Senate President Godswill Akpabio has said the All Progressives Congress, APC, is leading due to the leadership style of President Bola Tinubu.

Akpabio said Tinubu’s leadership style is strengthening the APC while reducing the influence of the opposition in Nigeria.

He made this known at the APC 8th National Convention and 4th Elective Convention in Abuja, on Friday.

Akpabio said: “APC is showing the way. I want to say that, as a result of the good governance brought by Mr. President, there are now only two political parties in Nigeria: APC and others. APC and others.

“Mr. President, since you came on board as President, this is your first major convention. The last one was when you became the candidate of our great party.

“I thank you because what is attracting all of us and all Nigerians to the APC today is good governance.

“From removing subsidies, to harmonising the idea of multiple exchange rates, and to your reforms in the education sector, you have brought about progress that now gives students greater opportunities for national education.

“You have brought about an agricultural revolution. Your policies are real. Now people can travel from Lagos all the way to Ibadan. Now people can travel from Lagos to Calabar.

“As I speak now, I have taken a ride through the coastal roads that we contemplated 50 years ago in the Niger Delta region.”
