Akpan Umoh, Uyo
An All Progressives Congress (APC) Chieftain in Akwa Ibom, Otuekong Sunny Jackson Udoh, has urged Governor Umo Eno to see his Supreme Court victory as a God-given opportunity to reconcile with the opposition for the development of the State.
Udoh said this while speaking with newsmen in Uyo on Monday on the Jan. 12 Supreme Court judgement on the governorship election in the state.
He urged the Governor to show wisdom and magnanimity on his victory at the Supreme Court, describing it as God’s given opportunity.
The second republic lawmaker urged the governor to give an open arm to the opponents to join hands in building the state.
“His Excellency your Supreme Court victory is the perfect will of God and the irrefutable choice of Akwa Ibom people.
“It also reinforces the people’s confidence in your government,” Udoh said.
The elder statesman appealed to all Akwa Ibom people to support Eno’s administration, emphasizing that the time for politicking is over, hence everyone needs to ensure the optimal development of the state.
“I believe we all want the State to progress; this is the spirit of all of us, including supporters of the opposition party.
“The development of the State is not negotiable and should not be compromised for any petty reason.
“We should rally around this government, to ensure progress and stability,” he said.
