The All Progressives Congress (APC) has indicated its readiness to welcome Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno into its fold, following his recent comments hinting at a potential departure from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Governor Eno’s analogy of the PDP as a malfunctioning aircraft during a constituency meeting on Tuesday has been widely interpreted as a strong signal of his intention to join the ruling APC.
“If you wanted to travel with Ibom Airline and, on the verge of taking off, it developed a fault that won’t enable it to fly, won’t you board the next available plane to take you to your destination?” Eno asked the crowd during the Ukanafun/Oruk Anam federal constituency meeting.

Reacting to Governor Eno’s remarks about the PDP being like a faulty aircraft, the All Progressives Congress (APC), through its National Publicity Secretary Felix Morka, issued a statement on Wednesday, April 30, 2025, agreeing with the governor’s assessment and asserting that the PDP has become an unreliable political platform.
“As safety and comfort are prerequisite conditions for flying, our great Party assures the Governor that Plane APC is fit and ready to fly His Excellency and entourage to their desired destination.
“Our pilots and crew are highly competent, welcoming, attentive to detail, and on standby to serve.
“We assure Governor Eno that a flight with us will be a mighty good ride to remember,” Morka said.
