Tinubu was seen dancing as the song played at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo, where he attended a reception and rally organised in his honour.\n<\/p>\n
The President was in the state to inaugurate projects executed by Governor Umo Eno\u2019s administration.\n<\/p>\n
The rally attracted party supporters and political leaders, with the governor using the occasion to pledge two million votes for Tinubu\u2019s re-election in 2027.<\/p>\n
Eno said Akwa Ibom would deliver the votes if the Federal Government fulfilled its promise to deliver the long-awaited Ibom Deep Seaport.<\/p>\n
\u201cGive us Ibom Deep Seaport, we will deliver two million votes. This deep seaport is capable of unlocking the economy of the state, the South-South region and Nigeria at large,\u201d the governor said.\n<\/p>\n
Responding to the request, Tinubu announced his approval of the project.<\/p>\n
\u201cI heard from my friend, my governor, my pastor, on behalf of the people and leadership of Akwa Ibom, request for Ibom\u2019s deep-sea port,\u201d he said.\n<\/p>\n
After asking the crowd, \u201cWill you vote?\u201d, the President declared, \u201cOkay, It\u2019s approved.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
The Ibom Deep Seaport was conceived during the administration of former Governor Victor Attah as the Ibaka Deep Seaport and Industrial City.\n<\/p>\n
The project is expected to boost maritime activities, create jobs and open Akwa Ibom to international trade and investment.\n<\/p>\n
