Akwa Ibom State Governor, Umo Eno, has addressed the controversy surrounding his open support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu‘s second term bid, insisting that his stance is a matter of conviction and not a betrayal of his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Speaking to a crowd of supporters at a rally in Ikot Ekpene Local Government Area, Governor Eno said his decision to back the President is deliberate and born out of sincerity, not political opportunism.
“Me, I don’t know how to speak from two sides of the mouth,” he said.
Governor Eno revealed that while some political actors secretly pledge allegiance to Tinubu behind closed doors but act differently in public, he chooses to be upfront about his position.
“The other day, I said I was going to support Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, people said ‘why do I say so?’ In the night, they go there and go and tell the baba ‘we will support you’, in the afternoon, they do another thing,” he stated.
