“We are happy that you are one outstanding governor who understands that political parties are just mere vehicles to get to political office but more importantly you understand the need to unite the people to ensure unity, love, and general good of all.
“We have watched with keen interest your genuine support for President Bola Tinubu’s administration, we have seen the synergy and working relationship between you and the Senate President Godswill Akpabio, Minister of Petroleum Resources (Gas), Obong Ekperipe Ekpo among others in other political parties and we are glad that national unity, peace, development, progress and harmony remain your priority.
“Akwa Ibom state under your watch is working and we have seen the spread of projects and programmes across every sector of the state economy.
“You are also a very compassionate governor whose milk of human kindness had touched the vulnerable and indigent members of the society beyond the boundaries of your state,” they added.
The group urged the governor to sustain his pragmatic approach to governance and ensure that a new Nigeria emerges from his candid efforts and exemplary leadership and political disposition as seen in his state.
