The former senator representing Adamawa North Senatorial District, Elisha Abbo, has apologised for accusing the senate president, Godswill Akpabio, of plotting his removal.
Recall that the senator was sacked by the Court of Appeal declaring the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Amos Yohanna, as the winner of the February 25, 2023 senatorial election.
In an interview on Arise Television on Wednesday, Abbo apologised to the senate president.
“I have to say this with all sense of humility and responsibility that the press release we issued yesterday was premature and based on the available information at our disposal yesterday.
“As of today, we have discovered a lot of things, and yesterday night I had a discussion with the Senate President, and I am convinced that he is not involved,” he said.
He quoted Akpabio: “I swear by my mother’s grave that I’m not involved; I don’t even know that you’re in court.”
Abbo further stated: “For a number three citizen to come up to tell me that he has sworn on his mother’s grave, a woman that he loves so much, a woman who brought him up after he lost his father at the age of six, I don’t see a reason why he would lie.”
