Mr Eno was sworn-in as the fifth governor of Akwa Ibom State on 29 May, 2023 at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo.
1. I stand here as a product of God’s awesome grace, a testament of His enduring love, and as an instrument of blessings in His steady and dependable Hands. I therefore, dedicate this day to the Almighty God, to you my dear people, who, in spite of the welter of falsehoods, of manufactured lies, vile and morally objectionable propaganda woven about me and my capacity to serve you as your Governor, you chose truth over lies and decided to A.R.I.S.E. with our vision.
5. Standing here this afternoon, my fellow Akwaibomites, and fully conscious of this inspirational moment, I cannot help but get a little emotional. I am in awe of the grace that has located me, I am in awe of the blessings of the Lord in my life.
9. Let me at this time, thank my dear Wife and our First Lady, Pastor Patience Umo Eno, my wonderful Children and their spouses, my siblings. Thank you for standing by me and urging me to march on when my spirits needed those critical doses of filial prayers and support and for constantly assuring me that what God has started in praise cannot end in shame, To my Deputy Governor, H.E.
13. To the Akwaibomites in the Diaspora, thank you for your support. I am eternally grateful to our Traditional Fathers, and our Elder statesmen, especially our former Governor, Arc Victor Attah. 17.
