The Assistant Youth Leader,  Uyo Senatorial District of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Akwa Ibom State, Barr. Itohowo Ibe Bassey, has sued for unity and loyalty from party faithful in Ibiono Ibom Local Government Area.

Barr. Bassey made the call on Friday, during a familiarity meeting with the Ibiono Ibom PDP Family, made up of Chapter Executive, Ward Chairmen and Ward Youth Leaders.

While thanking the Chapter leadership of the party for honouring his invitation, Barr. Bassey called for more support for the Leader of the Party and Governor of Akwa Ibom State, His Excellency, Pastor Umo Eno, as well as the State Chairman of the PDP, Rt. Hon.
