The former State Chairman of Young Progressives Party (YPP), Apostle Nyeneime Andy has mobilized one million voters in support of President Bola Tinubu, Senator Godswill Akpabio and Governor Umo Eno's second term election in 2027.
The mobilization rally took place on Thursday, May 14, 2026, at Villa Hilton Hotel in Uyo.
Andy who is the lead Pastor at Holy Ghost Ambassadors Church in Uyo and Abuja said the movement was endorsing the three candidates on grounds of their result-driven leadership.
"The purpose of the 1 million voters movement is a simple yet powerful tool to mobilize responsible citizens, conscious voters and progressive minds towards leadership that guarantees peace", he said.
"This is why we stand in public to endorse the Governor of Akwa Ibom State, a friend, a colleague, a Pastor; and we endorse the President of the Senate of the Federal Republic and we also endorse President Tinubu. If you don't like it what can you do about it?", he queried.
"We do this because leadership must be supported. Lions do not fight like Lions because they understand territory and preservation", he submitted.
While responding to criticisms about his involvement in politics as a clergyman, Apostle Andy responded thus:
"My answer is simple; it's because the church is in the society and we're members of the society. We are not called only to pray for the society, we are also called to influence the society so today, we must speak", he said.
The National Coordinator of the One Million Voters Movement therefore called on his people to get their Permanent Voters' Card (PVCs) ready in preparedness for the election.
Earlier in their separate remarks, the former Vice Chairman of Uyo Local Government Area, Pst. Sylvia Ekong and State Secretary of the Movement, Pst. John Udoh expressed confidence that the course they were embarking on was a worthy one which would lead them, the State and country at large to a positive end.
The rally featured an endorsement of the three candidates by the Ikot Ekpene, Eket and Uyo Senatorial district men and women leaders of the Movement, as well as a motion of continuity in office.
It was attended by One Million Voters across Akwa Ibom State who were represented by their Chapter leaders and representatives.
