Gov. Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom has attributed the success of his administration within two years in office to teamwork, public support and the grace of God.

Eno, who made the statement in Uyo on Thursday at a media interaction to mark his administration’s two years in office, thanked Akwa Ibom people for their support.

“This administration has enjoyed enormous goodwill and support from Akwa Ibom people since it came on board on May 29, 2023.

“I say it boldly, the teamwork from members of my cabinet, support from our people, and the grace of God have armed us to serve Akwa Ibom,” he said.

The governor reassured Akwa Ibom people of his commitment to provide dividends of democracy in line with his administration’s Arise Agenda.

He said that Akwa Ibom would witness more developments across the 31 local government areas of the state in the next two years.

“We have the assessment of our government by independent organisations, I believe that we are on the right tract.

“We have not reached our destination yet, but the midterm report of our first tenure shows me that we have gone above 50 per cent.

“Take a look at all the indices of the ARISE Agenda from agriculture revolution, rural development, infrastructure development, security and education.

“You will agree that we have been able to tick the boxes. We have things we can talk about that we have delivered intentionally,” he said.

Eno urged Akwa Ibom people to get involved in farming as a deliberate way of bringing down the prices of essential food items.

He said that the government would continue to provide farmers with farm inputs and grants to ensure food availability.

The governor further said that the government would soon engage 31 computer teachers across the 31 model primary schools in the state to train pupils on ICT. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
