Shortly after their inauguration, the committee of the All Progressives Congress’s Progressive People’s Resolution APC-PPR, has commenced plans to unseat the ruling People’s Democratic Party PDP, in Ikot Abasi Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State.
During a strategic meeting of the group last weekend, the Coordinator in Ikot Abasi Federal Constituency, John Ayang, expressed APC-PPR’s readiness to consolidate its stronghold by ensuring that it unseat the PDP.
At the meeting which was held at Ikot Abasi LGA, Ayang explained that the “PDP’s gross underperformance in the area is providing a leeway for APC to take over in 2027.”
He also lauded the role of President Bola Ahmad Tinubu and the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio as well as that of the National Leader of the group and Stalwart of the APC in Ikot Abasi Federal Constituency, Engr. Ubong Idemudo, in piloting the affairs of the party.
According to him, “the unwavering commitment of Idemudo to the ideals of the APC portrays him as a linchpin in advancing the party’s agenda at both national, state, and local levels.
“Engr. Idemudo’s tireless efforts and significant contributions to the APC-PPR and the broader APC family are worthy of note His dedication and strategic acumen were instrumental in advancing the group’s objectives, aligning perfectly with the progressive agenda championed by leaders like Tinubu, Akpabio, and Victor Antai.
“This group is committed to providing the necessary population to challenge and triumph against the ruling Peoples Democratic Party in Akwa Ibom State during the 2027 general elections.
“The PDP’s gross underperformance in Ikot Abasi Federal Constituency is a development that is laying credence to the soon-to-come era of positive change.”
Expressing the party’s resolve to strengthen its grassroots presence and mobilize support for future electoral victories, Ayang added that plans were on to inaugurate APC-PPR executive committees at the local government area, wards and unit levels.
