The NYCN President lauded Sen. Akpabio for being the torchbearer of the next generation and embarking on constructive and impactful programs, projects, and activities that have lifted many people out of poverty.
“For us at the NYCN, Sen. Godswill Obot Akpabio is a household name. It is the recognition of his rare but sterling qualities, leadership capabilities, track record of selfless service to humanity, uncommon transformation of institutions, pacesetting initiatives, and incorruptible administrative acumen that we have always been there for him.
“We have consequently institutionalized the Sen. Godswill Obot Akpabio Leadership and Youth Mentorship Annual Summit/Lecture to propagate this great leader and to project such quality leadership abilities as part of deliberate efforts to pass down the information to the generations yet unborn. We will continue to celebrate him.
“This time around too, we are going to do nothing different. We are going to team up with all of you, whom we know as ambassadors of the youths in the state and beyond, to actualize his mandate. I thank you for identifying us as worthy partners in this regard.
“We want to also use this opportunity to celebrate his well-deserved victory at the Supreme Court in which an attempt to steal his mandate was reversed. The judiciary has truly proven again to be our last hope as citizens of this great country.
Earlier in his address, the leader of the delegation, Barr. Aniekeme Obot said they were approaching the youth organization to use its far-reaching network to attract support for Sen. Akpabio given his transformational records and the need to ensure that only credible leaders that have the interest of the people at heart man such sensitive positions.
The delegation which also comprised of loyal party men and women said, Sen. Akpabio is best suited for the job, having been tested in the past in several capacities in which he surpassed everybody’s expectations. Additionally that the uncommon projects he executed during his time have inspired many governors today to embark on people-oriented projects as proof of their stewardship.
