2027: APC Set to Unveil ARISE 2.0 Manifesto, Inaugurate Umo Eno Campaign Council

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom State is set to unveil the ARISE 2.0 Manifesto of Governor Umo Bassey Eno and inaugurate its State Campaign Council ahead of the 2027 governorship election.

The event is scheduled for Friday, November 13, 2026, at the Banquet Hall of ARISE Palm Resort, Uyo, with proceedings expected to commence at 3:00 p.m.

The unveiling will formally present Governor Eno’s proposed development agenda and policy direction for the 2027–2031 administration under the theme and slogan, “ARISE… That Same God.”
Governor Eno, the APC governorship candidate for the 2027 election, is expected to use the occasion to outline his vision for the next phase of development in the state, highlighting the achievements, policies and programmes of his administration as the foundation for the proposed next term.

The occasion will also feature the inauguration of the APC State Campaign Council, which is expected to bring together party leaders, political stakeholders and supporters to coordinate and drive the party’s campaign activities ahead of the election.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio is listed as Chairman of the campaign council, alongside Governor Eno, Deputy Governor Senator Akon Eyakenyi and other prominent party leaders.
The APC’s campaign strategy is anchored on four key principles: Performance, Character, Consolidation and Continuity, which the party says reflect its commitment to sustaining its political and developmental agenda in Akwa Ibom State.

The event is expected to provide a platform for the party to communicate its priorities for the 2027–2031 period, strengthen its campaign structure and mobilise supporters behind Governor Eno’s re-election ambition.
It will also formally signal the commencement of a coordinated campaign effort by the APC as political activities intensify ahead of the 2027 governorship election.
