FRESHFISH’S DESPERATE DASH: ENO’S ALEPH DEAL EXPOSED AS A MASTERSTROKE
ObongUnwana Micheal Joseph Okon – Ituk Mbang, Uruan.
The recent criticism from the usual partisan critic, Tom Freshfish, over Governor Umo Eno’s partnership with Aleph Technical and Advisory Services is a predictable yet desperate attempt to undermine the progress we’ve made as a state under the watchful eyes and able hands of the golden governor.
However, it’s worth assuring the people of Akwa Ibom State that this move is a game-changer, a strategic masterstroke that will catapult our tourism sector into this breathtaking century. We’re not just talking about managing hotels; we’re talking about unlocking the immense potential of Akwa Ibom’s hospitality industry.
With Aleph’s expertise, these facilities will be transformed into world-class destinations, attracting investors, creating jobs, and generating revenue that will benefit our people. Let’s not forget that His Excellency Pastor Umo Eno PhD has vast personal experience in the hospitality business; this, for Akwa Ibom State government under his watch, seeking partnership with Aleph Technical and Advisory Services should be applauded as a plus to what we already know and have experienced over the years.
Our indigene working in these facilities should be excited, not worried. This partnership is a golden opportunity for them to upgrade their skills, learn from the best, and take their careers to new heights. His Excellency Pastor Umo Eno PhD won’t let anyone be victimized or sidelined; he is committed to protecting and promoting our people.
The opposition’s claim of policy inconsistency and double speak by the governor is a weak attempt to score cheap political points. Circumstances change, and so do strategies. What remains unwavering is our leader’s commitment to the people of Akwa Ibom State and his determination to deliver results. Having an advisory services does not in anyway undermine local branding as envisioned by the golden governor.
He has a clear vision for our tourism sector and is working tirelessly to make it a reality. The ARISE Agenda is at the heart of this partnership, a promise to unlock the full potential of our state and create a brighter future for all.
Aleph Technical and Advisory Services is a renowned firm with a proven track record. They’re not just experts; they’re innovators who bring fresh ideas, new perspectives, and global best practices to our hospitality sector. Let’s be assured of His Excellency’s confidence that they’ll deliver exceptional results.
The people of Akwa Ibom State deserve quality services and world-class facilities. This partnership will ensure that we deliver just that. We’re talking about 5-star hotels, top-notch restaurants, and unforgettable tourist experiences that will put our state on the map.
The governor is not handing over our assets to anyone; we’re partnering with experts to manage them for the benefit of our people. This is a strategic partnership that will yield dividends, and we’re proud to be taking this bold step towards economic prosperity.
Let’s focus on building a brighter future for Akwa Ibom State. We are committed to transparency, accountability, and delivering results. We’ll continue to keep the people informed about our progress, and we invite everyone to join us on this exciting journey towards a more prosperous Akwa Ibom State.

Aleph Technical and Advisory Services, as the name implies, will only aid Akwa Ibom State with technical and advisory expertise to help us achieve better results from our state-owned hospitality investments while local brand prevails.
