Governor Udom Emmanuel has led Akwa Ibom people in another session of the state’s yearly Solemn Assembly and Thanksgiving Service to usher the state into year 2023 and rededicate the state to God.
Speaking at the service, tagged “Go Forward”, held at Ibom Hall Grounds, Uyo, Emmanuel identified peace as God’s greatest blessing to the state during his tenure as governor.
This, he stressed, has been fundamental to all other achievements of his administration.
The governor also said it was important for the state to appreciate God for what He has done and encourage Him to do more, saying for the people to go forward, they need to be confident that God will move them forward.
Guest Minister and General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, speaking on the theme “Go Forward”, said he was in the state as an oracle of God to proclaim to Akwa Ibom people to move forward, as God has no pleasure in backwardness or stagnation.
The cleric said God is constant and controls tomorrow and urged Akwa Ibom people to put their trust in God, assuring that as the state is rededicated to God, peace, joy and prosperity will reign in the state.
