Channels TV Kicked Out: Gov Eno Reacts Furiously To Leaked Footage Scandal

Akwa Ibom State Governor, Umo Eno, has reportedly ordered the eviction of Channels Television’s correspondent and cameraman from the Government House following the circulation of a viral defection video.

The controversy stems from a video aired by Channels Television on Friday, in which Governor Eno was seen instructing his commissioners to either join him in defecting to the All Progressives Congress (APC) or resign from their positions.

In the video, the governor stated:

“It’s no longer news that I’m switching parties. If you’re unaware, then I don’t know what else you know. I’ve been informed that some of you don’t intend to follow me— and that’s fine. You’re absolutely free not to, but you won’t remain in my cabinet.”

“So, be ready to resign the day I announce my defection. As appointees, your loyalty should be to me. You can’t serve in my cabinet while engaging in anti-party activities. This isn’t a threat; it’s simply the reality. I won’t plead with anyone to come along.”

While Channels Television’s reporter, Chris Moffat, has yet to publicly address the development, a source within the government house confirmed to Daily Post that the governor was enraged over the leaked footage.

The source said:

“Yes, it’s true. That’s exactly what happened here at the Government House. The eviction is directly tied to the viral video that emerged on Friday.”
