The Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Umo Eno, has said that frequent and unscheduled visits from politicians distract him from the job for which he was elected.
He urged the politicians to cut back on frequent visits to the Government House so that he could concentrate.
Eno said this at a gathering, as captured in a video shared on Facebook.
“I will not go to anybody’s office without an appointment.
“I find it amusing that people would just leave their home and just show up, and they will call you that they have not been allowed to pass through the Government House gate.
“I will only receive visitors on Thursdays and Fridays. I beg us, between Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, I will not receive visitors to allow me time to do the job that you have elected me to do because no one would ask how many visitors I received at the end of four years.
“Allow us to hold the meeting we can hold, treat some files – you know we are almost treating files late, and I have tried to manage it for some time, but people would get angry,” the governor said.
