Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno PhD, has encouraged the youths of the State, to strive for excellence, competence and capability, saying that these attributes will encourage him to identify with and work with such people.

He stressed that jobs are available in the State for people who are documented on the official portals of the State, but would however, be given on competence not connection or favoritism.

The Governor made this known Wednesday, during the commissioning of the Model Primary School, in Uko-Oyukim, Oron local government area.

Speaking on the Procurement Construction Portal, he said: "We are opening up Procurement Construction Portal, so we can encourage our young people who have requisite qualifications and antecedents, they can help us open the frontiers of construction in Akwa Ibom.

"We hope everyone will go to the portal. If you are not on that portal, even if you're my mother that has gone to be with the Lord, I can't help you. That is the portal we use so that statistics can be very clear.

"We are using simple questions in line with the procurement law of Akwa Ibom State, we are not about doing trial and error because we are in a hurry. I am not dealing with you on the basis of where you come from. I am dealing with you on the basis of your deliverable.

"So please, for our young people, we are not shipping out jobs, the few we will give to outsiders who have capacity, but 90% of the job is for us here" he stated.

While lauding Mr Ukeme Peter, a young man whose company handled the building of the school project, Governor Eno said the young contractor was an example he wished others could emulate.

Speaking also during the commissioning, the Deputy Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Senator Akon Eyakenyi lauded Governor Eno, describing him as a visionary leader who is passionate about education and has a clear foresight for the future.

She emphasized that Governor Eno truly understands the value of education, which is why he pursued his academic journey diligently, affirming that laying a solid educational foundation is the key to unlocking future academic achievements.

"Your Excellency, you are a man that sees into the future. You are a man that loves education and that is why you had to go through all the levels to have a PhD.

"And with that, sir, you know that the foundation starts from the primary school, that when the foundation is properly laid, the other levels will excel.

According to the Commissioner for Education, Prof. Ubong Umoh, "The Model Primary School, Uko-Oyukim is an edifice that is a world-class example of what primary educational cradle should look like".

Mr. Umoh mentioned that the building comprises 19 well-polished classroom blocks to take care of 495 students, an ICT lab, a fully furnished library, head teacher's office and waiting area, an auditorium, an ultra-modern football field, among others.

Delivering his welcome remarks, the Chairman of Oron LGA Mr Okon Enweme appreciated Governor Umo Eno for transforming Uko-Oyukim primary school, adding that the school has given a facelift to the whole community.

"We thank you for changing this place. This is old Uko-Oyukim, those that have been out of this place for 3 years, if they enter this place, they will know that this is no longer the old Uko-Oyukim. Your Excellency, I thank you for doing this for the Oron people. God bless you" he said.

Highpoint of the event was the presentation of a local ballad and a message of appreciation by some pupils of the school.

I'd like to take that ferry to Calabar that day, and also come back.”

“We will not have the financial muscle to construct railways without the support of the federal government, but we will construct our waterways, put ferries on the waterways, and that will be our pride and our joy.

“With your support, we will do more, because we are determined to take development to every nook and crannies of our state. And we are determined to ensure that we end the rural - urban migration.

“That's why we're developing all of these rural communities. So please, I'd like to appeal to the youths, to please continue to cooperate with the contractor, so we can finish this project on time.”

“While we know that the federal government will come to our aid, and continue to support us in railways, in highways, and will also support us in our quest for the Ibom Deep seaport, and support us to also get money to work on our ecological site.”

The deputy Governor, Senator Akon Eyakenyi who lauded the Governor for his love to her people recounted that in the past, Oron was known for being an economic nerve center in the country.

Mrs Eyakenyi maintained that the marine project will catapult the area back to its past glory.

The project contractor and Managing Director of JMK Construction Company Limited, Mr Faysal Harb thanked the Governor for the confidence in his ability and promised to complete the project in the next six months.

The Commissioner for Works, Prof. Eno Ibanga, gave an overview of the project to have steel shore protections, four jetties, a terminal, cool room, and warehouse, a 5,500-square-meter car park that will accommodate at least 200 cars with internal road networks and a recreational center that will attract tourists, with 100% security guaranteed.

Prof. Ibanga thanked the Governor for initiating the project, assuring that he is working closely with the Delivery Advisor Mr. Orman Esin to ensure its timely completion.

Former Commissioner of Transport, Orman Esin, who is the delivery advisor for the project, and the clan head of Idua, Chief Asuquo, appreciated the Governor at the event while Rear Admiral Ebe who commended the Governor for deliberately setting out to develop the entire State, promised to deliver the passenger ferry as required.

ROAD 1 EXTENSION, NEW YENAGOA CITY GRA

Clearing is already on kilometre 2.

Recall that Governor Douye Diri gave the directive for the extension of Road 1 at the New Yenagoa City GRA to link LNG junction at Gbarantoru during the commissioning of Road 1 last Wednesday.

As we speak, work has commenced and about 2 kilometres of clearing has been achieved.

When this road is completed, commuters and road users from the Amassoma, airport and Gbarain-Ekpetiama axes would not need to go through Etegwe roundabout to access Yenagoa, the state capital. This road will provide easier access through the New Yenagoa City GRA at Onopa.

Kudos to the Diri-led Assured Prosperity Government!
