Dear Editor,

PDP Convention: How Govs Akpabio & Goje stole the show

If you watched the proceedings at the just concluded PDP Convention through AIT live transmission, you would agree that the President was not the star attraction.  The star attractions were governors of Akwa Ibom and Gombe States.

One was wondering if the two governors paid the AIT for that superlative focus on them most of the time of the live coverage of the event or could it be mother luck.

They took shine off the President and other participants as they were most intermittently focused on. They could be aiming at the future Presidency (President and Vice-President) of Nigeria on the platform of the PDP, considering how the country is normally directed by a few individuals.
