He said insecurity would end two weeks after the election and urged Nigerians to trust President Tinubu’s efforts. He also mocked rival parties’ internal divisions, indirectly referring to the former Labour Party candidate’s departure. Akpabio praised the NRS leadership and highlighted the new three-tower complex as a sign of progress in modernizing revenue collection.
