Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, has urged all stakeholders to support the actualisation of the Ibom Deep Seaport project, following the approval of his request for federal government support by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
This was contained in his remarks on Sunday November 8, 2026, during a special thanksgiving service at the All Nations Christian Ministry International, Eket.
He expressed gratitude to God for the successful hosting of the President, his Wife, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, and the entire members of the team, and for the approval the President gave for the development of the Ibom Deep Seaport.
The Governor called on all stakeholders to eschew individual differences and embrace the project, stressing that the State would not condone any form of interference.
“Let peace and unity reign in our State. Let us all be thankful to God for the Presidential approval for the development of the Sea Port, and work together in love to ensure the project is fully brought to reality for the overall benefit of our State, our region, and the nation.
“This time, I tell you, that project will start, and no one or situation will disrupt its progress and realization. This project will immensely benefit our children and children’s children, so we must support it to work,” he said.
The Governor specifically appreciated the people of the State for their laudable sense of solidarity, hospitality and support for the successful execution of the Presidential visit, and called on the people to continue to live in peace and unity for a greater Akwa Ibom State.
Preaching on the topic “We are well able,” drawn from Numbers 13:30-33, the General Secretary and Trustee of the Assemblies of God, Nigeria, Rev. Godwin Amaowoh admonished believers to always be bold, confident and positive in life in order to achieve their goals and success.
He encouraged Christians to trust in God, resist intimidation, stressing that the heart is the engine of every success, and every success or failure starts from the mind.
He commended the Governor for his courageous leadership, which, according to him, has made it possible for him to reclaim a 72 – hectre gully erosion site and transforming it into a world class tourism facility.
Rev Amaowoh enumerated some essentials to courageous living and actions including; avoiding too many friends and sharing one’s vision with many people, as such could hinder execution.
He urged the people to always think success, not failure; victory, not defeat, emphasizing that whatever one envisions can become a reality.
