From Okey Sampson, Umuahia

Former Senate Minority Leader, Chief Enyinnaya Abaribe, has made a U-turn in his quest to govern Abia State and is believed to be considering re-election to the Senate on the platform of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).

Feelers from the senator’s camp, who dumped the main opposition party, and also resigned as the Senate Minority Leader, indicated that Abaribe had already obtained APGA form for that purpose.

This will pitch the senator against Ikpeazu who had also picked the PDP senatorial ticket for Abia South zone.
