Governor Eno's Defection Impact: Tensions Rise in PDP Secretariat in Akwa Ibom
The aftermath of Governor Eno's defection to APC in Akwa Ibom State is evident as his portrait still dominates the PDP secretariat six months later. The power struggle intensifies with clashes between rival factions, led by Osagiefo Igwatt Umoren, and attempts to forcefully take over the secretariat.
