What is, however, more important is that we are progressively moving forward, linking Akwa Ibom to the centre, to belong, to get its rights, and be counted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The governor also emphasised the need for the state to move forward progressively to feel the full impact of the Federal Government.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the grants given to farmers, traders, and entrepreneurs in micro, small, and medium enterprises, Eno said he had ensured that eligible Akwa Ibomites received the benefits without needing to know any godfather or politician.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are making it possible for the child of a common man, who has no godfather or godmother, but applied through the portal to be screened and given a grant. We are making it go round, not on a party or group basis, but on the basis of our right as Akwa Ibomites,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>He also disclosed that the names of the beneficiaries, their trades, phone numbers, and the amounts given to them are all published in the official event brochure to demonstrate that government can be transparent and fair.<\/p>\n<p>Setting the tone for the event, the Secretary to the State Government, Prince Enobong Uwah, said the meeting was an avenue to bring government closer to the people and listen to their needs, which will eventually form part of the 2026 budget.<\/p>\n<p>Leading the chairmen of the three local government areas that make up the federal constituency in delivering a welcome address, the chairman of Ikot Abasi LGA, Hon. Ime Williamson Essien, described Governor Eno as a visionary leader, a promise-keeper, and a lover of good things who will be remembered for demystifying and simplifying leadership during his time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
