Akwa Ibom State Governor, Mr. Udom Emmanuel, has inaugurated a 10-member Technical Committee with about 42 months to actualise the widely publicised Ibom Deep Seaport.
Inaugurating the committee, the Governor tasked members to pilot the process for the actualisation of the seaport on or before December 31, 2018; adding that the committee should also draw up a road map in collaboration with other stakeholders for the next project phase.
He said the committee should review the Outline Business Case (OBC) and other relevant documents to guide in the timely delivery of the project. Equally too, the committee was asked to ensure compliance with the ICRC Act, 2005 and the National Policy on Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in the overall project implementation.
According to the governor, “Ibaka Deep Seaport is an audacious attempt to re-write the maritime story of Akwa Ibom State. The seaport holds the promise of an industrial revolution of our State.
He posited that the success or failure of this enterprise will not depend on the heads of those appointed, but on their hearts. “If they come to work with the right attitude, the right mind-set and the right passion, they will succeed. When they succeed, we succeed as a people”, he added.
The Governor pointed out that the Chairman of the Technical Committee for the Realisation of Ibom Deep Seaport, has the expertise, skills and experience needed for this task just as the other members have reached the zenith of their professions, and have competences needed for the task ahead.
The committee has Mrs. Mfon Usoro, a former Director General of Nigeria Maritime Administration and Safety Agency as Chairman, while Dr. Emmanuel Ekuwem, Mr. Chidi Izuwah, Mr. Idongesit Udofa, Engr. Ekong Umo-Otong, Rear Admiral Francis Akpan, Barr. Aniekan Ukpanah, Mr. Charles Udonwah, Mrs. Akon Eyakenyi, and Engr. Etido Inyang are members.
The committee is to liaise with the Federal Ministry of Transport, Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA), and Ministerial Project Development Steering Committee (MPDSC) in all procurement processes in line with the Public Procurement Act 2007; evaluate Technical reports from the Transaction Adviser (TA) & Operator and ensure implementation.

Welcome development.
Atleast the population of lagos state will reduce

A verbal development.

After its actualization I'd count it as a welcome development.

The Bad Things Likely To Start Happening To Nigerian Entertainers

Did I hear some body say that igbos will soon start divestment from lagos and strategic positioning for Ibaka.

The long awaited time is finally coming.

Ibaka to the east is less than 40 km
Lagos to the east is more than 800 km
Igbo imports and exports business model is about to change for ever

Good move!
Seems this man will be a proactive and action governor like akpabio. Nice!

This is true. Can't wait for this blueprint to come to fruition.

Great move by Akwa Ibom. The government is doing everything to attract investors to the state. Akwa Ibom, the fastest developing state in Nigeria.

This is why I love my maternal home!

This port will empower the entire East.
