Governor Umo Eno's Defection Sparks Controversy in Akwa Ibom PDP Secretariat

Governor Umo Eno's defection from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom State has led to ongoing controversies. Despite his defection, Eno's billboards and portraits still prominently feature at the state PDP secretariat in Uyo, causing tensions within the party.

Aniekan Akpan, the PDP state chairman, faces pressure from a group advocating for his removal, accusing him of being aligned with Eno's interests. The National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP has denied dissolving the state executive committee, further deepening the internal rift within the party.
