The UK-based healthcare professional noted that the orderly, rancour-free and peaceful atmosphere recorded throughout the exercises marked a major departure from the tension, violence and confusion that previously characterised party primaries in the state.

According to him, the successful conduct of the elections across the 31 local government areas reflected deliberate leadership, effective coordination and the growing unity currently existing among stakeholders within the party structure under Governor Eno’s leadership.

He particularly applauded Prince Uwah, who served as Chairman of the APC Primaries Election Committee in the state, for what he described as exemplary leadership, fairness and commitment towards ensuring credibility, transparency and smooth coordination throughout the exercises.

Akparawa Essien stated that the peaceful outcome of the primaries has further strengthened public confidence in the party and demonstrated the capacity of the current leadership to manage political processes without chaos, intimidation or breakdown of order.

He added that the atmosphere of harmony and political stability presently being experienced in Akwa Ibom State has continued to attract goodwill and wider acceptance across party lines, expressing optimism that the development would further position the APC strongly ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The mental health practitioner further described the conduct of the exercises as a positive signal for democratic growth and peaceful political engagement in the state, maintaining that stability within the political space remains critical to sustainable development and public confidence.

He prayed for greater wisdom and strength for the leadership of the party while expressing confidence that the peaceful spirit witnessed during the primaries would translate into greater progress and electoral success for the APC in Akwa Ibom State and beyond.
