The Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, has scored the economic reforms of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu high.
Governor Eno described the reforms as remarkable and impactful on the State and other States in the South-South region of the country.
Governor Eno, while fielding questions from Government House Correspondents on his return from All Progressives Congress APC, South South Stakeholders Summit held in Benin, described the summit as interactive and an opportunity, especially for new entrants into the party to interact with Stakeholders across the South-South region.
“The summit went well. It was quite interactive, and an opportunity to get together for some of us who have just joined the Party. It was our first major outing as far as South-South is concerned.
“It gave us the opportunity to meet with the stakeholders, interact with them, and come up with a communique. So it was a good outing,” he noted.
Governor Eno commended President Tinubu for the series of economic reforms put in place to reposition the economy of the State and the nation for the better.
“I have never hidden my love for the President. He has brought up remarkable reforms to grow the nation’s economy. He has supported us in the South-South to implement our laudable projects.
“Our nation’s economy is turning around. I believe that in the next couple of months, we will begin to see the dividends,” he observed.
Governor Eno said the economy of Akwa Ibom State is growing steadily as lots of life-touching projects and programmes are being embarked upon and tracked to meet their set targets for the benefit of the people and the State.
“We are pursuing and doing our projects. We have finished our two-day projects’ review meeting. The ship of the State is perfectly on course.”
The Governor called on the people to continue to support the State Government, the President, and the Senate President in their leadership efforts to reposition the fortunes of the State and the country for the best.
The APC South-South Stakeholders Summit which had as its theme “Renewed Hope in Action: Strengthening APC Mobilization and Governance in the South-South,” was an interactive platform to reunite and realign members to the focus of accomplishing more for the people and the country.
In a communique at the end of the forum, the stakeholders endorsed President Tinubu for a second term in office.
