Ibom people don't do things on paper.... It always on reality...

Ibom world classed stadium..

Ibom international airport

Ibom power station

IBom Air transport

The recent commission 21 storey building are all real, not on paper.

I don't even mentioned oil and gas sectors.

Akwa Ibom has all it take to be a country of it own..

You forgot Ibom city ferry

BKayy:
Flyovers, keke and Okada is built because dumb men are leading another slightly dumber masses.
I still maintain and support the quote that when a fool is elected into power that the masses are well represented.

Look at all Nigerian states, you will see a pattern and that pattern reflect the collective view of the masses.

off your mic

Good to hear. Being the top oil producing state comes with a lot of disposable income. This process will actually boomrang the Eastern economy. Thumbs up to akwa ibom people and government

Well said

nzeobi:
Yes this is what is called sustainable development and it will bring money into the economy not building flyovers for Keke and okada

Well said

BKayy:
This is what we call development. Thinking into the future.
Dubai was built with the port not the oil. Read my Vision by Ibn Rashid Al-Maktoum.

Oil was used to build the port, then the port was used to attract investment and expatriates to the city.
Having money is one thing and attracting people to come and spend the money with you is another thing. Minus the port, Dubai will just be a rich lonely place that nobody wants to hear of like the other 4 Emirates that nobody wants to hear of in UAE except that they are now becoming part do Dubai Metropolis.

Imagine owing your reputation as being part of your fellow Emirates metropolis. An Emirate in a country just like you. Mehn, vision is what differentiates leaders and Akwa Ibom is not lucky to have one because a leader is the representation of the collective views of the masses.
If you have a clueless /stupid leader or governor then the majority of the state clueless and stupid.
Most Nigerians are stupid and as such will continue to have stupid presidents.

Exactly

kettykings:
It seems this is the only Niger Delta State with a government, i still don't understand Rivers state , Delta Can be excused on the ground of being late into the race

yeah right

nzeobi:
Udom is transforming that state with the resources available and I commend him. Things like this are viable instead of building stadiums that will not generate any money and building or painting flyovers when people are unemployed and hungry

When the bua refinery starts working they will use the port for export and aba will also use it

Spot on

BKayy:
These people are serious oh.
Viva Akwa Ibom, I want you people to know that we are supporting you people from over here.
Make this deep port a reality and save us the stress of Lagos and Apapa port.

Will sure do that

KingOKON:
Attah fought the federal government and brought all the goodies Akpabio and Udom are now enjoying
They aren't and will never be anything close to Attah,
Udom is even trying to get the IOCs down here, Akpabio did nothing

Udom
Attah
Akpabio

KingOKON:

Akpabio destroyed the master plan, built a stadium where it shouldn't be.
Built Tropicana in a business district, now Udom is building a worship center in that location don't they know in years to come the traffic in that axis will be hell?
Akpabio built e-library another waste and distortion instead of completing the science park
Oblong Victor Attah was and still remains the greatest

All of them are unique in their ways

Biggcake:
Ikpa you are doing well.

In a few years time if this developmental speed is sustained then you'll have to take back your words, Akwa Ibomites are naturally travelers and explorers! Akwa Ibom is very young and vibrant, judiciously dotting her i's and crossing her t's

You don’t need to respond to him .. From his comments you should sense hate and jealousy already na

Emperor5:
Very commendable. I can see good governance in akwa ibom, but I haven't heard about akwa ibom man making it big in Yankee or any part of naija. What could be the reason?

The have but run on low key

Savie:
Lol you don't know nigerian politics. I think udom knows well that the man in aso rock is a tribal bigot, so he want to sent his fellow tribe man to head the delegation in order to win his favor into fast actuallising the seaport.

Exactly

tutudesz:
What about Delta State Their allocation is bigger than Akwa Ibom and yet nothing to show for it

Really ?

temitope27:
Is this man really trying? Akwa ibomite

That guy is supered

yinkus6750:
Thats the problem.
We politicise everything.
Its not all about party, more of the individual in charge of governance .
Political parties have both performing and non performing governors .

Your right

BKayy:
LOL
I like the your comment. I like the way you are not stingy with the truth.

Me too

Burukutuhari:
Mods, can nigerians especially the north eschew religious biggotery nepotism and support this Udom as president with out rancour. Can the west support this man now eschewing tribalism, bringing tinubu, osibanjo and all those disgruntled elements with out vision.
Udom 4 president. Action speaks louder than voice.
Long live, the working gov.
Long live, Biafra Republic

Supported , udom for president

Chrisyul:
It is significant to the development of Akwa Abasi Ibom state therefore I pray the governor to do it well by keeping it where it was originally scheduled for by expert for due and continuous output. God bless our governor HE Mr. Udom Emmanuel and God bless Akwa Ibom state.

