A political movement, the senator Godswill Akpabio for common good (SGACG), has launched a campaign in support of the minister of Niger Delta affairs.
The group launched the campaign on Sunday, during the presentation of a magazine, ‘The National Interest’, at an event which held in Kano.
Speaking at the event, Jibril Tafuda, convener of SGACG, said the campaign by the group is not for the 2023 elections, but to “enlighten the public” about the minister.
“Our current effort is a volunteer initiative by like-minded individuals who share a belief in good governance and one Nigeria. It is also an effort to tell the world the truth about the most misunderstood politician in Nigeria today,” Tafuda said.

“This organisation, senator Godswill Akpabio for common good, is for public education and not for 2023 campaigns. Therefore, the magazine is out to let the world know who senator Godswill Obot Akpabio really is, and what he stands for.
“I would like to use this opportunity to tell you about a man whose generosity has reached every nook and corner of Nigeria; someone who is generous and kind to everyone. He likes to help people, irrespective of where they come from or what religion or tribe they belong to. Above all, he doesn’t expect anything in return. This is the man that built mosques and churches all over Nigeria and sponsored many to the holy land.
“This is the man that sponsored many to further their education both within Nigeria and abroad. This is the man that does not differentiate between the high and low class in his relationship with people. I must admit here that there is no politician today that loves Nigerians like Senator Akpabio. I’m sure many of you here will testify to that. Therefore, he deserves our appreciation and support any time.”
