In a significant gesture of support for education in Akwa Ibom State, indigenes residing in the USA, under the Akwa Ibom State Indigenes Association of North America (AKISAN), donated exercise books to primary school pupils on September 29, 2024. This initiative aligns with Governor Umo Eno's Arise Agenda, which emphasizes education alongside other key areas such as agriculture, rural development, infrastructure, security management, and economic development [7f1f0484].

The donation took place at Christ the King Primary School in Uyo, coinciding with the state's 37th anniversary. AKISAN president Mbong Ekiko highlighted the association's commitment to supporting the governor's educational initiatives, which aim to enhance learning opportunities for children in the state. The head teacher, Ukeme Udofia, acknowledged the importance of such donations, especially for pupils whose parents struggle to provide essential educational materials [7f1f0484].

This is not the first time AKISAN has contributed to educational development in Akwa Ibom. The organization has previously sponsored STEM initiatives and scholarship schemes, demonstrating a sustained commitment to improving educational outcomes for the youth in the region [7f1f0484].
