The member representing Etung State Constituency in the Cross River State House of Assembly (CRSHA), Hon. Kingsley Ntui Isong, has dedicated his victory in the 2023 General Elections to God Almighty, during a special Thanksgiving Service.
He also empowered hundreds of women across the political wards of Etung Local Government Area.
Held on December 15th, 2024, at Message Point Assembly, St. Anthony Primary School, Ajassor Mission, the Thanksgiving Service was officiated by Apostle Bassey Udosen, Senior Pastor of Message Point Assembly.
In his sermon, Apostle Udosen emphasized that Hon. Ntui’s victory at the polls was divinely orchestrated, underscoring the importance of gratitude and thanksgiving to God.
Speaking at the event, Hon. Cyril James Omini, member representing Yakurr I State Constituency and Chairman of the House Committee on Finance and Appropriation, praised Hon. Ntui’s commitment to responsibility and teamwork.
“He is a fearless leader, a team player, and a man who pursues his beliefs with determination,” he said, commending his colleague for his impactful leadership.
In a show of appreciation to God and commitment to community development, Hon. Ntui donated a substantial sum to establish a branch of Message Point Assembly in Ajassor Community. Beyond spiritual investments, he also empowered women across the ten political wards of Etung, distributing high-quality wrappers and fabrics to ten women per ward.
Traditional leaders were not left out, as Clan Heads and Chiefs were adorned with Ejagham Traditional Attires, a gesture symbolizing unity and cultural pride as the Christmas season approaches.
A highlight of the event was the conferment of the prestigious Chieftaincy title of “Ntufam Osanghane 1 of Ajassor Community” on Hon. Ntui by the Paramount Ruler-Elect of Etung, His Royal Majesty Ntufam Anthony Ntui Etta. The title reflects his contributions to the community and his status as a leader dedicated to the well-being of his constituents.
The event drew prominent figures from across the state, including the Executive Governor of Cross River State, Senator Prince Bassey Edet Otu, who was competently represented, and the Etung Women Network (E-Net) and the Etung Mainstream Organisation.
Other dignitaries included members of the National Assembly, a serving minister from the state (represented), and members of the Cross River State House of Assembly, led by the Speaker who was represented by the deputy speaker.
In his remarks, the Governor’s representative applauded Hon. Ntui for his dedication to service and urged other leaders to emulate his exemplary leadership style.
The carnival-like event also featured cultural displays and performances, highlighting the rich heritage of the Ejagham people.
