Obasanjo Arrives Uyo On Monday To Inaugurate 29km Etinan Road & Cable Bridges by Hunchogee: 8:20pm On Sep 25, 2022
OBASANJO ARRIVES UYO ON MONDAY TO INAUGURATE 29KM ETINAN-NDON EYO ROAD & TWO CABLE BRIDGES

All is now set for the official unveiling of the dualized 29km Etinan-Ndon Eyo road with two cable bridges and spur from Mbioto-Ekpene Nten in Etinan to Ikot Akpan in Onna local government area of Akwa Ibom State on Monday, 26th September 2022.

Also slated for commissioning same day is the 2.59km Atiamkpat-Ikot Ese Ishiet road with spur in Onna

The Etinan - Ndon Eyo Road, first of its kind in Akwa Ibom State with two cable bridges, will be commissioned by Nigeria's former President, Olusegun Obasanjo.

Some correspondents of national newspapers were led to the project site, by Governor Emmanuel’s media aides who took time to explain that the Governor was keeping to his promise of constructing viable economic roads from the hinterland to the urban centers.

The Etinan-Ndon-Eyo road handled by a Chinese construction firm, Wizchino Engineering, connects several communities in Etinan and Onna with the East-West road and grants access to the industrial belt of the State.

The dual carriage - 6 lanes Road also comes with walkways, street lighting, cable bridges, has three beautiful roundabouts, with two adorned with the Dakkada icon.

Residents and motorists on the road poured encomium on the Governor for the road and promised to remain supportive of his administration.

Ekpene Ukpa bridge was a nightmare, giving road users a horendious experience.

Several lives were lost on the old Ekpene Ukpa bridge, before Governor Emmanuel for coming to the rescue.

In July last year, Chief Obasanjo had visited Akwa Ibom to commission the 1km flyover constructed by Governor Emmanuel at Ikot Oku Ikono in Uyo.

The commissioning ceremony of the new road is slated for 10am.

Beautiful. This is what Tinubu wants to the destroy in the Niger Delta. After taking all the oil company offices to Lagos after taking the Dangkte refinery that was supposed to be built in the zniger Delta to Lagos , after frustrating the reactivation of ports in the Southsouth because of their new Lekki port he now wants to finish us finally...

Never ever will Tinubu rule this country...

I once had a chat with one Akwa Ibom guy and I was shocked that he kept saying that Udom Emmanuel is doing nothing in his state.

He called Udom a social media governor.

Indeed, human beings are hard to please

With it comes to getting leaderhsip right, Akwa Ibom is only in competition with itself.

I keep wondering what those cables are doing on that bridge

Looking at the pillar that the cables are 'tied' to, it's obvious it is there just for the name 'cable bridge' and not because the cables are supporting the bridge. grin grin

Nice road. Well done Udom. The fact that this was an existing road yet you still decided to widen it and construct a 'cable bridge' is a good gift to the people of Etinan

Note: Before you argue check the base of the bridge and you'll see the real support pillars for the bridge.

Hunchogee:

It’s not a cable suspended bridge but a cable bridge

In 'cable suspension bridges', the cables ride freely across the towers, transmitting the load to the anchorages at either end. In cable-(stayed) bridges, the cables are attached to the towers, which alone bear the load(which is the case here).
The question is this: is the load of that bridge carried/borne by the tower(the pillar we are seeing on top of the bridge)?

It's just a bridge with an uncompleted concrete pillar in the middle having cables attached to it. Don't get me wrong, the road and bridge look beautiful safe for the pillar & cables grin

Oga, slow down with the lies. Akpabio left a very big shoes for Udom.

Should I start with all the parks Akpabio built? Apart from road, what else has your Udom done satisfactorily?

With Attah, we got outstanding projects like:
Plaza
AKSU
Airport


With Akpabio we got:
Stadium
Le Meriden
E-Library
Parks at Brook Street and Udo Udoma
And lots more

Apart from road, mention any tangible infrastructure Udom has built... Please don't mention Dakada towers because it's useless currently.

Let’s not talk about roads. Let's just have it that that's basic amenities.

Apart from Dakada Tower which lies useless, there's no other projects he has completed. Ibom Air is not owned by AKS, its a PPP project.

China Market only exists on Facebook grin
All those mushroom factories were PPP projects.

Udom only knows how to re re-roof existing projects and calls that renovation.

See the quality of structures put forward by Akpabio, compare it to the ugly 80s bungalow Udom is littering the state with.

What happened to the China Market, Ibom Science Park, Ibom Seaport amongst others? He hasn't added new infrastructure apart from refurbishing old ones and building roads. We thank God he's even building the roads sef... We'll breath fresh air next year.

That person could either be an opposition politician who is good at playing dirty politics and politics of lies and deceit or that person may be talking out of ignorance or hate for the Governor.
