GOVERNOR ENO: A BEACON OF HOPE AND UNITY FOR A'IBOM

 GOVERNOR ENO: A BEACON OF HOPE AND UNITY FOR A'IBOM

It never occurred to many, even the best political pundits, that a man who was not in the political organogram or permutations could navigate the state’s administrative affairs so adeptly. Identified through keen attitudinal evaluation, repeated unpretentious shows of sincerity, vigor, truth, and humility, His Excellency, Pastor Umo Eno, Governor of Akwa Ibom State, embodies these virtues.

The Bible admonishes, “For those who want to worship the Lord must worship in holiness and in truth” (John 4:24). This divine order is best characterized in Governor Umo Eno’s dispositions.

Initially disbelieved by almost all opposition camps, he was underscored in performance even before being handed the state's executive baton. Media writers painted various pictures of him, emphasizing his words, addresses, public responses, and opinions, all authored with a subtle air of humility, meekness, and brotherhood.

Poised for the unity of his fatherland, and clothed with the zeal never to let go of his passion to repair and address the cracks across political walls, Governor Eno’s call to all opposition leaders to "Come, let us work together" was not just a verbal beautification but a fact. His aim was to reconstruct the fence of political division through collective bargaining to see a new Akwa Ibom arise.

The past 365 days in office as the Executive Governor of Akwa Ibom State stand as a testament to Governor Umo Eno’s character. Impactful, peaceful, and inclusive, his administration's crux is humanity and humility. These elements have reinvigorated the long-expected era anticipated by the people. Those who doubted his performance have lost count of the celebrations, accolades, thumbs-ups, and goodwill across divides in response to His Excellency's practical multi-purpose development strides.

As Governor Eno embarks on his second year in office, there is an abundance of assurance, rebuilt faith, rekindled hope, and unwavering trust across the hearts of citizens in preparedness to embrace the ARISE agenda for a beautiful tomorrow for all Akwa Ibom citizens.

Indeed, His Excellency, Governor Umo Eno, is a gift to Akwa Ibom. Let us join hands to build one united state devoid of ethnicity, tribe, language, or race, holding on to our collective diversity as a source of our strength.
