MD/CEO of The Akpanke Foundation, Mr. Peter Akpanke has again emerged winner of PDP Obudu/Bekwarra/Obanliku Federal Constituency, House of Representatives primary election.
Akpanke emerged Victorious after polling a total votes of 60 against his closest rival, Prince Kjay Agba who polled 33 votes out of the 93 delegates in the Federal Constituency.
Akpanke had earlier won the first primary election held in Calabar but the election was cancelled by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party, because it was held outside the Federal Constituency. After Akpanke’s first victory, one of the aspirants, Mr. Ella Ushie left the PDP leaving Akpanke, and Kjay to contest the rerun.
The rerun primary election was held at Top View Hotel in Bekwarra LGA.
