COMRADE ANTHONY ABAKPA EXPRESSES PROFOUND GRATITUDE TO NUBIFIE, UNIONISTS, FAMILY, FRIENDS AND THE OTUKPA COMMUNITY
I, Comrade Anthony Abakpa, mni, NUBIFIE President, wish to express my profound gratitude and heartfelt appreciation to everyone who came out in great numbers to celebrate, honour, and share in the joy of this memorable occasion.
The warmth, love, excitement, and overwhelming show of solidarity demonstrated by everyone who attended will remain deeply appreciated. Your presence was not merely an act of attendance; it was a powerful demonstration of friendship, unity, brotherhood, and collective support.
I extend my special appreciation to the entire NUBIFIE family, NAC, NEC, and all NUBIFIE members for standing firmly together and making the occasion remarkable. To our dedicated unionists, colleagues, friends, family members, well-wishers, and supporters, I say a very big THANK YOU for your encouragement, prayers, goodwill, and unwavering support.
Your presence added colour, joy, and meaning to the celebration. Every handshake, warm greeting, word of encouragement, photograph, message, call, and gesture of support was deeply valued. You made the occasion one to remember.
I also wish to express my sincere appreciation to the Otukpa Traditional Council and the good people of Otukpa for the honour and recognition bestowed upon me. Receiving such recognition from one's community is both humbling and deeply encouraging. I am grateful for the confidence, respect, and goodwill demonstrated through this special honour.
To those who travelled from different places to be part of the programme, your sacrifice and commitment did not go unnoticed. To those who worked behind the scenes, offered assistance, provided encouragement, and contributed in various ways to the success of the occasion, I appreciate you immensely.
Above all, this celebration has once again reminded me of the strength that comes from unity, friendship, service, and solidarity. The joy witnessed was made possible because people came together with one heart and one purpose.
I am sincerely grateful to every one of you. Thank you for celebrating with me, thank you for standing with me, and thank you for making the occasion truly memorable.
May the bond of unity and solidarity among us continue to grow stronger, and may we continue to celebrate one another, support one another, and build together.
SOLIDARITY FOREVER! ✊🏾
Comrade Anthony Abakpa
NUBIFIE President
