The senator-elect for Akwa Ibom South Senatorial district, Dr. Ekong Sampson, has said that the idea behind ‘Happy Hour’ as propounded by the state governor-elect, Pst Umo Eno, was not in any way an encouragement for laziness and indolence, but for those who work hard and need a rest.
Recalled that the ‘Happy Hour’ proposition by the Akwa Ibom Eno, during his recent media interaction in the state, had been widely misrepresented and misinterpreted in the social media space, with many linking the concept as an open declaration for alcoholism and revelry.
Speaking on Tuesday while cutting the tape to commission and open the doors to Posh Events and Party, a multifaceted event planning outfit located in Uruan Street, Uyo, the senator-elect said the concept of the ‘Happy Hour’ was actually a call for people to arise and get something doing after which they can spare some time to unwind, as is observed in most developed societies.
He said “Happy hour simply means imbibing the philosophy of hard work and then, a deserving rest. It’s truly for those who work hard”.
Dr Sampson lauded the progenitors of the outfit, Mr and Mrs Ndiana Thompson, for imbibing the true Dakkada spirit preached by the state Governor Udom Emmanuel and Eno in setting up the facility, adding that the venture would continue to grow in leaps and bounds into other subsidiaries.
Responding, the host, Ndiana Thompson lauded Dr Sampson for always identifying with the progress and development of his people. He expressed appreciation to the Senator-elect for sparing time to grace the launch, despite his busy schedule.
