour about the defection of Senate minority leader, Chief Godswill Akpabio from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) is still a subject of discourse.

Another PDP member has added his own perspective to the possible defection.

Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan, has said the two term governor of Akwa Ibom state will have all his sins forgiven, if he decamps to the ruling party.

Reacting to Senator Akpabio’s visit to President Muhammadu Buhari on Sunday, August 5, Omokri said in a tweet, that even the Economic and Financial Crimes Comission (EFCC), will “pass over” him.

“Behold Akpabio, all your sins have been forgiven. When @officialEFCC sees the broom, EFCC will Passover!” he wrote.

Akpabio, who won his seat in the Senate on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is believed to be set to decamp to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

The lawmaker’s meeting with Buhari, came after the President’s Special Assistant on Prosecution, Okoi Obono-Obla’s post on Facebook on Saturday night.

Obono-Obla stated that Akpabio will be received into APC on Thursday by Acting President Yemi Osinbajo and other top leaders of the party at a rally in Ikot Ekpene, Akwa Ibom State.
