MRS. ETIEBIET DELIVERING DIVIDENDS OF ARISE AGENDA TO HER PEOPLE
If there’s one commissioner in Akwa Ibom State who has worked tirelessly to make both her boss and people proud, she’s Mrs. Idongesit Etiebiet.
Mrs. Etiebiet is not that appointee who makes noise about her modest achievements as the commissioner for education but allows her achievements to speak for her.
Mrs Idongesit Etiebet, Honourable Commissioner for Education
After her boss made a statement yesterday, taunting some of her colleagues who are fond of saying ‘ke mkpo ibaga’ and that the governor has not released money, I took a dive into her political closets to see what she has been able to do for her people, especially this Christmas season.
Behold, my personal findings have afforded me ample opportunity to know that Mrs. Etiebiet has not only done Christmas for her people but has empowered and facilitated empowerment for her people.
The education commissioner, as of today, has secured employment for over 30 indigenes of Oruk Anam, locally and nationally, and the recent one where she secured employment in the Nigerian Navy for her constituent broke Camel’s back. This, she did even without blowing the trumpet, but I have made the findings to know what she has done so far, and I got to know about it, I must bring it out for the public to also know.
To strengthen the bond within the party structure in her local government, Mrs. Etiebiet spent about approximately N3m. for party exco in all the wards in the Oruk Anam local government area, Chapter Exco inclusive. She also spent on Ward Leaders where she chose them this time. She practically spent N1.4m in Ward 1 alone, the biggest ward.
Mma commissioner, In her quest to support her people, has also funded many weddings and funerals, paid school fees and maternity bills, and given business support to entrepreneurs.
Permit me to say that unlike some of her colleagues who have been singing ‘Mkpo Ibaga’, the woman has been giving and giving, and giving as such, deserves commendation and should be exonerated.
