BREAKING: Tinubu Will Complete 8 Years In Office, Says Akwa Ibom Gov
In a surprising political stance, Akwa Ibom State governor, Pastor Umo Eno, has declared that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will complete two full terms in office, amounting to eight years as Nigeria’s leader.
Governor Eno, who was elected on the platform of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2023, made the statement during the flag-off of the Akwa Ibom section of the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway project on Tuesday afternoon.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will be here for eight years,” Governor Eno said, affirming support for the APC-led federal administration’s flagship infrastructure project.
His comment comes amid ongoing political maneuvering ahead of the 2027 general elections, and could raise eyebrows within PDP circles, where Tinubu’s tenure is expected to be contested vigorously.
Governor Eno’s remarks are likely to stir debate within Nigeria’s political landscape, especially as the PDP continues to re-strategize following its 2023 loss at the federal level.
