Governor Umo Eno has appointed his daughter as First Lady of Akwa Ibom State following the demise of his wife, Pastor Patience Umo Eno.

Eno appointed his daughter, Mrs Helen Eno Obareki, in an acting position on Friday, 4th October, during a condolence visit by Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, and other dignitaries in Uyo.

According to Governor Eno, the decision comes as a way to continue his wife’s legacy, especially her pet project, the Golden Initiative For All (GIFA).

Reflecting on his deep bond with his late wife, Eno said, “I married her when she was 19, and I was 22. I called her Oluwa-Kemi because she was truly a gift from God.”

Adding, “Her passing is an irreplaceable loss for me. She was my embodiment of the biblical virtuous woman.”

On the transition of the First Lady’s duties, Governor Eno introduced Helen, saying, “It is not an easy task ahead, but I present our daughter, Helen, to continue the duties of the office.”

Addressing rumours of remarrying, Governor Eno joked, “I’m not considering remarrying anytime soon. I don’t have the money to pay another bride price.”

He stressed that his late wife’s legacy would continue through his daughter, who will coordinate the First Lady’s office and its programmes.

On her part, Senator Tinubu praised the governor’s decision, stating, “This is a thoughtful way to sustain Patience’s legacy, much like practices in the United States.”

She also offered words of encouragement to Obareki, saying, “Your mom didn’t bring you to me for nothing. I believe God will guide you.”
