Yesterday in Obot Akara local government area, a retired principal, who served for many years as a Principal in Ibionno LGA of Akwa Ibom State, brought to the fore the other side of the Young Progressive Party (YPP)’s Governorship candidate in the upcoming governorship election in the state, Senator Bassey Albert, that many don’t know about.
Chief (Mr) Ubeng, who doubled as the political adviser of Nto edino clan, of of the three clans that made up Obot Akara LGA revealed to the chagrin crowd that he got endeared to OBA because of his magnanimity and unparalleled generosity in providing scholarship to every student in Ibiono Ibom, who gained admission into an institution of higher learning irrespective of their political affinity or any difference. The retired Principal reiterated that this is not something that someone told him, but as a Principal in the secondary schools in Ibiono for many years, he witnessed virtually every student that passed out from the many secondary schools he administered getting a scholarship courtesy OBA once they received and can tender their admission letter from any higher institution in the country, including abroad.
The
former Principal stated that this is a tradition that he hasn’t seen with any
politician in Akwa Ibom State. He further pointed out that that act alone is
the motivating factor that made him decide to come and identify with YPP and
OBA aspirations to govern the state, stating that OBA will be a good and
compassionate governor of the state. He called on the people of Obot Akara to
give their vote in block to OBA, assuring them that their future and that of
their children is guaranteed with OBA as the governor.
