APC woos Akwa Ibom gov: Our plane ready to fly you to desired destination

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has declared its readiness to fly Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno out of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Eno had hinted at his imminent defection to the APC, likening the PDP to a faulty aircraft.

The APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, in a statement issued on Wednesday, April 30, 2025, agreed with Eno’s assessment of the PDP, saying the opposition party’s plan has become “demonstrably inoperable and unsafe for travel.”

Morka stated: “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.”
