Marginalization: Provost Slams PDP Leadership

-
The Provost Federal School of Medical Laboratory Science, Jos, Plateau State, Dr. Nkereuwem Etukudoh has descended heavily on the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for denying the people of Midim Clan in Abak Local Government Area the opportunity to produce the Candidate for Abak State Constituency seat.
 Dr. Etukudoh who spoke as the Chairman of Midim Day Celebration organized by Eka Midim Community at Comprehensive Secondary School, Midim lamented that despite the support given to Mr. Udom Emmanuel by the people of Midim Clan during the 2015 general election and subsequent support to his administration, Midim people have been short-changed and have not fared better either in elective or appointment. “I am aware of the complaints and agitation of Midim people against Governor Udom Emmanuel's administration. Truly, there is not gainsaying that Midim people have been shortchanged and have not fared better either in elective positions or appointment. Up to this moment, I cannot understand clearly why the forth-coming Abak State Constituency seat earlier zoned to Midim Clan by PDP was later upturned by powers that be. To us, this is a bitter lesson. Nevertheless, we are grateful to Mr. President for graciously acceded to the yearning of our people, thus APC has zoned the forth-coming Abak State Constituency seat of the House of Assembly Election to Midim Clan”, the Provost stated.

As the people celebrate, the Provost urged them to work to sustain the culture of trust, excellence, integrity, love, peace, togetherness, social stability, integration, co-operation, generosity and general harmony that they often cherished as great ideals.
Dr. Etukudoh used the occasion to commend President Buhari for always working to serve the interests of the people and for finding him fit to continue in his capacity as the Provost/CEO of Federal School of Medical Laboratory Technology (Science), Jos.
He pointed out that the Buhari administration has demonstrated single-minded commitment to upgrading and developing Nigeria's transport, power and health infrastructure and has also suspended the eight-year tenure policy of the Federal Government as related to MDAs, thus enabling Federal Directors and Permanent Secretaries to continue in office till retirement age.
The Provost also lauded the improved economic indices, rising investment in agriculture, ongoing passionate efforts to improve security in the North-Central region of the country among others.
While wishing President Buhari a peaceful campaign visit to Akwa Ibom State, Dr. Etukudoh assured that he will not only vote for him, but will mobilize his people to give President Buhari massive votes to enable him win the 2019 Presidential election. Dr. Etukudoh was honoured at the occasion for his selfless contribution to the development of the community in particular and humanity at large.

By UbongAbasi Ise "Eat and remember the soil because it is human's brother' - Ibibio Proverbs There is a distinct community amongst the 22 villages of Offot Ukwa Clan called Uyo Village. This is the village where Mr. Udom Emmanuel, as Akwa Ibom State governor, is having his office. This village hosts the state judiciary headquarters, Police "A" Division, Nigerian Prisons, Fire Service, State Library headquarters, Uyo local government council, Anchor Insurance, Ibom Plaza, banks, and motley of business organizations. This community is the root of Uyo metropolis, the seat of Akwa Ibom State government. Ironically, this village has never had any indigene appointed as a commissioner into the state cabinet before. None of the indigenes has ever been a Permanent Secretary to any of the state ministries. They are not appointed into boards. They are also eluded by government contracts. More shockingly, no indigene of Uyo village has ever been elected Chair
