“Given our formidable antecedents as a party with an unblemished record and principle of participatory democracy, social justice and equal opportunities for all citizens, your entry into our great party is a significant milestone in the party’s quest to rebuild and strengthen YPP ahead of the 2023 General Elections and beyond.
“I have utmost confidence that you will use YPP as a vehicle to enthrone rapid economic, social and infrastructural development in Akwa Ibom State.”
Ubah added that having worked closely Akpan as Vice Chairman, Senate Committee on Petroleum Resources(Upstream), he has an unflinching conviction that his entry into the party will yield tremendous results.
He said: “Together, we will work to steer YPP to greater heights and realign our people to the moving train of democracy and restoration of good governance to the country.”
