Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State has said that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) will be in office for two terms of eight years.

Naija News understands that Eno, a governor elected on the platform of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2023, made this known at the flag-off of the Akwa Ibom section of the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway project on Tuesday afternoon.

Let me end by assuring our president (Tinubu), our people-loving president, who will complete 8 years because we are going to stand by him,” Gov. Umo Eno.

In related development, the Delta State Chief of Staff, Prince Johnson Erijo, has ignited a political firestorm with his bold declaration that Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s administration will end in 2031, the same year President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s second term is expected to conclude.

Naija News gathered Erijo made the statement at a high-profile church event in Sapele, during the 49th birthday and 27th pastoral anniversary celebration of Archbishop Godday Iboyi of Promise Kingdom Ministry (Overflow).

His remarks have fueled speculation that Governor Oborevwori may soon defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and join the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Speaking on behalf of Governor Oborevwori, Erijo said, “It is the way the terminal bus stop of our President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is going to end in 2031, that is the same way that of your son, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, is going to end in 2031.

This statement has been widely interpreted as a strong alignment with President Tinubu’s administration and has raised eyebrows across the political landscape
