In a development that has sparked widespread reactions across Nigeria’s political landscape, Governor Pastor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State has declared that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will complete two terms in office, amounting to eight years.
The governor, who was elected under the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2023, made the unexpected statement on Tuesday during the launch of the Akwa Ibom section of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway Project.
Governor Eno’s comment is being interpreted by many as a veiled concession, suggesting a shift in political calculations ahead of the 2027 general elections, despite his party’s ongoing efforts to reclaim power at the national level.
His remarks are expected to stir debate within PDP ranks and among political stakeholders nationwide as reactions continue to pour in.
