Sh*ckwave In PDP! Gov Umo Eno Admits Taking Strategic Advice From APC Leaders

Speaking during an interdenominational thanksgiving service on Sunday at the International Christian Worship Centre in Uyo, held to mark his second year in office, the governor highlighted the critical role such guidance has played in sustaining peace and stability in the state.

Amid ongoing speculation about a possible defection from the PDP to the APC, Governor Eno praised the support he has received across party lines. “I have benefited from wise counsel not only from the PDP but also from the APC, IPAC, and other prominent leaders in our state. We are all important stakeholders in the Akwa Ibom project, and I am deeply grateful for this positive collaboration,” he stated.

The governor emphasized that maintaining unity and peace remains his administration’s most significant achievement since taking office. “No meaningful progress would have been possible without peace. That harmony has been the bedrock of our development so far,” he said.

He called on citizens to continue working with his government to preserve the peace and unity that define Akwa Ibom. “This is our shared joy and the gift we offer Nigeria — the proof that peace is attainable when we choose to respect and accommodate one another.”

Governor Eno also paid tribute to past leaders of the state, expressing gratitude for their contributions. He praised Obong Victor Attah for championing the onshore-offshore oil dichotomy resolution, Senator Godswill Akpabio for his infrastructural legacy, and Deacon Udom Emmanuel for his visionary efforts — urging continued respect and support for all leaders who have shaped the state’s journey.
