Today, we join millions across the United States in celebrating a remarkable milestone—250 years of American independence.
This anniversary is a celebration of the enduring values of freedom, resilience, innovation, and opportunity that have shaped generations and continue to inspire people around the world.
We are especially delighted to celebrate with the thousands of Akwa Ibom sons and daughters who have made the United States their home. Your hard work, excellence, and contributions continue to strengthen the bonds between our people while projecting the values and potential of Akwa Ibom on the global stage.
As we commemorate this historic occasion, may the friendship between our peoples continue to flourish, opening new opportunities for collaboration, investment, innovation, and cultural exchange.
Happy 250th Independence Anniversary to the United States of America.
Hon. Linda Akon Umoh
SSA to the Governor (Diaspora Matters) & Akwa Ibom State Diaspora Focal Point Officer
