Senate President Godswill Akpabio says politicians should hinge their political aspirations on vision.
His media office quoted him as saying this while speaking at a funeral service held in the honour of Aniema Donald Etiebet, daughter of the late Donald Etiebet, a former senator.
The funeral was held in Abak LGA of Akwa Ibom.
While eulogizing her, Akpabio described Aniema as his “strong” supporter, who ensured that he was elected senator.
“She was a very strong supporter of mine, who had the sight and the vision of what was about to happen in the senatorial district,” he said.
“She did all she could to ensure that I emerged the senator representing the good people of Akwa Ibom north-west senatorial district, which finally led to my being elected by my colleagues as the president of the 10th senate.
“Aniema was a chip off the old block. When some people who were misled, gathered at Ritman University against me, Aniema stood her ground against them.
“She invited me to her father’s house, prayed for and campaigned for me. God answered her prayers because she had the vision of a better thing for Akwa Ibom north-west senatorial district”.
