“This is the time to show the strength of our party at the ward level which is the most significant structure of our party. We all draw strength from the ward structure because that is where the party registration is done. No matter what we do, at the end of the day, we will return to the ward.”

“The ward Chairmen are the real stakeholders of the party at the grassroot level. We cannot joke with that structure of the party because that structure holds the stake for the party to survive”, he said..

Announcing the readiness of the Party in Akwa Ibom State to commence issuance of new party membership cards, Rt. Hon. Akpan informed that it is compulsory for all aspirants of PDP to get the new cards issued by the Sen. Iyorchia Ayu led national leadership of the party.

“The party has introduced new membership cards straight from the national for all members of our great party. Every aspirant in this party must show the new national membership card, or stand disqualified.”

Akpan encouraged various leaders and stakeholders of the party to take steps to strengthen the party at the ward level, noting that only collective efforts can strengthen the party.
