In a statement, he explained that in just 24 months, a quiet but powerful transformation has taken root across Cross River South in infrastructure building and investments in education and healthcare, among other constituencies.

Through tireless advocacy, visionary projects, and an empathy-rooted leadership style, Ekpenyong said he has reignited faith in governance and restored dignity to everyday lives.

“Today, the people stand united in celebration of a journey marked by progress — one illuminated by access, opportunity, and a visible difference in thousands of homes,” the statement said.

Also, the statement disclosed that over 6,870 street lights brighten streets once shrouded in darkness, bringing safety and new life to night-time commerce.

Ekpenyong also said that, “There are also 11 newly built and eight reconstructed roads now connecting communities and markets, easing commutes and boosting local economies across the district.”

He says projects such as the Ikot Nkebre Layout, Adiabo Road off Tinapa, and Clerk Alley Street have improved access and revitalised entire neighbourhoods. He disclosed that health and education have also seen a remarkable uplift.

“Through 17 medical outreaches, 4,422 residents now receive essential healthcare services, many for the first time. A new chapter is unfolding in classrooms across the district.

“1,700 students now have access to a brighter future through the Domestic Education Support Initiative, and 31 are studying abroad under prestigious foreign scholarships,” the statement said.

The Senator’s investment in two ICT-equipped schools demonstrates his commitment to equipping the next generation for a digital future.

“Before now, we felt forgotten, but today we see and feel the difference. Our children are going to better schools, our roads are passable, and opportunities are available to everyone,” said Mrs Nkese Etim, a trader in Calabar South. “This is the first time in many years that we feel our voice in the Senate is strong and working for us.”

With 28 indigenes gaining employment in the Federal Public Service and 12 others holding appointments in the National Assembly, young professionals from the district are now finding a path to national relevance and growth. Senator Ekpenyong has also prioritised accessibility and affordability with free bus rides across 19 routes, further easing the burden of transportation for constituents.

Senator Ekpenyong, recently honoured with the Thisday Global Leaders Award for his exceptional performance, remains firmly rooted in his purpose and service to the people. He reflected on his time in office so far: “My primary purpose in the Senate is the accelerated development of our land and people — nothing else. We are here to serve, build, and ensure no community is left behind.”

The Senator’s 17 international representations have brought Cross River South into strategic conversations worldwide, while his grassroots development approach has anchored progress firmly at home. As Cross River South looks ahead, the people remain hopeful, inspired by a new era of leadership that listens, delivers, and uplifts.
