Recall that Godswill Akpabio has been endorsed by the All Progressives Congress and the president-elect, Bola Tinubu. Due to the endorsement, claims that the National Assembly under Godswill Akpabio will be rubber stamp, has been making the rounds.

However, while receiving Godswill Akpabio and a group of senators-elect on Tuesday, Wike said for the interest of the country, it is necessary for the next senate president and the president-elect to work together.

Wike said “This is the time for me to support him, he supported me when I wanted to be Rivers state governor. If we want this country to truly move forward from where we are today, I see nothing wrong in the ruling party (APC) picking who it thinks can work with the president-elect, (Bola Tinubu) as senate president of the 10th assembly.”
