Eyibo advanced that “What is going on in the National Assembly is very democratic. It has given credence to the fact that the current administration is operating on the platform of democracy.
“When the president called the senators-elect and members of the house of representatives-elect it was to simply appeal to all of them and they saw reason with him.
“Out of all the people aspiring will not be able to stand side-by-side with Akpabio.
