The Executive Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Pastor Umo Eno, has paid a condolence visit to the family of the late National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, Etimbuk Daniel, following his recent passing at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Awgu, Enugu State.
The deceased, Etimbuk Daniel, was a prominent youth leader and a former President of the Students’ Union Government (SUG) at the Akwa Ibom State University (AKSU) prior to his deployment for the mandatory national service.
His sudden demise during the orientation program sent shockwaves through the academic and student communities across the state.
Demonstrating personal leadership and solidarity, Governor Umo Eno traveled on Sunday to the family compound in Ikot Etim, located in Ukanafun Local Government Area.
During the visit, the governor personally expressed his deep condolences to the bereaved family and pledged the full support of the state government during this tragic period.
Addressing the grieving family, Governor Eno emphasized that he felt it was necessary to personally identify with their pain and stand by them, ensuring they do not feel isolated during such a difficult time.
This personal visit followed an earlier official government delegation that the governor had dispatched on October 13 to commiserate with the family on behalf of the state.
The governor’s visit stands as a testament to his compassion and steadfast commitment to the welfare of Akwa Ibom citizens.
By offering direct comfort to the family in the wake of such a heartbreaking loss, the administration underscored its dedication to honoring the memory and contributions of promising young leaders from the state.
