At an event held at the APC state secretariat located along Marian road in Calabar, the erstwhile lawmaker who represented the central senatorial district in the red chambers of the national assembly for twelve years said “I came to reciprocate the various courtesy calls paid to me by the Chapter Chairmen of the APC from the ward level to the national body of the party and to tell you that I want to formally join the APC family.
