2023: PDP is the only good party for Akwa Ibom, Gov Emmanuel harps

Gov Emmanuel said this while addressing a mammoth crowd of PDP faithful in Akwa Ibom

Ahead the 2023 Akwa Ibom governorship election, the governor of the state, Mr Udom Emmanuel has insisted that the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) is the only party that is good for the state.

He added that voting for PDP, in 2023 is a sure way to sustain the pace of infrastructural development and capacity building being witnessed in the state.

Gov Emmanuel said this while addressing a mammoth crowd of PDP faithful Saturday, during the flag-off of the campaign for Akwa Ibom South Senatorial District at the Eket Township Stadium.

The governor however urged the people of the state not be deceived into voting for another political party in the 2023 general elections.

He maintained that the lead the state has taken in infrastructure and human capacity building in entrepreneurial development would be sustained if the PDP government is reelected at the various levels of government.

“I stand to be quoted anywhere, there’s no government today in Nigeria that has invested in entrepreneurial development, youth development and capacity building like the present government of Akwa Ibom State.

“Every week, we are graduating people on entrepreneurial skills,” the governor said, adding that the ongoing International Skill Acquisition Centre Project at Ikot Ada Idem in Ibiono Ibom local government area will be another achievement of the state government in the sector.

He disclosed that the State Government, Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, and Solutions Hub Limited have completed paper works for the establishment of an onshore logistics base in Ibaka, Mbo LGA to boost the economic fortunes of the state.

Gov Emmanuel also cautioned the people to be wary of politicians preoccupying themselves with state finance in their campaigns, saying such candidates have no clear-cut agenda for development.

The PDP governorship candidate, according to Governor Emmanuel, has been harping on his blueprint, the ARISE agenda, which clearly shows he has a vision and a plan for the state.

Earlier in his remarks, the State PDP  Chairman Elder Aniekan Akpan thanked Governor Udom Emmanuel for providing leadership and encouraging effective followership in the party and urged the people to cheer up and support the candidates of the PDP to victory.

The PDP governorship candidate, Pastor Umo Eno, expressed appreciation to the people of Eket Senatorial District and described the rally as a homecoming for him.

He assured the party supporters of building on the legacies of Governor Emmanuel, stressing that he will empower the people through his ARISE agenda, which aims at taking advantage of the blue economy of the state to provide jobs and enhance the well-being of the people.
