Two aspirants from the three Senatorial districts of Akwa Ibom state have boycotted the primary elections of the Peoples Democratic Party.

In a statement he signed on Monday in Uyo, Inyangeyen who is the immediate past Chief of Staff to Governor Udom Emmanuel, said himself, his supporters and agents will not participate in the nomination exercise as the delegates to be used are not recognised by the laws of the land. “A court of first instance which is equally of competent jurisdiction has made a pronouncement on the matter which was correctly and legally interpreted to mean that statutory delegates are yet to be approved for purposes of nominating candidates for the general election, to this extent and in obedience to court orders.

“The refusal of myself and members of my team to participate is not a withdrawal from the race. I am still so much in the race to serve my people of Akwa Ibom South Senatorial District.