So where was it originally plan for ?

GROANS BY PROPERTY OWNERS END, AS GOV UDOM MOVES TO COMPLETE MORE MAJOR ROADS


With no furore from Akwa Ibom State property owners who are affected by the ongoing roads constructions, many persons may be led into believing that construction of roads had ceased in the state.

A visit to major projects construction sites such as the Uyo -Etinan Road, the Etinan-Ndon Eyo Road, the Etinan - Eket Road, Uyo - Airport Road and the Airport-Okobo dual carriage ways, reveal remarkable progress of work, despite the deafening silence.

Akwa Ibom State Commissioner for Works and Fire Service, Prof. Eno Ibanga has opened up on why payment of compensations to property owners for right of way on road project sites in the state, is no longer a major problem.

In a chat with newsmen in Uyo, the Works Commissioner who noted that the government of Governor Udom Emmanuel has a human face in its dealings with benefiting communities and property owners.

He explained that under his watch the ministry allows the valuers and the property owners to take responsibility for their entitlements.

"Government must have a human face and that's what we are doing. Yes, we are paying compensation and we give opportunity to whichever valuer you think you can pick.

"Even after we have paid them their money, we give a time frame of two weeks for property owners to take away your belongings and retrieve whatever they wish from the buildings, before we move in to have a right of way.

"Whatever the valuer recommends is what we pay them.

"We don't get question the valuers and we thread with caution with the property owners because when a person builds a house , there is an emotional attachment, and we take all that into consideration while dealing with them.

" We pay the stipulated amount given by the valuer and they sort it out with the owners of the properties. We don't get involved in personal relationship with valuers and that has brought peace.

"Secondly, if you complain about the compensation, we can bring a second valuer to look at it. We are humans too.

He explained that they concentrated on right of way on the 20km Etinan-Ndoneyo road and have obtained 17.4km right of way with major focus on demolitions of structures pending fair weather.

He lauded the quality of work done by construction giants, Julius Berger with regards to road thickness and asphalting stating that the axis would be a major link to the industrial development areas.

"With what is happening at the Ibom Deep seaport and free trade zone, that axis would be an industrial hub.

"The new University is also at that axis, it's also an entry from the town to the development areas down to Port Harcourt.

" All kinds of heavy duty vehicles would ply that road so the quality is of high standard", he added.

He eulogised Governor Udom Emmanuel for being a visionary leader and commended his industrialization expansion programmes especially the expansion on going at the Uyo - Airport road axis.

Prof Ibanga expressed displeasure over the slow pace of work at some project sites in the state, charging the contractors to redouble efforts to deliver quality projects despite the rains.

He said Governor Emmanuel has lived up to its part of agreement by releasing adequate funds to contractors to enable them to fulfill their own part, but it was sad to notice the slow pace of work at some project sites recently visited.

The commissioner had earlier within the week held a meeting with contractors handling different projects across the state at the Conference Hall of the Ministry at the Secretariat Annex, Udo Udoma Avenue, Uyo, the state capital.

He noted that while some of the contractors had proven to be reliable partners by showing commitment, ingenuity and strict adherence to professionalism in handling their projects, others were yet to make any impressive efforts.

Prof. Ibanga insisted that the unfriendly weather occasioned by frequent rainfall should not be an excuse as there were some stages of work that could still be achieved despite the rains, and frowned at contractors, who used it as an excuse to stay away from project sites.

I am part of the Nigerian delegation to the Maritime Sector and Harbour Development programme in Seoul, South Korea. Led by Nigerian Ambassador to South Korea, Ambassador Ali M. Magashi, the visit will help offer inputs for the development of lbom Deep Seaport.

The visit will also enable Akwa Ibom State tap into the broadening bilateral relationship between Nigeria and South Korea, especially in the areas of maritime security and economic development.

Having invested so much in the Ibom Deep Seaport, the administration of Governor UDOM Emmanuel will continue to seek ways that would ensure the Ibom Deep Seaport is optimally beneficial to Akwa Ibom people, when it is finally established. On our part, we'll continue to work tirelessly to drive Governor Udom Emmanuel's lofty vision for Akwa Ibom State.

Secretary to the State Government, Dr. Emmanuel Ekuwem and Chairman of the Technical Committee for the Realisation of Ibom Deep Seaport, Mrs Mfon Usoro are also part of the delegation.
