“On Sept. 18, the APC in Akwa Ibom will formally begin local government elections campaigns at the Township Stadium, Ikot Ekpene.
“The president has taken the bold step to approve autonomy for local governments in the country, so we shall participate in the poll.
“We are confident that we are going to contest, we are also going to win the elections in all the 31 local government areas.
“We have the number to win. We want to display our majority, our strength, and our capacity in the local government elections,” he said.
