Thank You Gov Udom Emmanuel For Setting Up ICAN Uyo Study Centre – AG

The Permanent Secretary and Accountant General of Akwa Ibom State, Pastor Uwem Andrew-Essien has lauded the foresight and vision of Governor Udom Emmanuel at setting up the ICAN Uyo study centre.

Pastor Andrew-Essien stated that the study centre established five years ago has produced 240 chartered accountants, making Akwa Ibom State one of the top producers of chartered accountants in Nigeria.

The Permanent Secretary made the commendation when he received the newly qualified charted accountants from the ICAN, Uyo Study Centre, who paid him a courtesy visit in his office.

The Accountant General, a chartered accountant himself, said he was impressed with the number of chartered accountants the Uyo study centre has produced since its inception and encouraged accountants yet to be certified to take advantage of the study centre to upgrade themselves.

He congratulated the 43 newly qualified chartered accountants on their courage and perseverance, which according to him, has earned them the name “chartered accountants”.

Speaking on behalf of the newly qualified chartered accountants, Mrs. Blessing Ikpong praised the State Governor, Mr. Udom Emmanuel for approving and supporting the establishment and funding the centre.

Mrs. Ikpong equally lauded the fatherly role of Pastor Andrew-Essien, noting his wise counsel and support has seen them through their academic pursuit, adding that they would be inducted in May, 2023.
