The President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio, has congratulated the governor of Akwa Ibom, Umo Eno, over his decision to join the ruling All Progressive Congress, because development could only come from the party at the centre.
Akpabio, who was represented by his wife, Uloma Akpabio, at the official defection of Governor Eno to the APC on Friday in Uyo, stressed that he would not regret joining the APC.
Akpabio said, “Our dear governor, God’s chosen Pastor Umo Eno. The latest member of the APC, you are welcome, sir. congratulations. The deputy governor, my daughter, the noble lady, you have a lot of work to do.
“All our critical stakeholders, you are welcome. Our dear governor, with your defection to APC it has made your work very easy. During our own time, it was like entering a forest with a knife, not an axe, not with a bulldozer, but with a knife. You can imagine cutting through a forest with a knife to enter the APC.
”But I am very glad you have seen the light, and God has seen your heart that you mean well for our people. Because you are a child of God, God has opened your eyes to see the light. And you know that every development can only come from the APC.
”You have a president who has the vision, you have a Senate President who doesn’t like to fight. It wouldn’t have been this easy. I am so excited, I am glad. My heart is full of joy. And our critical stakeholders, those who left the APC. Those we left in PDP, and you have not joined the APC, you are all welcome. May God bless you”
