The daughter of Akwa Ibom State Governor Pastor Umo Eno, has accused her father of having a hand in the death of his late wife, Patience Oluwakemi Umo Eno, who passed away in September 2024 following an undisclosed illness.
According to reports, the allegation was disclosed in a video currently trending online.
Jane Edidiong Ufot, the second daughter who currently serves as the governor’s Senior Special Adviser on Health, Safety and Environment, described her mother as a “sacrifice” and declared that she would not suffer the same fate.
“I’m not a sacrifice, mommy was, but I’m not,” she said in the video.
The clip also captured a moment where she handed her phone to her young daughter, who appeared to be engaged in a video call with Governor Eno. The child, prompted by her mother, posed a question to the governor on the other end of the line.
“So, Grandpa, do you want them to kill us?” the child asked.
“Do you want them to die like my baby brother died?”
No audible response was heard from the governor during the exchange, and Mrs. Ufot did not clarify who she referred to as “them.” The identity of the “baby brother” mentioned also remains unverified as of press time.
Mrs. Ufot, in the video, further claimed that her life and that of her daughter were in danger due to unspecified revelations that she suggested may soon come to light.
“If I die today or my daughter dies. If we die because God is exposing the truth, so be it. But my blood will not go scot-free,” she stated.
Patience Umo Eno, the late First Lady of Akwa Ibom State, died on Thursday, September 26, 2024.
