Ini Archibong, Strategy Director of Chastest Consult and a prominent figure in African media management and public affairs, has formally declared his support for the Arise with Renewed Hope Initiative. The initiative, championed by His Excellency, Pastor Umo Eno, Governor of Akwa Ibom State, and co-adopted by Senate President, Dr. Godswill Akpabio, represents a unified vision for the state’s future.
Speaking at a media parley in Abuja, Archibong, a native of Itiam-Etoi in Uyo, outlined a strategic roadmap to accelerate the state’s development through high-level investment attraction and project management excellence.
“His Excellency’s vision for Akwa Ibom is truly inspiring,” Archibong stated. “I am pledging my full strategic support to the Arise with Renewed Hope mantra. My goal is to help translate this vision into measurable economic progress and sustainable opportunities for our people.”
With nearly 20 years of experience advising governments and private sector leaders across Africa, the UK, and North America, Archibong intends to leverage his global network to position Akwa Ibom as Nigeria’s premier hub for innovation.
Archibong also took the opportunity to commend the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Prince Enobong Uwah, for his leadership and successful organization of the state congress. He described Uwah as “a gentleman of international repute” and the ideal partner to support the Governor’s administrative goals.
As Governor Eno continues to deliver on infrastructure, social welfare, and education, the addition of Archibong’s strategic acumen is expected to further deepen investor confidence and accelerate the state’s industrialization agenda.
