Our Liberation Is Near, Says Etinan People

...As 1,047 defect to YPP family

The people of Etinan Local Government Area in Akwa Ibom State, have started celebrating what they call “liberation from years of misgovernance”.

At the unveiling of the Etinan chapter office of the Young Progressives Party (YPP) on Monday, August 30, 2022, the people expressed the hope that the incoming YPP government will change their fortunes for good.

The chapter chairman, Rev. Nkese Ekpot, in his welcome address, described the YPP as “the fastest growing party in Akwa Ibom” and asked God to bless all who defied the rain to grace the official commissioning of the party office in Etinan.

“We have been liberated. It is high time we said no to those who took us as fools. Despite their antics, Senator Bassey Albert Akpan will lead our state. OBA is our only hope, given his track record of achievements as Commissioner and Senator,” the chapter chairman emphasized.

Similarly, a former PDP stalwart, and Chairman of the Strategic Committee of the Akwa Ubok Abasi Campaign Organization, Bishop Andrew Unwanta, thanked the Etinan people for their love and assured them that OBA will not disappoint them.

“We trust the YPP so much, that is why our people on hearing that YPP was coming, came here in numbers despite the rain. We prefer fresh leaves to a tattered and irreparably spoilt umbrella.

“The people of Etinan will support the YPP. They will stand with the incoming Governor, OBA and all other candidates for the 2023 elections”.etinan liberation and YPP
