*Felicitates Paul Ekpo On Re-election
By our Editor -"Dakkada to me means total reversal from what is wrong. A change of our ideology. A change from all sorts of bad to good. On the whole, it's a call for assessment, reappraisal and refocus".
These were part of the statement made by the Transition Chairman, Uruan Local Government Area, Rt Hon Tony Akan, shortly after his official induction as a Dakkada Ambassador on Wednesday, 11th May, 2016.
The epoch-making event which was held at the Uyo Local Government Council secretariat, drew people from all walks of life; artisans, captains of industries, collegians, politicians and clerics from the four local government areas that made up Uyo Federal Constituency.
Addressing newsmen after his official decoration, the Uruan Chairman, thanked the State Governor, Mr Udom Emmanuel, for the Dakkada Initiative.
According to Hon Akan, the Dakkada campaign is inspired by the Governor’s dream to change the narrative of Akwa Ibomites and call them to rise to greatness against every barrier.
The Chairman was of the opinion that once the entire people of the State decide to make the choice of eschewing ethnicity and bias at all levels and embrace unity, as well as oneness of purpose, then the human development and industrialization of the State Governor would yield more fruits.
The Uruan Local Government Chairman while thanking the Directorate of Marketing and Brand Management, office of the governor, for the honour done him, also used the opportunity to congratulate the newly inaugurated State PDP Executive, referring to the re-election of Obong Paul Ekpo for a second term in office as a wonderful history.
"I am very happy to be part of this good historic moment in our party because I supported and really wanted Obong Paul Ekpo to go back as a Chairman", he hinted.
On why he gave maximum support to a man from Etinan Federal Constituency, the Council boss accentuated that "Paul Ekpo did very well during his first term as the Chairman of the party and there should be price for loyalty.
"So what happened on Tuesday was a prove that sincerity has a reward and I was very happy for that".
