Governor Eno made these remarks during a "Thank You Meeting" with Christian Leaders in the State, held at the Banquet Hall in the Government House, Uyo.
He reassured the group of his dedication to leading a unified and prosperous Akwa Ibom State to validate the trust placed in him by the church and the people during the recent gubernatorial election.
Governor Eno commits to development of Akwa Ibom State
Governor Eno acknowledged the challenges faced by the nation due to the removal of oil subsidies but assured that his administration would prioritise the efficient use of available resources for the benefit of the general populace rather than squandering them on non-essential expenditures.
He said:
“When I say there is no money, I mean there is no money to throw around but there is money to do good things. There is money to do every good thing. Money to do investments will not be a problem in this state.
"Money by itself is a scarce commodity. If you throw money around like that, it will lose its value”.
The governor expressed his gratitude to the clergymen for maintaining unity within the church community, emphasising the importance of transcending political and ethnic affiliations to align with his administration's inclusive approach.
He said:
“What the devil is trying to do is to dissipate us, and when we start fighting, they rejoice. Let’s look for them and tell them that politics is over. Let’s bring people back. Let’s build a united church so that we can have our strength.
“Let us join hands and support the Government. What the devil is trying to do is to dissipate us, and when we start fighting, they rejoice.”
Ex-minister Amaechi speaks after Tinubu’s Supreme Court victory
In another report, the former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, ended his silence from the public domain.
This comes less shortly after the Supreme Court's confirmation of President Bola Tinubu as the victor in the 2023 presidential election.
In an opaque and sarcastic reaction to the verdict, Amaechi said nothing matters anymore in Nigeria, and Nigerians don't react to issues even when they know the truth.
