Godswill Akpabio, a Senate President aspirant for the 10th National Assembly has cried out.

He asked Nigerians to pray for him, saying he’s facing a serious war over his decision to contest the Senate President position.

Akpabio stated this during his speech when he met with the APC Non-Serving Senators Group in Abuja on Tuesday.

He also promised that the 10th Senate would collaborate with the President-elect, Bola Tinubu to pay off the nation’s debts.

“I am excited that God is keeping all of you alive. This is a family and I am very proud to belong to this family.

“I want to also appeal that you not only endorse us but support us with your prayers because what I am seeing out there is that it is a war. But I see it as a storm in a teacup,” Akpabio said.

The APC has zoned the Senate Presidency to Akpabio, Deputy Senate President Barau Jibrin (Kano), House of Representatives Speaker Abass Tajudeen (Kaduna) and Deputy Speaker Ben Kalu (Abia).
