Organisers of the event invited all, saying it would mark the grand “homecoming of an Illustrious son of Eket senatorial district.”
Among reasons cited for the celebration of the governor by his senatorial district are “his ingenuity which has led to numerous industries, job opportunities, free education with WAEC fees, stability in power supply, improved healthcare delivery, affordable and sufficient food supply and security among others.”
It would be recalled that the Ikot Ekpene and Uyo senatorial districts had recently rallied support in separate colourful endorsement ceremonies, where Governor Udom Emmanuel was unanimously celebrated and endorsed for a second term.
