In his response, the Senate President thanked him for the visit and promised to also work with him in the overall interest of the state. He lauded him for opening a new chapter in the governance of the state by making “old things to pass away.””
“”This is the governor of my state. I am told you are a man of peace. May peace reign in your tenure. Even if you did not come to see me, I would have come to see you.
“I was a minister for three years. I wrote several letters to the state during the COVID 19 pandemic. I built everything you see in the Government House complex.
“”We must eschew politics of bitterness and play politics of sensibility. Security men were warned not to collect the letter seeking audience with the then governor else they will be sacked.
“It was humiliating but today the rejected stone has become the Chief corner stone. When you emerged as governor, I resolved to support you. You are an agent of change and I pray God to grant you good health.
“Create your own path, don’t inherit anybody’s enemy. I will work with you. I will support you in every way possible. We have finished election. Governance is next. You have started well,” Akpabio remarked.
