In line with his promise, Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno has handed over a remodeled fully-furnished six-bedroom bungalow to the family of Late Nollywood make-up artiste, Abigail Edith Frederick, in Ikot Udoma, Eket Local Government Area.
The Governor has also donated a business support grant of one million naira to the family and an additional one million naira as an educational grant to her two younger sisters.
The Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Mr. Frank Archibong, who represented the Governor recalled how, on February 13, 2024, Governor Eno personally visited the grieving family where he offered automatic employment to the deceased’s elder sister, promised assistance to the undergraduate sisters and directed his aide on Humanitarian Services to renovate the family house and bring it up to modern standards.
He noted that “Pastor Umo Eno embodies empathy and joy, consistently supporting Akwa Ibomites in need.”
Mr Archibong emphasized that the Governor’s actions weren’t politically motivated but a demonstration of who he is.
“If empathy or joy has a name, it would have been Pastor Umo Eno, because he always rises to the occasion whenever any Akwa Ibomite is in need”.
You will recall that the late Abigail Edith Frederick was part of the crew that died early this year in a tragic boat mishap that also took the life of popular actor Junior Pope
