Abohboy:

effty:
Just to keep the goal of Orin marginalization alive shey?

The Russian survey company said Ibeno will be more viable than Mbo...secondly the propose island was in Ibeno not mbo it was a mistake from the start

effty:
Akwa-Ibom is not a Christian state but a Criminal state. You are one of those feeding from the criminals, you and ilaumoh.

May God have mercy on you sir

More NGOs visit Ibeno Islands

Exclusive: What people don't know or see in the Map....

Akwa Ibom State houses 38 Islands that are very still untapped or developed making the future of tourism more brighter for the state than ever...
Do you know that Ibeno L.G.A has 25 communities and all 22 are Island settlements that is not even much captured in the map..

Others are Mbo L.G.A with 7 Island communities while Eastern Obolo L.G.A has 9 island communities ..
Thus making Akwa Abasi Ibom state the only state with 38 island settlements in Nigeria.

Akwa Ibom currently has the longest seaband or coastal line in west Africa making it a tourism heaven just like the river Nile in Egypt....with a whopping 2410 km2 coastal line, ibeno alone has 1200km2 while others is shared among Mbo, Easyern Obolo, Ikot Abasi etc

Let talk briefly about Ibeno L.G.A, Ibeno is bordering at the east flank by Mbo LGA, at the west flank by Eastern Obolo by north by Eket and by the south by the Atlantic Ocean.
Ibeno people are the extracted people from Andoni in River state & Eastern Obolo people inwhich they share the same culture and traditions with Andoni people of river state...
Bonny Island became popular becos of industrial present in that island ... leaving the 38 island settlement in Akwa Ibom state unknown and untapped ...

When I went on a tour to those islands in Ibeno..
Shockingly they were an island you travel for 1 full day from the jetty in Iwou-Achang in Ibeno to Utana obulop island.
This island took us 23hours with a speed flying boat engine fitted with two 75 horsepower engines to be able to get to that Island of Utana Obolop Island.

The interesting part was I saw huge population of people and majority were people from other countries like Satomi and Principe, Gabon , Togo and even people from Edo state and I was amazed about the untapped island .
Shocking they was no federal and state governments present in those islands ... No nigerians schools, hospital, police stations etc meaning the only thing that links that island to Akwa Ibom state and Nigeria is that the chiefs in this islands are from Ibeno period.
Is saddened how this guys are abandoned by both the state and federal government letting them to live and do thier business alone with steady international travels from one countries to the other without visa or etc.
Akwa Ibom state might not be big in size in the Nigeria map but the state is deep in realiality.

This island house up to 80 thousand inhabitants of various countries ... Jesus my lord I felt like crying while writing this piece. The primary occupation there is fishing and once in a while some foreign fishing companies and NGOs drop food & medical aids in the island in exchange of sea food....
If this Islands are well tapped it will make Akwa Ibom look like Miami of USA, or the Bahamas.

Please I used this opportunity to ask all well meaning Nigerians to go and invest and our journalist not to only covers cities and politics but go inside this islands and bring them to limelight.....
Am just so angry I won't be surprised we losing some of these islands in the future to foreign Governments like we did to bakassi..
Ibeno is gotten from the word Obolo which means white sand beach.
Akwa Ibom alone houses 80 thousand Ghanaian living in both Ibeno and Mbo L.G.A. in short there is a place in Iwouachang in Ibeno called Ghana town.

Nigerians need to know this.

Drop ake mfo ise?

Heathen777:
We could build a better tourist destination instead of a stupidly religious building. 'Even more so' we could invest in other sectors as tourism is the least of our problems.

I understand sir, but honestly if you've been following our thread you would have seen other aspect he has ventured in too

traihit:
This state really has a very good blueprint. I've never been to Akwa Ibom before but my friends from there and the pictures I see only tell me something huge is silently springing out of the South-South. These are states that should be boasting of more wealth than the other states in the country. I only pray the state keep getting visionary leaders to keep driving it until it becomes a new model state where everything is well planned and structured. This is why other states should start holding their governors and grassroots' leaders to ransom. Akwa Ibom is rising internally because it is internally motivated and not because Buhari or some central powers like it.

God bless you sir , what a nice piece you gat there .

Oga lalastclala rest it on the far top

Heathen777:
You could build a better tourist destination, we have more than enough worship centers in this damn country, and we have more vital sectors to be addressed than tourism.

You said 2 things in one...better tourist destination and addresses others more than tourism.
Our government is working on all spheres of development in the state

DankemzI:
Akwa Ibom should develop their island, make it hospitable for the elites. exclusive weekend getaway spot

My brother is good to ask before you talk ok
On saying that have you heard of Ibom industrial city ?

Heathen777:
The money could have been better spent on projects that actually adds value to the society.

Sir is for tourism boss

DankemzI:
Akpabio na visionary man I swear!
imagine hosting a FIFA event in the state and getting thousands of fans to tour and explore Akwa Ibom, Tropicana inclusive,... this project needs to be completed by Udom for posterity sake and the good of Akwa Ibom

Yes boss he will

lordaltruist:
Bro trust me when I say that the place to be now is Akwa Ibom State why because it is the only and fastest growing state in Nigeria.

Akwa Ibom as a state can not be compared to the states that were created along with it and today even states that were created before her are envious of the pace at which it's developing.

So trust me when I say that your investment in Akwa Ibom State won't go in vain; there are better government policies to see that your investment meets its purpose compare to other state; secure, peaceful and serene environment with welcoming people too.

My uncle just moved to Akwa Ibom State and he is already telling me had it been he knew he would have moved earlier that there are so many opportunities to tap from in the state.

I myself I am looking at moving there to start up a business idea cause as a fast growing state, any business that come in now takes the biggest share.

This is beautiful ...God bless you and your uncle amen

I don't think that are Akwa ibomites but even if they re, I never said we don't have poor people in my state but compared to the north, we are relatively better. And besides I didn't see them picking food from the ground like the northerners do and there are wearing clean clothes unlike the ones in the north.
If they drop this ones and the ones in the north who do you think is doing better economically?

Abohboy:
It’s an American electric car company, named mims motors. 100% black owned car company. And their cars have more mileage than any other electric car on the market. So I contacted him on twitter to talk about setting up plants in Africa. And he said he had plans of setting up one in akwa ibom and also building a power plant, which was very interesting. He plans to start production by 2021.

Wow that power plant will be built in Akwa Ibom?
