Tinubu Welcomes Umo Eno to APC, Assures of Equal Rights

President Bola Tinubu has assured Akwa Ibom State Governor, Umo Eno that he will enjoy all the rights and privileges of being a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) like all other members of the party.

This assurance was given at a grand reception held in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital, to welcome Governor Eno into the party.

Represented by Vice President Kashim Shettima, President Tinubu stated that Governor Eno would not suffer any form of discrimination as a result of being a new member of the party.

The President’s assurance is seen as a move to integrate Governor Eno into the party’s fold and make him feel at home.

Governor Eno, who recently defected to the APC, pointed out that his decision to join the party was a case of understanding the times.

His words suggest that he believes the APC is the right platform for him to achieve his political goals and serve the people of Akwa Ibom State effectively.

The reception, which was attended by top APC officials and stakeholders, marked a significant milestone in Governor Eno’s political career.

With his defection to the APC, he is expected to play a key role in the party’s activities in Akwa Ibom State and beyond.

The APC has been working to strengthen its base in the South-South region, and Governor Eno’s defection is seen as a major boost to the party’s chances in the region.

As a former member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Governor Eno’s decision to join the APC is expected to have significant implications for the political landscape of Akwa Ibom State and the South-South region as a whole.

With President Tinubu’s assurance of equal rights and privileges, Governor Eno is expected to hit the ground running and contribute his quota to the growth and development of the APC. As the party prepares for future elections, Governor Eno’s defection is seen as a strategic move to strengthen the party’s base and increase its chances of winning elections in the region.
