The former Akwa Ibom state governor said LP produced the senators to save Nigeria, not the party.
He called on senators-elects to support him to stabilize the polity, 10th NASS, and move Nigeria forward.
Akpanio, who visited in the company of other top APC senators like Senator Ali Ndume, Gov. Dave Umahi and Senator Barau Jubril, said he and his team visited to say thank you for producing good children.
He called on LP senators-elect and others to come together and support the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to give good leadership to Nigeria.
According to Akpabio, Nigeria has too many issues that can only be solved by being together.
Senator Ndume disclosed that some LP senators-elect had endorsed Akpabio as Senate President, hence, the reason for the visit and to seek the support of other senators yet to do so.
