Akwa-Ibom Launches Coconut Plantation, Refinery Projects. by Opharhe: 7:13am On May 26, 2016 |
As part of activities commemorating his one year in office, Akwa Ibom State Governor, Udom Emmanuel, has performed the ground breaking ceremony for 11, 000 hectares of coconut plantation and a refinery project to boost the industrialisation agenda of his administration. The project, St. Gabriel Coconut Plantation and Refinery Limited, which is sited on the disputed land between Ikot Abasi, Mkpat Enin and Eastern Obolo communities, is expected to provide employment for more than 500 youths, who would also undergo training in various aspects of the project. Performing the ground breaking ceremony, Governor Emmanuel said the refinery will process coconut from the plantation, which is one of the longest surviving plant with more than 365 usages and a value chain that triples other economic generating ventures. He added that the choice of the disputed land was a divine direction to cultivate and convert what would have been described as a waste land to a source of wealth, considering the ever-increasing demand and value of coconut in the international market. The governor acknowledged that his choice of the disputed land has made it possible for the warring communities to agree to harness their resources for a mega buck project that would benefit the people of the communities rather than fighting and killing themselves over it. newtelegraphonline.com/udom-uplifts-aibom-coconut-plantation-refinery-projects/
