The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) congratulated the Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Pastor Umo Eno on the Thursday’s Judgment of the Supreme Court which upheld his victory at the March 18, 2023 governorship election in the State.
This judgement of the Supreme Court, the highest and final Court in our country, according to the PDP, “is victory for Democracy and the decisive triumph of the Will of the people of Akwa Ibom State in their determination to preserve good governance in their State”.
The party said this in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Hon Debo Ologunagba in Abuja.
The spontaneous jubilation across Akwa Ibom State at the news of the Judgment of the Supreme Court, the party said, “shows that the verdict is in line with their expressed Will, aspiration and choice at the March 18, 2023 governorship election”.
According to the leading opposition party, “Governor Eno is a humble, compassionate and visionary leader; seasoned administrator with extensive managerial skills which he acquired over the years in both private and public sectors; qualities that continue to endear him to the people of Akwa Ibom State, and for which they overwhelmingly elected him at the poll.
“Our Party is proud of his capacity for leadership especially in hitting the ground running upon inauguration with the launching of the ARISE Agenda leading to monumental achievements in the delivery of life-changing citizen empowerment programmes and projects in critical sectors including Agriculture, Education, Healthcare, Security, Housing, Road infrastructure, Manufacturing, Commerce, Aviation among others.
“The PDP congratulates the people of Akwa Ibom State for this victory and charges Governor Eno to remain steadfast in building on the legacies of his predecessor in office, His Excellency Udom Emmanuel, in the delivery of his people-oriented ARISE Agenda programmes and projects in line with the policy thrust and manifesto of the PDP”, it said.
