The member representing Ukanafun/Oruk Anam Federal Constituency and Chairman, House Committee on Public Procurement, Rep. Unyime Idem, has facilitated the employment of five Akwa Ibomites into the Federal Fire Service.
The beneficiaries are:
- Enyongama Joseph Udiang
- Agnes Emmanuel Samuel
- Love Friday Alexander
- Uforo Aniefiok Udofia
- Nsikak Sunday Usoro
Idem, who handed the beneficiaries their employment letters in his office at the National Assembly Complex, Abuja, charged them to be good ambassadors of Akwa Ibom state in their new places of work.
The new employees have completed their training exercise and have been posted to their respective stations.
“It is my firm belief that in the next 10 to 15 years, we will have Akwa Ibomites as directors, permanent secretaries, and others in top management positions in the federal government. This way, we’ll be sure to attract federal presence, projects, and programmes to Akwa Ibom state and lessen the burden on the state government.”
“We will also be able to close the quota gap where only a few Akwa Ibomites are in managerial positions in federal MDAs,” Idem said.
Responding, the beneficiaries thanked the federal lawmaker for facilitating their employment and vowed to make him and the state proud by their lifestyle and performance in their new placed of work.
