Why I want to be Governor – Nya Ebito

Founder of House of God Ministries Apostle Nya Ebito has given reasons why he wants to succeed Governor Godswill Akpabio in 2015. The Oro born clergy stated this when he had an interaction with newsmen in his residence near Ewet Housing Estate.

Nya Ebito while extolling the qualities of Governor Godswill Akpabio which he described as legendary, hints that he has a burden of ensuring that he continues the development strides of the state governor. He noted that Akwa Ibom State is rich in terms of human and material resources and it will take someone like him to ensure that he collate all those resources to the betterment of Akwa Ibom people.

On the issue of zoning, the seasoned clergyman informed without mincing words that since Uyo Senatorial District had govern the state in Obong victor Attah for eight years and then succeeded by Godswill Akpabio from Ikot Ekpene Senatorial District who will also run for eight years, it will only be natural for the state to support someone from Eket Senatorial District to succeed Governor Godswill Akpabio.

Nya Ebito speaking further maintained that he is yet to start shouting his name to the press but that the truth of the matter is that he is a governorship aspirant in Akwa Ibom State and that he is firmly on ground. “The truth of the matter is that, I am a governorship aspirant in Akwa Ibom State, I have been consulting with those who matter in this business for now. You know we have to start with the nomination process before the general election”. He argued.

The reverend man of God said his blueprints will include creating an enabling environment to ensure that the people acquire high level skills both within and outside the country so that most of the youths will be employed or become employers of labour, said he will take the issue of employment very seriously. He also maintained that the issue of power supply in the state will be given a very due consideration. He spoke on security and said so far efforts by the Akpabio led government to curb insecurity is highly commendable and that he will not rest on his oars until insecurity is completely stamped out in the state.

He promised to revive all the ailing industries in the state as according to him, these industries will ensure that there is investor driven economy in the state. The governorship hopeful hinted that every section of the state will be treated with utmost respect and regards. He furthermore promised to revisit the oil mineral producing area issue which he observed will promote the economy of the state.

Nya Ebito noted that he will run the 2015 governorship race because he is prepared to ensure that good leadership of Akwa Ibom State transcends beyond 2015.

He called on the people of the state to eschew all forms of bitterness, hatred, ethnicity and go for the best material which according to him, is in himself.
