In a letter to INEC, the APC listed three constituencies across the country including Cross River North whose ticket bearers have withdrawn their candidacies to contest the 2023:election on its platform which warrants the conduct of fresh primaries to elect new flag bearers to replace them.

The State party Chairman, Barrister Alphonsus Eba has instructed ward and local government executives along with party leaders to conduct ward congresses in the five local government areas that form the district and elect delegates to vote in the primary to formally adopt the governor.
