Governor Emmanuel handed down the warning against the backdrop of opposition gang-up against the Commissioner for Lands and Water Resources, Pastor Umo Eno, who he declared as his anointed Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate to succeed him in 2023. Appreciating the people for sustaining their trust and support for the PDP, Emmanuel said: “Today, if you talk about the PDP in Nigeria, Akwa Ibom State will be rated as one of the strongest. “I thank you for your faithfulness and standing strong for our party and for contributing to the national strength of our party. Everything I do is in the interest of Akwa Ibom people,” he said. By this, he said, the party has felt the impact of the government while the governor feels the pulse of the party, thereby stabilizing the party in the state.
