Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State has hinted about his potential defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying that the party may no longer serve his political aspirations beyond 2027.
Speaking during a constituency outreach in Ikot Akpankuk, Ukanafun Local Government Area on Tuesday, Eno likened the PDP to a malfunctioning aircraft, hinting at the possibility of switching to another political platform—an analogy widely interpreted as a nod toward the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“If you wanted to travel with Ibom Airline, and on the verge of taking off, it developed a fault that won’t enable it to fly, won’t you board the next available plane to take you to your destination?” Eno asked the crowd.
His remarks come amid rising tensions and defections within the PDP, including the recent move by Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori to the APC.
Despite expressing doubts about the PDP’s direction, Eno reaffirmed his commitment to delivering on governance promises. He stressed that service to the people remains his administration’s top priority.
As part of the outreach, over 400 constituents benefited from empowerment packages, including grants for 154 traders and 116 farmers, N5 million business development funds for four individuals, and equipment support for 131 others.
Eno urged beneficiaries to use the support wisely and avoid risky ventures like Ponzi schemes. “We need to meet with the people from time to time. Governance doesn’t end at elections,” he said.
He added that four of the state’s 10 federal constituencies have been engaged so far, with plans to incorporate community needs into the 2026 budget.
“This government belongs to the people—it is for you, with you, and by you,” Eno emphasized.
