Senate President Godswill Obot Akpabio has commended Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, for officially joining the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing it as a bold and strategic move that aligns the state with the federal government.

Speaking at a reception ceremony held at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Akpabio expressed confidence that both the governor and the state would benefit greatly from the decision, assuring that the APC-led administration under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is committed to keeping its promises.

The event, which was attended by Vice President Kashim Shettima (representing the President), APC National Chairman Dr. Umar Ganduje, members of the Progressive Governors’ Forum, National Assembly members, and other party chieftains, marked a significant political milestone in Akwa Ibom’s alignment with the national leadership
