Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi and the former Governor of Akwa Ibom State and former minority leader of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio met over their political difference.

The two party chieftains met on Sunday, April 14, 2019, to iron out their perceived political differences which may marked a new chapter of cooperation within the APC family.

The meeting, which was at the instance of Senator Godwill Akpabio, was brokered by two chieftains of the Party, Alhaji Nasiru Danu, (the Dan Amarna of Dutse) and Mr. Festus Keyamo, SAN.

Alhaji Danu, who is also a Chieftain of the party from the South-South region.was one of the Directors of Logistics of the APC Presidential Campaign Council and a long-time ally of President Muhammadu Buhari while Mr. Keyamo was the Director of Strategic Communications of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.

The meeting which took place at the private residence of Alhaji Nasiru Danu in the Asokoro region of Abuja lasted several hours where the leaders frankly and honestly talked about their various disagreements from their days as Governors in PDP and in the then Nigerian Governors’ Forum.

They also discussed and analysed the performance of the party in the South-South region in the just-concluded election and identified areas where things went wrong and how to improve those areas in future.
