Obi was the first governor to Build a 10 lane road.

Mhistaedie01:
Big cap... I live along this airport road and you're just speaking English

Mhistaedie01:
What's the use of lying that's 10 lane... E no even reach naw
Make we de lie small small na�

annisy:
Complete waste of public funds! How many cars dey Akwa-ibom state? Invest in ventures that will create jobs for the people in Akwa-ibom

Benesis:

No dey whine yourself. All my life, Uyo to Oron na sonething o dey do 3 times weekly

Savie:
nonsense. instead of putting more energy in ibom deep seaport, he is busy chasing something that will not improve the living standard of akwa ibomites that are in abject poverty. fool!sh people

nesphil:
All I can say is that "Akwa Ibom State is Rising!".

nesphil:
Have you been to the state before? Go and google about Akwa Ibom Roads and see the kinds of road that AKS have(both in the Urbanand in the Rural centers.You don't need to fix all the village roads before you do these, thank you.

Rhozabeth:
I just like this state!

hardbody:
I fly Ibom air almost every month when I am going to my villa (instead of owerri airport) and believe me the road all the way from the airport to my village is as smooth as okro. The only bad spot you will enter is the boundary between Akwa Ibom and Abia State. If I could cede Abia state to Akwa Ibom, just because of road I will gladly do that, anyday.

ComeToJesus:
Inasmuch as I beleive in empowering indigenous firms, Udom should have stuck with Julius Berger. All these indigenous contractors are ethically fraudulent and do not comply with international benchmarks. Watch how they'll use 5 bags of cement where the standard measurement is 10 bags.


All the roads Akpabio uses Berger to construct are still motorable today.

mywells:
Akwa Ibom is learning behind Lagos.

Litmus:
You mean Relative poverty.

There's a YouTube video in which a Lagos taxi, Owner-Driver, is seen bitterly complaining to a white vlogger on how he hated Nigeria because of his poverty and wished to jappa abroad. A decade ago, a car owner taxi driver in Nigeria would be firmly in the lower middle class bracket. In natural terms, you're not poor if you're not starving to death. In Nigeria, the majority of the people own or have ability to own land in their villages. Land ownership in the West is the preserve of the mostly wealthy or above average wage earners.

Poverty, contemporarily, is a political concert. Africa needs a conversation on the meaning of poverty.

Tellwhat:
Sorry but you don't know what you're talking about

Have you even see Ibom Air? Something a whole Nigerian government couldn't do

The akwa ibom airport is economically viable especially once the next governer works on tourism

ocelot2006:
I beg to differ on your point. The airport road is extremely important. Keep in mind that when the deep sea port kicks off, it will equally serve as a main artery. Besides, think of the Uruan communities connected via the road. Also note that Uyo metropolis is slowly expanding out towards the airport. The 10 lane road is a welcomed one, but I pray the govt. completed it before the end of Udom's tenure.

PharoahIII:
I wonder what are priorities are, akwaibom dey try for infrastructure but infrastructure does not put money in the pocket. People dont have money in aks, no jobs nothing at all. Do any biz there at your own risk. That so called airport road is always empty, little or no traffic there, each time I drive therell be no more than 5 or so cars on the road. They have arable land in the state why not use a fraction of money spent on infrastructure to improve agriculture which will make the price of food cheaper and in turn create massive employment.

TimeTraveller:
Akwa Ibom is building infrastructure
Some people are sitting at home on Mondays

OriOko88:
Scanty cars and houses everywhere. This kind of road is meant for densely populated areas like Lagos and ibadan. This is wastes of resources. Make dem invest in people by creating jobs.. Mk all those akwaibom youths doing house help jobs for lagos get engaged in their state.
What Is d essence of making broad roads without people and cars plying it

dozai:
Like The icon Lucky Dube said. The best way to build a good society is to get a lot of educated people. I think I stand with that.
Yes, most of the manhole covers installed in the newly built overhead bridges by Wike have been removed. Soon they will start cutting the aluminum side rails.

deflover:
have u people fixed the road to ikotun
have u fixed orile agege roads
or iba inner roads

u bitter yorubas dont want to see development in other states but only ur lagos

matrixme:
Nicest people in Nigeria abi? Tor. The time they will show you their other side is coming. You should be very careful there bro.

SHINJA:
Okoro but Nnamdi kanu said that 90percent of Igbo women are prostitutes

mmsen:
Have you been to Akwa Ibom? The roads to many of the villages are better than most of the roads in the Lagos that people tell me isn't an oversized village.

Dingdongbells:
Where is your statistics? So people from other regions don't cheat outside marriage especially the owambe loving kind that can abandon the home for days or even weeks because of any little event or something occasion. My former neighbor lost her marriage because of that and left very young kids of less than 3yrs to go party at Ibadan. The husband begged her but she never came back. Last time I saw her was under Osodi bridge hawking Agbo-Jedi.
What a life.

Sunnyhillsfarms:
Wish you can visit aks to see the roads ..
Most villages are linked with good tarred roads.

Dingdongbells:
Yes. You can access Uyo, the state capital within 45min from any part of the state. Akwa Ibom even has a fully built gas powered independent power plant in Ikot-Abasi but unable to supply the state because of Nepa/federal Monopoly.
Security is top notch too. Only problem is lack of Industrialization which could boost economic base of the state.

MichaelSokoto:
In all fairness, It can never be like Abuja own!
No offense meant!

SHINJA:
Our southsouth and southwest women don't cheat..

Only Igbo women cheat ,that's why they focus on baby factory...

God bless southsouth and southwest

One brothers

SHINJA:
Why do poor people get angry easily

matotoide:
Aesthetics is important. The company should endeavour to brush off the encroaching sand on the road before taking these kind of publicity shots.
