UDOM IN HISTORY: ENDING THE CIVIL SERVICE CYCLE

Emmanuel Nicholas –

The prowess and strength of a man defines him and gives him a description among the people. Life is so important when the history we leave behind becomes the road map to exemplary tutorship for the generation after us to follow. Many see the world as a place where we come in and display our conscience and that’s exactly what it ought to be.
But there is more to it than envisaged, because the world is a place where we come in to erect a wall after our name so, when departing, many will read from our walls, the effectiveness of our existence on the planet, earth. It is therefore not important whether we put our conscience to work because some men are without conscience so, it could be said that life is a place we are either compelled to act the acceptable morals or we thrive in our evil to impose stigmatization on our offspring after us, whom the world will be alive to tell them of your evil deeds and also stigmatize them because they believe that the same blood of wickedness that flowed in the blood stream of their ancestors also flow in them.
As some scientific research shows that habit is genetic, not only in science that has been proven but in the traditional African society it is also a proven fact that a woman who did not stay in her husband’s house or marry more than one husband the daughters will behave the same way, and this leads to stigmatization of her female children by suitors.
Still in African Societies , men who have become leaders and their reigns were counted as historic when it comes to selflessness and positive impact on the people , the offspring are always given a leeway to lead , because it is believed that they will exhibit good leadership traits that are people oriented, just as their fore fathers did . This has also been proven scientifically, as the Plato leadership research explained that leadership is genetic. So, on the other side there are men of high morals who are ready at all times to positively impact on our society , they are selfless, generous ,humble ,honest and kind hearted. This is where Mr Udom Emmanuel has his footage, because positive leadership is an infection in his blood and this was ‘communicated’ to his blood by his legendry father , Elder Gabriel Emmanuel Nkenang , a respectable head teacher .
People oriented leadership is that leadership which policies and projects are driven to add value to the lives of the masses and elevate the community standards of development while eradicating suffering from the citizenry.
But most times wrong personalities come into leadership position to lead to ruin their land and leave the people to languish in penury.
This is where and how I end my long preamble e with the foot note that the Udom Emmanuel leadership in Akwa Ibom State is exemplary because he is superlatively transforming the land and the people.
Udom has reengineered leadership by taking governance to the people through free, qualitative and compulsory Education , Free healthcare for children under five, pregnant women and the elderly, the empowerment of the people through Integrated Farmers scheme, SME loans , training of youth abroad ,portable water for rural communities, electrification of rural communities , construction of new class room blocks and reconstruction of depilated ones across all public schools in the State, construction of cottage hospitals and general hospitals, provision of school desks, texts books, rural Roads to connect the Urban cities and the rural communities, dualization of major gateway in the State, Industrialization to create jobs and wealth, Agricultural revolution and allocation of inter-ministerial contracts to the people, are some of the direct impactful projects and polices of Udom’s administration to the people .
No leader can say he is a true leader when there is no evidence of his vision on the masses. The people should be the first to witness the development of any community, so any leader who develops the community without developing the people plans to fail because, when the people are starved they will take to violence or crime that will jeopardise whatever infrastructures put in place , therefore, it is imperative to develop the people along with the community. Between the land and the dwellers none should be left behind in development.
Governor Udom Emmanuel’s administration is imposing on the people strategies through polices, programmes and projects which mission is basically targeted at the masses’ development as well as the entire State. Mr Emmanuel refuses to act in tandem with leaders whose mission of aspiring to govern is egocentric, not people oriented.
A natural leader gives all his time and all resources of the State to rejuvenating social standard, living standard and the infrastructural development of their society and State.
The other day some visitors from the western region of Nigeria visited the State on inter-ethnic marriage to the State. While they were sitting at the pool side of the hotel facility they stayed , from a distance I heard them saying , “why are these people making noise in Lagos, look at roads, look at the beautification of the city, look at all the schools we saw on our way here, why are these APC people boasting about without visible structures?”
The king whose plight is put behind but the plights of his people are ever before him as hourly rosary prayers will always write his name on marble of unforgettable memories. This is what Governor is doing, his performance as the governor of Akwa Ibom state rewriting the history , industrialized Akwa Ibom and the Civil Service Akwa Ibom.
The impending economic reproach across the world is as a result of visionless leaders. Most leaders don’t have the vision, their only intention of leading is to break even by looting their treasury. A leader must be a man or women who have foreseen his mission to the land and the people he wish to lead, not coming to try to create vision while on the throne. An ordinary citizen could easily detect the flaws that could be fixed, which will turn around the economy than doing that while in power.
Udom Emmanuel came into the office with a blue print to revolutionize Akwa Ibom State and the people with Industrialization and Agricultural evolution to ensure food sufficiency, so that the residents and indigenes alike have enough food to eat and export to create wealth.
Most leaders believe not in empowering the masses so that they don’t compete with them during electioneering period , so that they continue to lord over them, inducing them with peanuts to buy their conscience and votes.
I made it clear that democracy in Africa is weakened by poverty, the people are not able to vote their conscience because their mentality is enslaved to penury and each time those wicked leaders come to them with bags of rice and flour, they sell their votes for food to survive.
Until poverty is eradicated from Africa and the living standard is improved , the people will not be able to vote for the good leaders but will vote for bad leaders out of hunger and starvation , as no hunger stricken man can think properly and act wisely .
So it is imperative to develop the people. If Africa wishes to have a strong democracy, then the living standard must be improved , where the people can be self-dependent, self-sufficient and are able to provide for their families, there and then , African democracy will be strong as the western democracy.
Governor Udom Emmanuel is erecting walls of memories that his name will not be forgotten, many generations to come will not sing without his name mentioned among the heroes of their land Udom is a leader with rich in virtues, vision and goals. He makes the development of Akwa Ibom and Nigeria his abiding addiction, breaking record of performance. After 2023, the history of Akwa Ibom will be mentioned according to the economic Status of the State , the then Civil service State and the industrialized Akwa Ibom State.
