UDEME UFOT RALLIES THE TROOPS
I have recently written about this Lord. I had captioned it ‘Udeme is a great man’. But let me crave your indulgence and write again. I promise after this one, I will not write again until he either wins whatever is the global awards in his industry or he gives me his goat meat again. I have heard that Udeme’s goat meat is world acclaimed and that it is one of the very few things that a lot of big Akwa Ibom people fly all the way to come and munch on.
Mr. Ufot has been a God sent as I struggle to deliver on my vision of retelling the Ikot Abasi Women’s Uprising that happened in 1929. The story is so rich, that listening to Senator Udoma Udo Udoma, whose grandmother was the central figure and the inspiration of the William Benson written epic, tears almost came out of my eyes. The part when the senator said his 12year old father was called from school to come and identify his mother’s body touched me. I imagined the boy falling over the body of his mother who had just given him pap that morning. I bowed my head. By the way, that boy grew up to be one of the most distinguished legal luminaries of this century rising to the bench of the Supreme Court and emerging as the Attorney-General of Uganda amongst others.
Anyways, that is how Udeme Ufot has opened up his wide and very rich network to me o. Come and see great Akwa Ibom men like the aforementioned Aniekan Ukpanah, Larry Ettah former Head Honcho at UAC, Richard Esin, Aniekan Etiebet, Gabriel Ukpe, Captain Udom of Ibom Air and many moreGod walks through messengers. Udeme is a real messenger of God on this matter. This story will redefine my people, it will engage 500 youths and over one million people will see it globally.
Please anybody that has Udeme’s phone number help me call him and just say ‘thank you.’
