The 2023 PDP Candidate for Itu/Ibiono Ibom Federal Constituency in the Green Chamber of the National Assembly, Rt. Hon. Ime Okon has consulted his kinsmen in Idung Ition, Ibiono Ibom Local Government Area comprising Ikot Usen, Ibiaku Ikot Udom, Usuk Ibiaku, Ikpa Ikot Ubo and Use Ndon villages.
He was accompanied by his wife, Deaconess Victoria Ime Okon, the Itu/Ibiono Ibom Unity Project 2023 Campaign Council and other supporters on Thursday.
The Village Head of Ikot Usen ably represented by Etubom Ebong Umo, Chairman of the Village Council said the support of the village is solely for the political ambition of their son on PDP platform. In the same vein, the representative of the Village Head of Ibiaku Ikot Udom, Eld Bassey Okon Udofia and the Village Head of Usuk Ibiaku, Etteidung Udo Udo Ekong said the ambition of Rt. Hon. Ime Bassey Okon is a long awaited cause which they are very glad to support.
Also, the Village Head of Ikpa Ikot Ubo, Etteidung David Archibong Ekpenyong and that of Use Ndon Village, Chief Aniedi Okon Etim said the good they enjoy in the local communities are effected by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), hence, the people are committed to give their support to the party which services the needs of the people.
The PDP Chapter Chairman of Ibiono Ibom, Hon Enobong Ekong urged the people to give total support to Rt Hon Ime Okon and all other PDP Candidates in the forthcoming elections as the party is the only party which reaches out to the people at all times not just during elections.
The DG of the Itu/Ibiono Ibom Unity Project 2023 Campaign Council, Comrade Godwin Mbeke said the visit is to officially intimate the Elders, Women and Youths of the political outing of their son who seeks their support. He added that it is deserving for their son to be the PDP flagbearer for the Itu/Ibiono Ibom Green Chamber's job as he was the most qualified and is not a fair-weather party man.
Addressing his kinsmen, the Candidate, Rt. Hon. Ime Bassey Okon said he has to start from home to officially inform his people that he was given the PDP flag after emerging winner during the party primary to contest for the Itu/Ibiono Ibom Federal Constituency in the 2023 elections.
He said there is no other party in Ibiono Ibom which has left indelible footprints which have added value to lives than PDP. He swiftly recounted few of his achievements while serving in the Ibiono Ibom Local Government Council as Transition Chairman and member of the State House of Assembly.
The Legal Luminary said many of Ibiono Ibom indigenes have gained employment while he served in these public offices. Also, communities have benefited from infrastructural and social amenities by the help of God through him including construction and renovation of village halls and classrooms, award of scholarship and skills acquisition.
"The cleanest water in Ikot Udom where the people enjoy till date is courtesy of these offices while I served. Also, the construction and renovation of Community Secondary School, Ikot Usen was enabled by me. There are many more which it will not be ideal to start recounting them one after the other because of scarcity of time. But they are all in the records for posterity."
He promised to do more when elected to represent Itu/Ibiono Ibom people in the Green Chamber during the 2023 General elections.
Elders, Women and the Youths unanimously declared their support for the success of their son, Rt. Hon. Ime Okon.
Highpoint of the consultation was the prayers offered by elders, women and youths of the five villages towards the success of the cause.
Present were; Members of the Itu/Ibiono Ibom Unity Project 2023 Campaign Council, Councillors, Ward Coordinators, Elders, Women Leaders, Youths and other supporters.
