EKO HOT BLOG reports that the ex-Cross River Governor Mr. Liyel Imoke said in Calabar yesterday that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would reclaim the state from the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the 2023 general election.

He told reporters at the end of a PDP caucus meeting that the party’s confidence stemmed from the fact that it had never lost election in the state

Sitting Governor Ben Ayade won the governorship seat on the platform of the PDP, but defected to the APC on May 20, 2021

Imoke said the caucus meeting was summoned to strategise for the 2023 elections.

“We have never lost election in Cross River since 1999 when Nigeria returned to democracy; a defection is not a loss.

“In 2023, we do not intend to lose; that was why the caucus meeting was convened to rub minds, share opinions and strategise towards winning the 2023 general election.
