Earlier in his welcome remarks, the Ward Chairman, Mr Mfon Christopher thanked God for the enablement given to the party to acquire the Secretariat.

He commended the APC governorship flag bearer, Obong Nsima Ekere for his relentless support and pledged that they will work to ensure that President Muhammadu Buhari and all candidates of the party are voted in the next year's general elections.

Highpoint  of the event was also the official reception of defectors numbering 241 who left the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP to find alliance with the APC.
