Posted on June 4, 2025June 4, 2025 By Admin No Comments on C’River House Of Reps Member Resigns From PDP, Set To Join APC
Akpanke

Peter Akpanke, who represents the Obudu/Bekwarra/Obanliku Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has resigned his membership of the party.

Akpanke in a letter addressed to the Chairman, PDP, Bendi Ward 1, Obanliku LGA, Cross River State, pointed to the internal crisis in the PDP, as his reason for resigning from the party. While he did not clearly say in his resignation letter that he was heading to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, political events in the last couple of weeks were a clear signpost to Akpanke’s resignation.

At press time, late Tuesday evening, Akpanke was unavailable for comments.
