PRESS RELEASE

Enough of your Fabricated Ranting: Blessing Ossom Must Stop Exploiting Akwa Ibom Leaders for Desperate Self-Promotion

The attention of the Uyo Senatorial District Peoples' Initiative (Youth Wing) has been drawn to a recent Facebook live video by one Blessing Ossom from Nsit Atai, wherein she made reckless and unsubstantiated claims against the Secretary to the State Government, Prince Enobong Uwah.

Ordinarily, we would have ignored what clearly amounts to social media ranting. However, when an individual begins to drag the name of a dedicated public servant into imaginary conversations in a bid to whip up sentiment and manufacture crisis where none exists, silence becomes irresponsible.

We state clearly as follows:

1. The claims attributed to Prince Enobong Uwah regarding alterations to party structure, reduction of names, or manipulation of APC leadership in Uyo Federal Constituency are entirely fictitious. No such conversation, directive, or instruction exists to our knowledge.

2. It is mischievous and dangerous to randomly mention the Governor and the SSG in a manner calculated to suggest division within the APC or a breakdown of trust between the Governor and the Senate President, Distinguished Senator Godswill Akpabio. Such insinuations are false and deliberately provocative.

3. Prince Enobong Uwah remains focused on his statutory responsibilities, which is, translating the Governor’s ARISE Agenda into practical results for the people of Akwa Ibom State. 

4. He is not involved in petty factional politics nor in the sponsorship of disunity within any federal constituency.

5. The attempt to paint the SSG as selfish, divisive, or disloyal is a tired and desperate strategy. It is unfortunate that personal ambition or the quest for political relevance would drive anyone to deploy blackmail and psychological manipulation as tools. We caution Blessing Ossom to immediately desist from this pattern of conduct. Manufacturing imaginary conversations and invoking the names of respected leaders to create controversy is not activism; it is satanic behaviour.

6. Akwa Ibom State has moved beyond the era of bitterness and unnecessary political drama. The Governor, members of his cabinet and stakeholders are working in synergy with His Excellency, Pastor Umo Eno, Ph.D and Distinguished Senator Godswill Akpabio, GCON, to strengthen the party and ensure the reelection of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, while consolidating gains that position Senator Akpabio favourably for remain his position as the President of the Senate.

7. The peace and unity currently enjoyed within the party and across the 31 LGAs must not be undermined by attention-seeking theatrics. If Blessing Ossom has any grievance, there are established party channels to address concerns. Social media sensationalism is not one of them.

8. We therefore advise her, in her own interest, to stop dragging the name of Prince Enobong Uwah or any other leader into ill-conceived narratives. Prince Uwah should be allowed to concentrate on delivering on the ARISE Agenda of Governor Umo Eno without distraction.

9. Any further attempt to blackmail or malign any dedicated public servant in pursuit of personal relevance will not be condoned. Those engaging in such conduct are advised to desist immediately in the interest of peace, unity, and responsible political engagement.
