NDDC
Managing
Director of the commission, Mr. Nsima Ekere, said this in Ikot Ekpene during
the flag-off of the entrepreneurship/agricultural disbursement grants for Akwa
Ibom North-West Senatorial District initiated by Senator Godswill
Akpabio.
Ekere, who
is also the governorship candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC, in the
state, said the agency was working in tandem with the Small and Medium
Enterprise Development Agency of Nigeria, SMEDAN, to establish the
centre, to train, mentor and empower the youths.
He said:
“NDDC is about development and creating jobs to banish poverty.
“What would
you have expected from the uncommon Senator? Little wonder the people of Ikot
Ekpene Senatorial District declared that wherever he goes, they will go with
him. I am not surprised that this Senatorial District loves Senator Godswill
Akpabio.”
He expressed
delight at the support given to him by the people of the senatorial district,
declaring that, with similar support from the other two senatorial districts,
his victory in the 2019 election was assured.
He promised
to complete the Ikot Ekpene – Uyo Road, Four Points-By-Sheraton Hotel in
Ikot Ekpene. He also pledged to build the international market in Ikot Ekpene,
if elected governor.
“We must
showcase Ikot Ekpene as the commercial city of Akwa Ibom State,” Ekere said.
