The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Akwa Ibom State has dedicated its victory at the just concluded presidential and National Assembly elections to God.
State Chairman of the Party, Paul Ekpo in a statement congratulated all the winners, saluted those who were not successful and invited them to join forces with the winners to build a stronger and better state and country.
Ekpo noted “With the conclusion of collation and the declaration of winners across 9 federal constituencies and the 3 Senatorial districts in our state, and the overwhelming victory that our party has recorded, it is only fitting and apt that we dedicate this victory to the Alpha and Omega, the cornerstone of our campaign and the author of our victory.
“When we started this campaign, we christened it Divine Mandate-only God and dedicated it to the God of Heaven.
While others trusted in horses and chariots, we trusted in the Lord and today, we have been vindicated. To God alone, we return all our praise, glory and adoration,” he said.
The state chairman said doors of the party will always remain open to all who are interested in joining them to build an enduring legacy of peace and prosperity in the state.

He thanked Akwa Ibom people for the confidence reposed in the party as the platform through which they can build an Akwa Ibom of limitless and endless opportunities, free from all forms of vices.
He enjoined all citizens of Akwa Ibom to continue to stand with the PDP in all elections, especially the Governorship and House of Assembly elections scheduled for March 9, 2019.
He expressed deep gratitude to the leader of the party and Mr Udom Emmanuel, for his God-centred leadership, maturity, focus and good hearted disposition saying the entire membership of the party was very proud to have a leader like him.
“Our party men and women deserve all the gratitude we can offer. They braved the odds and withstood intimidation and harassment. Unjustified arrests and assault did not deter them. We will always strive to build a party that will have the capacity to accommodate as many interests as possible.
“This indeed is a historic moment for every Akwa Ibom person who by this token has demonstrated indeed that sovereignty lies with the people.
