Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State has alleged threats to his political future.
Eno allegedly received threats from the political class to share money or risk forfeiting his second term.
He disclosed this while addressing journalists in Uyo, the state capital on Saturday.
The governor urged politicians to stop distracting his administration because he was trying to address the challenges confronting the state’s people.
Eno says, “I have received a lot of threats from the political class that I won’t do a second term.
“I am putting money into rural development because a good first term is better than a useless second term.
“I don’t want to put more money in one person’s hands to the detriment of the 7.9 million population.”
Eno called on politicians to give him time till December to put the state’s governance structure on the right track.
