Luke Onofiok, an associate of the October 2009 Class and immediate past Speaker of Nigeria Youth Parliament, won the State House of Assembly election for the Nsit Ubim constituency of Akwa Ibom State.
During his campaign, Barrister Onofiok Luke identified education as his specific interest if given the mandate to represent his people, he promised to seek for ways to give free education programme legislative backing to help in the sustenance of the programme.
Barrister Onofiok Luke who dropped the hint in his home town, Ikot Etobo, Nsit Ubium during the presidential elections, told the newsmen that the bill will help successive administrations from 2015 to continue in funding the free education project, describing it as a worth-while programme that will shape the future of Akwa Ibom children, thereby making them to compete favourably with their contemporaries across the universe.
He also promised to embark on a programme that will promote sporting activities in schools; encourage debate, quiz competitions and also revive the virtually crumbling reading culture among pupils.
