Akwa Ibom as a paradigm for the evolvement of an all- inclusive and sustainable societal prosperity in the 21st Century
‘’Governor Udom Emmanuel has exhibited the foresight of a statesman in the construction of a new and formidable political economy with positive consequences for engendering the emergence of a buoyant working and middle class. From agro-industrialization to the nationally unequaled Ibom Air to the visionary layout of the Deep Sea Port and the various international partnerships for human capital development, Governor Emmanuel has generated a quiet but gigantic economic revolution in Akwa Ibom State. This is the story of inspiration from the vicinity of the Atlantic Ocean in sub-Sahara Africa.’’
The foregoing is an extract from the citation by the California, U.S.–based pro-labour organization, the Global Alliance for Workers. Details to be published on Friday, February 24th, 2023.
