President Tinubu Assures Akwa Ibom of Continued Support and Development

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has reaffirmed his administration's commitment to the continued development of Akwa Ibom State. The President gave the assurance when he received in audience the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio; Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Pastor Umo Eno; and two senators from the state, Senator Aniekan Akpan and Senator Ekong Sampson.


President Tinubu emphasized his dedication to inclusive national development and praised Governor Umo Eno's ARISE Agenda as a strategic complement to the Federal Government's Renewed Hope Agenda. The President assured that the Federal Government will work closely with the state in line with these agendas to drive development.

The visit also featured the formal presentation of Senators Aniekan Akpan and Ekong Sampson, who recently defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC). The defection is seen as a significant development in the state's political landscape.

The delegation used the occasion to commiserate with the President on the passing of former President Muhammadu Buhari, describing his death as a national loss and acknowledging his legacy in strengthening Nigeria's democracy. The President and the delegation paid tribute to the former President's contributions to the country's development.

The meeting between the President and the Akwa Ibom State delegation is expected to yield positive outcomes for the state's development, with the Federal Government's support and collaboration. The President's assurance of continued support and development is a welcome development for the state, and the ARISE Agenda is likely to receive further boost from the Federal Government's Renewed Hope Agenda.
