Just Like Jesus: Gov. Udom Emmanuel is a miracle worker.



Jesus Christ had performed great wonders while on Earth. Among these were feeding of the five thousand people with five loaves of bread and two fishes, turning water into wine, healing the leprous man at the pool of Bethsida after 28years, raising of Centurion's servant from the grave and these, he was nicknamed " the miracle worker".

Gov. Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State has in the past three years and nine months through his developmental strides restructured the state, thereby making it one of the most developed cities in West Africa. Akwa Ibom which in 2011 was portrayed as a citadel for kidnapping, assassination and other anti-social activities has today been enlisted as one of the most peaceful cities in Africa, most peaceful in West Africa and Nigeria respectively. This is one of his remarkable achievements as the number one citizen of the State. Anyone who's disputing that this isn't an achievement, should take a walk to Borno, Kaduna and Benue States respectively.

One of the outstanding miracles of Christ was feeding of the multitudes with only five loaves of bread and two fishes while in Desert. Before now, Akwa Ibom was an industrial desert. There was no sign that any industry could successfully thrive but today, Gov. Udom Emmanuel has attracted 15industries into the State and they're all thriving effectively. Akwa Ibom has become the emergence of an Africa's industrial hub. No wonder the Emir of Kano, Sanusi Sanusi had nicknamed him " a Miracle Worker".

If everyone would forget the numerous miracles performed by Christ, no one would forget the woman with the issue of blood. The woman had roamed the entire world seeking for a lasting solution for her infamy but was rejected by all, even families and friends. Everyone had given up on her because of her condition, but courtesy of faith, her story changed when she met Jesus Christ of Nazareth. This was indeed this lady's case, but upon meeting with Gov. Udom Emmanuel, the passionate and miracle worker, her story changed.

For twelve years, this beautiful woman has been this way. Families and friends had given up on her. From her narrative,, she had visited almost all the public servants in 2013, but no one of them accepted to help her. But because she had faith in God, she decided to attain the Governorship campaign rally in Ukanafun two days ago. There, she was taken to the governor and immediately, the governor ordered that a surgery be made. Today, her story has changed. What a manner of man is Gov. Udom Emmanuel!

Gov. Udom Emmanuel has also paid N14m for the operation of almost ten people with kidney problem. Their monthly drugs and checkup are also the responsibilities of the governor, but there's nowhere you'll find the governor bragging of his kind gesture. This is to reaffirm what a lot of people have been saying,, Govdom Emmanuel is not politicizing humanity.
