Rt. Hon. Bassey, who received the newly commissioned officers in his office on Tuesday, expressed delight over their feat at the Academy, saying “it is a thing of joy and gladness to have Akwa Ibom sons aspire to this height. This is in line with the Dakkada philosophy of Governor Udom Emmanuel.”

He also appealed for “some levels of empowerment to alleviate the challenges faced by young officers after passing out including accommodation, mobility and logistics.”

While thanking the Speaker for his support and encouragement, ASP Etim said “a push to assist more Akwa Ibom indigenes gain admission into the Academy will also be highly valued knowing that in the near future; we are the breed of officers that will take charged.”
