Akwa Ibom Diaspora Chief Lauds Akpabio, Usoro Over LG Poll Victory

For securing Essien Udim council for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the just concluded local government elections in Akwa Ibom State, a United States (US) – based philanthropist, Dr. Marshall Umoren, has applauded the Senate president Godswill Akpabio and the victorious local government chairman, Ntiedo Usoro.

During the October 5 contest across the 31 LGAs, the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) swept the polls, except Essien Udim, Akpabio’s local government, where the ruling APC at the centre won.
Therefore, Umoren, an ardent APC diaspora member, who also commended the resilience of the elected chairman, Hon. Ntiedo Usoro, party supporters and stakeholders, prayed for a more eventful era under his watch.

He said: “On behalf of myself and all well-meaning individuals of goodwill, I extend my warmest congratulations to you on your remarkable victory in the recently concluded local government Chairmanship polls; and subsequent inauguration as executive chairman of Essien Udim.

“Your triumph, as the sole victor under the banner of the APC in a PDP dominated state, is a testament to your wide acceptability, sagacity, resiliency in leadership, and the trust the good people of Essien Udim has placed in your vision and ability to drive the progress and development of the area.

“This victory is not just a personal achievement but a significant milestone in the impressive trajectory of the APC in Akwa Ibom State.
