Reactions have trailed Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom comment as he directed all commissioners and political appointees to defect with him from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) or resign from their positions. Eno said it was no longer news that he had decided to defect to the APC.

“Anybody who claims he is not aware of my intention to leave PDP is still living in the 18th century, “Eno stated. The Governor reportedly gave the directive to Commissioners and his political appointees during the ongoing state Executive Council Meeting taking place in Uyo on Thursday, according to sources from the meeting.

According to Governor Eno, he has ired President Bola Tinubu from a distance and would want to align with him. He warned his appointees that he had nothing to negotiate with them than for them to follow him or leave the stage.

“Apart from elected officials like House of Assembly and Local Government Chairmen, I have nothing to negotiate with you.

“Let me tell you, anybody who believes when I leave PDP, he will use the party structure to fight me is lying because I will still control the PDP structure”, the source quoted Eno as saying.

Many sources have confirmed that Eno would likely jettison PDP on June 6, bringing to an end more than 25 years of the party being in power in Akwa Ibom State.

They don't have to. Part of their job is to provoke discussions that deepen democracy and they are doing just that.

For defecting to Apc.

Abati should stop talking nonsense

So if you had good commissioners doing their jobs perfectly and the refused to you to APC so you will sack them abi and bring in incompetent ones that agreed to follow you to your demonic party... If votes actually counts both Tinubu and his defectors will definitely fail woefully

Another one o

Chai this guy get bad mouth I swear, a chameleon wow

Honestly,it’s becoming of them.

Rubbish talk. I don't know eno. But I most of his moves especially because he is a pastor. Nobody will see a ship sailing by and not abandon a sinking one. Pdp is a sinking ship at the moment

Sigh... Why are state governors far more concerned about retaining their offices than actually making their states better in all ramifications?!!


Sanwo-Olu, who is already outgoing, is doing far more than these first-term governors in Cross River, Delta, and Benue.

They're actually doing the job of the media.
But an illiterate wouldn't understand!

And Reuben is what? Unstable as water.

Both Eno and APC are mad. We will suprise them in 2027.

Their existence as a TV station is already giving you troubles. If they become a ed political party, it may kpai you oo

Arise TV is a political party

He's an orange man not chameleon
Very theatrical
The only gov to be chewing defection like bitter kola every week

Abati himself was a failed politician before Atiku's boy Obaigbena accommodated him in Arise Tv. He is always bitter and envious of successful politicians .

Shey Abati don return the money he collected from Sambo Dasuki?

The national assembly must as a matter of urgency make laws that will prohibit any elected officer to decamp with the mandate of the party to another party.
The recent gale of decampments has put our democracy on trial and if we want the democracy to succeed in the long run something must be done immediately.

I don't know why Arise News is always giving Tinubu and his ers troubles?


Maybe they want Arise News to be like NTA.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Reuben is one of the finest journalists in this country

The Gov dictate the tune my brother. It's not compulsory, he employed them while they have the option to stay or leave. The and conditions are with the Gov.

Yes, but as a journalist he's not supposed to force his views or opinions on his guests. It's wrong. He's to moderate the program and not to give a categorical position. He's the interviewer and not the interviewee.

Dude

abobote:

yes

But he reminds me of Patrick in SpongeBob


Same voice,same mannerisms,same eyes n mouth


Heck same head shape


Sometimes i think he's the character behind Patrick in SpongeBob square pants
