Senator Godswill Akpabio has triumphed over his bid to participate in the 2023 general elections as the flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for Akwa-Ibom North-West Senatorial District.

This followed the affirmation of his nomination on Friday by the Supreme Court.

The apex court in a judgment by a five-member panel led by Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun unanimously allowed the appeal filed by the APC.
