Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has declared that no sane person would want to defect to the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Akpabio made this known on Thursday during the screening of Joash Amupitan as Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
His remark followed a disagreement with the Senator representing Bayelsa West, Seriake Dickson, who had said that nobody contested the results of the last presidential election conducted in Ghana.
Akpabio responded that former President Goodluck Jonathan also did not contest the results of the 2015 presidential election conducted by INEC, adding that the electoral body had continued to improve over the years.
Senator Dickson, however, reminded Akpabio that the 2015 election was conducted under a PDP-led administration.
Reacting, Akpabio said no sane human being wants to go to the PDP because the party has been turned into shred, adding that he would not want the Senate to give the incoming INEC Chairman a clue because joining the party meant going into litigation.
He said, “At that time, PDP was not turned into shreds, but there is no human being that is sane today that can even join such a platform.”
