Emmanuel deserves second term, says aide

The Special Assistant to Governor Udom Emmanuel on Marketing and Brand Management, Mr. Louis Udom, has begun grassroots campaign for the reelection of his principal in 2019.

Udom, who took his campaign to Unit 2, Ikot Ibritam Ward one in Oruk Anam Local Government Area, urged all electorate in his area, urging the people to vote for candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Governor Emmanuel.

He said Emmanuel should continue in office till 2023 to enable him consolidate on his achievements in the areas of infrastructure and industrialisation.

The governor’s aide mentioned the Ikot Ibritam-Ikot Ekpuk- Inen Ekeffe road as one of the projects which has been fixed by the current administration after years of neglect by past administrations.

Udom assured the people that they would gain more in terms of facilities, human capital development and employment opportunities through aggressive industrialisation drive of the government, if they can give Emmanuel second term in office.

He recalled that Akwa Ibom had accepted PDP from 1999, urging the people to sustain the cordiality. He said no political party has anything on ground to show in the state, except PDP which has remained in heart of the people from the inception of the democratic dispensation.

The supervisor for Youths in Oruk Anam Local Government Area, Mr. Kufre Ndarake Sam, expressed gratitude to the governors’ aide for his initiative.

Ndarake urged other public office holders to emulate the example to make the campaign easier for  Emmanuel next month in line with directives of Independent National Electoral commission (INEC).
