Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga has stated that Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State is now the leader of the All Progressives Congress in the state.
Onanuga made the declaration in a post shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, following a meeting between Governor Eno, Senate President Godswill Akpabio, and President Bola Tinubu.
He wrote: “Akwa Ibom Governor, Umo Eno, and Senate President, Godswill Akpabio visited President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Friday. Governor Eno is the APC leader in his state.”
Governor Eno, who was originally elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, recently defected to the APC.
