The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has secured the All Progressives Congress (APC) senatorial ticket for Akwa Ibom North-West ahead of the 2027 general elections, winning convincingly across all local government areas in the district.
According to official results, Akpabio recorded strong margins across the 10 LGAs, with thousands of votes in each area, including over 19,000 votes in Oruk Anam and more than 17,000 in Ukanafun. The total number of accredited voters stood at over 121,000, reflecting a highly participatory exercise across the district.
In Imo State, Governor Hope Uzodimma also clinched the APC senatorial ticket for Imo West after a landslide victory over former Governor Rochas Okorocha, securing over 230,000 votes across the Orlu zone’s local government areas.
Former Senate President Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan emerged as the consensus APC candidate for Yobe North, with party leaders describing his selection as a unifying decision aimed at strengthening internal cohesion in the state chapter of the party.
In Abia State, Erondu Erondu won the APC senatorial primary for Abia South, defeating several contenders including Nyerere Anyim, Paul Ikonne, and Blessing Nwagba. He reportedly secured victories across all six local government areas in the district.
The outcomes reflect a mix of dominant victories, consensus arrangements, and competitive primaries across different states as the APC continues its internal preparations ahead of the 2027 elections.
