As an initiator of “heal the world” movement, he called on public office holders in the southern region of Nigeria to shun backstabbing, defamation of human character, and learn not to separate politics from their religion, stressing that religion is supposed to serve as a guide to their conscience.
The business mogul explained that heal the world initiative is a vision given to him by God to continually champion humanitarian causes, promote selfless services and generosity that will pave the way for a brighter and more compassionate world.
Inoder to give a young and a vibrant muckraker, an excellent platform to harness his media opportunity with a touch of professional coverage, Dr. Ntatam approved funding for the registration of Abasianyanga Akpan, an indigene of Ikono Local Government Area into the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ), a gesture aimed to support Akpan’s professional journalistic endeavors and empower him to amplify the voices of his community.
