Still playing his role as a compassionate leader, Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, yesterday, paid a condolence visit to the family of late Sylvanus Ukpong, the Chief Executive Officer of Emem Farms Limited and Emem & Sons Limited, who lost his life, two weeks ago, while returning from his farm.


Governor Eno was  deeply touched as he consoled the bereaved family. 


“Honestly, this is not the kind of visit I will like to be doing. This is the second time within one week that I am doing ths, and I am heartbroken. 


“I have come here today, on behalf of the Government and people of our dear State, to show our compassion and to console the family. 


“I want to assure them, government will rally round the family at this time of their bereavement.


“ I am made to understand that the late Slyvanus Ukpong has a daughter, Emem Sylvanus Ukpong who is an SS1 Student. 


“We will quickly institute a scholarship scheme  up to the university level for her. The Secretary to the State Government will handle this. The funds will be managed by her mother.


“ I also understand her mother, the widow, is currently unemployed and is a trained teacher. We need more trained teachers, so we are offering her an automatic employment into the State Civil Service.”


The Governor also used the opportunity to assure the people that the state is continually safe and peaceful. 


“For every criminal that operates  or intends to operate in this State, I promise you that you will be caught and dealt with according to the law. 

We will make this State exceedingly uncomfortable for them to operate.


“Let me say this, soon, I  will be signing an Executive Order wherein any house that secretly harbors criminals will be demolished and the owners prosecuted.” He said in conclusion.
