“A Letter of Appreciation to Distinguished Senator Jarigbe Agom
Distinguished Senator,
“I write with a heart full of gratitude to sincerely appreciate your kind gesture in blessing me with a bursary of one hundred thousand naira (₦100,000). As an indigent student struggling to survive in school while pursuing a course in Electrical Electronics, this support means so much to me. Truly, I do not have any politician to speak for me, but God used you to speak into my life at a most critical moment.
“Your benevolence has lifted a heavy burden off my shoulders and given me fresh strength to continue in my academic journey with hope. Beyond this, I deeply appreciate your outstanding service to our community, especially the Ukpagada bridge, which stands as a visible testimony of your love for the people.
“Distinguished Senator, my prayer is that the Almighty God will continue to bless you with good health, divine protection, uncommon wisdom, and overwhelming victory as you continue to serve. May your vision for our people never be hindered, and may God crown your efforts with resounding success, even as you look forward to 2027.
“Thank you, Distinguished Senator. You have touched my life, and I will never forget it.
“Yours sincerely,
Uko, Francis Ayim”.

Sir,
“APPRECIATION FOR THE JARIBURS STUDENTS GRANT INITIATIVE
“I write with deep gratitude on behalf of myself and other students to sincerely appreciate your kind gesture in remembering the students of Northern Cross River and providing this timely support through the “Jariburs students initiative Grant”.
“This initiative is a testament to your commitment to education, youth empowerment, and the future of our senatorial district. It has lightened many burdens and restored confidence in the fact that true leadership seeks the welfare of all, irrespective of political affiliations.
“I also wish to specially acknowledge Mr. Agba Jalingo and his team for their efforts in coordinating this programme and contributing immensely to its success. His dedication ensured a smooth and transparent process that allowed students from all backgrounds to benefit.
“It is worthy of note that this initiative was not politicised. Unlike in the past, when such opportunities were hijacked and reserved for only party loyalists, this grant cut across all lines, reaching even youths and supporters of other political parties. This act of fairness reflects the kind of society we all aspire to build: one where inclusiveness, justice, and progress prevail.
“As you have chosen to set the standard, May the Almighty God continue to grant you wisdom, strength, and foresight to sustain such impactful initiatives and to explore even more avenues of giving back to the society.
“With great respect,
“Yours sincerely,
Ikpa Thomas Onah Jnr.
