The Speaker of the Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Udeme Otong, on Thursday announced his backing for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s reelection for a second term in office.

“All of us have said Tinubu is doing very well, and we are going to support Tinubu for his second term, and you know, this second term is just for the South.

“The Northerners have got their eight years, so the South must also have theirs.

But Tinubu is doing very well.

“As the Speaker of Akwa Ibom state, there’s no time the governor has brought any loan facility request for us to approve for him.

“So that means the President is doing very well for making sure that the governors in each of the states have a lot of money to manage the state, and that’s why you see peace everywhere.”
