nice. thanks for the clarification. so they have made some modifications that should account for the difference in capacity.
How about the hotel project?

This guy, like Donald Duke is really laying the foundation for future leaders to continue from. Meanwhile the 80 year old Elechi is sleeping in Ebonyi, Theo Orji is using paid PR people to come to nairaland to claim they are building this legacy sh.it and artisans nonsense, Okorocha is being Okorocha, Uduaghan is dancing to 2face songs, Amaechi is giving conditions to quit as NGF Oga at the top because being governor of Rivers does not matter, and Dickson is saying he's not competent to govern Bayelsa.

Now this is true development.

Akpabio would make a fine leader for Nigeria.
Re: Uyo - City Of Peace And Beauty (Pictures) by ujoinme: 5:46pm On Aug 17, 2013
Laying the foundation for the industrialization of akwa ibom is the establishment of A gas processing plant at Uquo in Esit Eket that capable of processing 200mcf of gas. this affords industries that want to open up in akwa ibom access to gas which is essential in turning turbines that powers manufacturing.

Currently the plant is supplying gas to the state owned 191MW state owned Ibom power plant and is also poised to supply gas to the neighbouring calabar 500mw NIPP at odukpani cross river.

Septa energy gas plant

Re: Uyo - City Of Peace And Beauty (Pictures) by ujoinme: 5:58pm On Aug 17, 2013
mobil exxon is also constructing a 500MW power plant at QIT ibeno which is close to the ACCUGAS/Septa energy gas processing plant. the combined effect will make this area of the state very attractive for investors because of ready availability of power.

Hi. Does anyone know or cud throw more lights on real reasons why AKS govt left Hyaat group to sign a deal wit Hilton group over d tropicana hotel? And why Akpabio has decided not to open both the IBIBIO UNION MUSEUM at udo udoma avenue and IBOM PLAZA wit its open-air cinema &shopping mall 2d public? Those two edifies despite d tens of billions of naira used in constructing them have been abandoned to reptiles . This is sad.

Very good question. What about the 4 motor parks at itam, mbiabong, aka road and abak road. The govt is dealing with the issue of illegal motor parks with kid gloves. The abbatoir and timber markets at itam are also left to rot! The govt has to wake up and make sure older infrastructure not built by them do not rot. Some hospitals in the state fall in this category too. When i pass through this places i feel like weeping. Govt is a continuum. If not whatever they are building today will suffer the same fate. A word is enough for the wise.

The roads are nice. But why are people posting hotels which are personal property as government achievement. Or is government now building hotels?

It's achievement, whether by govt or the people. We are all one... everybody contributes. That's how you develop. Not leaving everything to govt. The govt played their role by providing the infrastructure. The private sector then takes over by erecting structures like hotels, banks etc. So it's all about synergy. cool

sorry am not a lands salesman. am sure the state website should have information on land acquisition.

Also not the states spokesman. the state has an able commissioner of information. am but just an interested Nigerian in good governance and provision of dividends of democracy to its citizens.
And i happen to see in Akwa ibom an Able and focused government that is doing just that, hence my interest in the state.

djustice: I'm waiting for the Asiwaju Criminal Notebooks to come and piss all over this thread. I am an indigene of Lagos State, and when I visited Uyo in 2010, I was stunned by the rate of development. I've hated Fashola, Tinubu and the whole ACN nonsense since then.

Consider that the total revenue for this state has never been up to half of total revenue in Lagos. Also consider that they have about twice the land mass of Lagos State to develop, and yet they have more roads per square km, a fully functional airport, complete with hangar.

In Lagos, we're still talking about how we will "soon" start building an airport, 13 years after the idea was first broached by Tinubu.

I also noticed that there is no single toll road in Uyo. Not one! And all the roads are better than our single toll road in Lagos.

Thank you for saying the truth my dear. Me too was tripped off my feet the twice i visited Uyo. The governor is building an international city that only Abuja can compare with.

I was humiliated seeing Juilius berger tarring village roads in the hinterlands...

Give me the kind of backwardness in Uyo anytime and i will take it, A backward people building standard infrastructure in their state with solid companies like JB,CCECC,Gitto,Setraco to mention a few.
Am sure all the indigene of your home state are praying for the kind of backwardness that uyo has!

You think this is the days of just repeating biased stereotypes? those days are over and Nigerians who have been to Uyo do not need to be told that Akwa ibom is the home of serious people and the future of Nigeria.

Keep on hating while we keep moving on.

So is the gov. Akpabio whom you refer to as the best gov. in nigeria not from akwa ibom? If yes then he is also local
following your reasoning therefore, a local man is the best governor in Nigeria according to you.
Don't you think nigeria need more local men like akpabio. just saying!

If i went to a place for a visit where the peoples locality offends my city senses i will never stay up to a month and counting.you should have cut your visit short an leave within hours.
Be honest is the reason for your continued stay not unconnected with the fact that you are enjoying your stay but too proud to admit it?
