Senator Akpabio, who was governor for eight years and senate minority leader on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, also said that his former party has nothing to campaign with except criticism.
He said that the APC Presidential Campaign Council inaugural meeting at the Banquet Hall, Presidential Villa, Abuja was to strategize on how to execute the campaign, adding that the achievements of President Mugammadu Buhari will be the focal point in their campaigns.
He said, “I will say that APC is very poised not just to undertake very smooth and scintillating and enjoyable campaign but also very poised to win the next election.
“We have very few weeks to the general elections, first the Presidential election and we are quite ready. As you are aware, so far so good, we are running on the basis of our first term performance.
“The achievements of Mr. President are all there for people to see and I think the entire country is quite excited quite unlike our colleagues in the PDP who do not seem to have anything except to criticize, attempt to run campaigns of calumny and false accusations against us in the APC.
“Today (Thursday) we are meeting to restrategize and conclude, dot the i’s and cross the t’s in the campaign structure so that we can come out with not just a formidable campaigns across the country but also sensitive our people in terms of voter education, we are ready for it.”
