YOUR DECISIVE VICTORY, A TRUE REFLECTION OF THE WILL AND CONFIDENCE OF THE PEOPLE
Let me use this opportunity to warmly congratulate you and the All Progressives Congress (APC) family in Cross River State on your decisive victory during the just concluded Governorship election in the State.
Your Excellency, the Governor-Elect, during the campaign, you took your message, encapsulated in “The People First Manifesto”, to all the nooks and crannies of our dear State. Our people bought into your brand-new vision for our State and voted massively for you.
Your victory therefore is a true reflection of the true will of the people as well as their confidence in you. Our people desire a compassionate government that will promote peace, prosperity and create the enabling environment for their potentials to unfurl and flourish.
Even as we celebrate this collective affirmation of the people in your ability to deliver a purposeful leadership as comprehensively demonstrated in the election, you should however not lose sight of the enormous task ahead and the weight of the huge expectations of our people.
Over the years, you have etched yourself in the consciousness of our people as an empathetic leader and a high performer with sterling and tangible deliverables. This is yet another opportunity that providence has offered you with a state-wide sacred mandate of the people to deliver the dividends of democracy for the common good. Given your track record of service, I have no doubt that you will rise up to the occasion to deliver a new Cross River of great promise, opportunities and prosperity.
Experience has shown that the vast majority of our people are willing to follow to the extent that they find a leader ready to lead. I am again confident in your ability to provide that leadership as indeed history beckons on you to.
May the Lord grant you exceptional wisdom to pilot the ship of State and to drive the process of governance and accelerated prosperity.
God bless you and our dear State.
John Owan Enoh
