The Edo State Government has congratulated Senate President Godswill Akpabio on his 62nd birthday,

praising his distinguished career and commitment to promoting good governance and the rule of law. According to Fred Itua, Chief Press Secretary to Governor Monday Okpehbolo, Akpabio's achievements as Governor of Akwa Ibom State and his historic election to the Executive Committee of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) are notable highlights of his career .

Akpabio's leadership has been instrumental in fostering a collaborative working relationship between the National Assembly and the Executive Arm of Government, which has benefited the country since their inauguration in June last year. Governor Okpebholo wishes Akpabio many more years of service to humanity, marked by good health and continued dedication to the nation .

It's worth noting that Akpabio has been in the news for other reasons as well. There have been allegations of him taking N800 million from the Senate account for his birthday celebration, as well as demanding donations from Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) ¹. However, these allegations have not been confirmed, and it's essential to rely on credible sources for accurate information.
