“I Didn’t Know PDP Was Still In Existence”- Akpabio Reacts After PDP Candidate Wins Election

• Senate President Godswill Akpabio commented on the recent election results where a PDP candidate emerged victorious.
• His remarks have generated significant reactions from various stakeholders.
• The statement reflects the political dynamics and tensions within the current electoral landscape.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has sparked reactions after making a remark following the emergence of a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate as winner in a recent election.

Reacting to the outcome, Akpabio was quoted as saying:

“I didn’t know the PDP was still in existence.”

The comment, delivered in a tone many interpreted as political sarcasm, immediately gained attention and triggered mixed reactions from Nigerians across social media and political circles.

Supporters of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) saw the remark as light-hearted political banter, while critics argued that it was dismissive of the opposition party’s relevance in Nigeria’s democratic space.

The PDP, one of Nigeria’s major political parties, has continued to contest elections and maintain a presence across different states despite facing significant political setbacks in recent years.

Akpabio’s statement has since added fuel to ongoing political discussions between supporters of both parties, with many debating whether the comment was a joke or a subtle jab at the opposition.
