REP. IDEM FACILITATES EMPLOYMENT OF AKWA IBOM SONS INTO NATIONAL IDENTITY MANAGEMENT COMMISSION (NIMC)*
The Member representing Ukanafun/Oruk Anam Federal Constituency and Chairman, Public Procurement Committee, Rep. Unyime Idem, has facilitated the employment of two Akwa Ibomites into the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC).
With this, Rep. Idem is gradually meeting his target to facilitate employment for 1000 Akwa Ibomites into strategic Federal Ministries, Departments and Agencies, MDAs in 2025.
The beneficiaries are;
*Emmanuel Sylvester Ntefreh*
*Itoro Effiong Ekwere*
Recall that last weekend, the Ukanafun/Oruk Anam Federal Lawmaker handed employment letters to three Akwa Ibomites who had just been employed into the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST).
Handing them their employment letters in his office at the National Assembly Complex, Abuja, Rep. Idem congratulated the beneficiaries, and charged them to be good ambassadors of Akwa Ibom state in their new workplace and exhibit passion, commitment sincerity, and other virtues as may be expected of them.
“This is part of fulfillment of my promise to facilitate 1000 jobs for Akwa Ibomites into strategic Federal Ministries, Departments and Agencies, MDAs, in 2025. I will implement this alongside my sponsorship of overseas training for 100 Akwa Ibom people, which I instituted in 2024.”
“Be passionate about your job. You can’t succeed without passion. Be committed. Be sincere. Sincere people make impact, not only in the world of work, but wherever they find themselves. Sincerity brings promotion and elevation. Above all, put God first in all you do. I am a product of God’s grace. You can be that too, in your place of work.”
“Be available. Be good ambassadors of Akwa Ibom state. Be our ears there. Give us information that will help us harness more opportunities for our people.”
“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 able to attract federal presence such as 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, Emmanuel Ntefreh and Itoro Ekwere 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 place of work.
