Message From The President   On behalf of the Atlanta Chapter of the Akwa Ibom State Association of Nigeria (USA), Inc., I welcome you to our portal. This portal will inform you of all you need to know about our organization. I was elected unanimously in March 2009. I have come into power with the following promises and I intend to keep every one of them:   To source for more funds to realize the Akwa Ibom House Project To increase membership in the Atlanta chapter To spread the news of our organization to a global audience, via the internet To implement an alternative means of dues payments through the internet On my Inaugural Day (April 18th, 2009) in the Akwa Ibom House, Atlanta, I Obong, Dr. McDonald Effiong Ammazi-Akpan, salute my PEOPLE - Akwa Ibom indigenes here and abroad. Nditọ Akwa Ibom, mbọk idian ubọk ibọb abio nnyin. Let us grow up, put our differences aside, and realize that we travelled this far to improve ourselves so that we could differentiate ourselves from ordinary individuals, and therefore must be emulated, positively. I have all the qualifications: Professional, Personal, Academic and Traditional, for my position as President. I ask that all Akwa Ibomites, both near and far, join hands to help me succeed. Please feel free to peruse our site and to tell a friend/family member about us. Though this site is primarily aimed at Akwa Ibom Indigenes in the Atlanta area, I look forward to this site being the watering hole for all Akwa Ibomites worldwide. To achieve this purpose, we will add various features over time that will encourage social networking as well as online and offline collaboration (Picture of the week, photo galleries, members section, etc). If you have any questions, do not hesitate to drop us a note. We will definitely get back to you. Sincerely, Obong, Professor McDonald "Big Mac" Effiong Ammazi-Akpan, ph.D. 1-404-281-0406 President, Akwa Ibom State Association of Nigeria (USA), Inc. (Atlanta Chapter)
