Former PDP legal adviser Enoidem joins APC in A’Ibom
The immediate past National Legal Adviser of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Barrister Emmanuel Enoidem, has officially joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom State.
Enoidem expressed gratitude to Governor Umo Eno for helping him reconcile with his former political leader, Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
Akpabio praised the governor for the growing political unity in the state, saying that peace and cooperation among political leaders would help speed up development in Akwa Ibom.
The Senate President made the remarks when Governor Eno led a high-powered delegation of political leaders to formally inform him of Enoidem’s decision to join the APC.
Enoidem served for eight years as commissioner during Akpabio’s tenure as Governor of Akwa Ibom and later became National Legal Adviser of the PDP. He contested against Akpabio in the last senatorial election for Akwa Ibom North West Senatorial District.
Receiving the delegation at his residence in Uyo, Akpabio said unity and peace were essential for the progress of the state, stressing that political engagement should go beyond electoral contests.
A statement by the Special Assistant on Media and Communication to the President of the Senate, Anietie Ekong, quoted Akpabio as saying that efforts aimed at preventing conflict and fostering harmony were worthwhile and beneficial to the state.
Eno said the delegation was in Uyo to inform Akpabio of Enoidem’s decision to align with the APC, describing the move as part of ongoing efforts to strengthen political cooperation in Akwa Ibom.
He added that stakeholders in the state had resolved to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and work together to promote stability and development.
Enoidem described Governor Eno as a unifying figure and expressed appreciation for his role in reconciling him with Akpabio.
He said that despite past political differences, Akpabio remained his leader and affirmed his readiness to work with him.
Enoidem is expected to be formally received into the APC at a rally in Utu Etim Ekpo, Etim Ekpo Local Government Area, on Friday, January 23.
