“We must secure our future today by laying the solid foundation for sustainable growth through the provision of enduring infrastructure,  world-class healthcare delivery, education of our children that is tailored to the realities of the 21st  Century globalized world, food sufficiency, continuous attraction of Foreign Direct Investments, expansion of our aviation industry, Power for all, by 2021, human capacity development across board, tourism  sports development etc.

“To the Nigerian judiciary, you have again risen to defend our democracy and for this, I say thank you for being the last bastion for the common man.

“Let me again extend my hands of fellowship to my brothers and sisters on the other side of the political divide to come and let us build our dear State together. “

“The period of politicking and litigations are over, it’s time now for governance. Akwa Ibom State is a piece of God’s own real estate; we should not allow the flaming passions of partisan politics affect the cords of our unity and love.

“God bless our State, God bless our nation and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance!”
