Rising from its long years of slumber as a civil service state, Akwa Ibom State under Governor Victor Attah presently appears to be in a hurry to tansform itself into an industrial haven through accelerated infrastructural development and urban modernisation. Judith Ufford, Features Editor, who visited parts of the state recently, reports.

THERE is something unique about Ibom Plaza. Alone, it stands out as the first of its kind in the history of city modernisation in Nigeria. Located in the centre of Uyo the capital of Akwa Ibom State, it is a sprawling enclave of sassy shops, water fountains, beautiful bougainvillaea and rose flowers, a viewing centre with wide-screen TV, sparkling walkways and overhead bridges and strategically located park seats. It is like the famous Trafalgar Square in London’s central shopping district or somewhere in the centre of flower-crazy Amsterdam. To go straight to the point: Ibom Plaza is a beautiful place. Indeed, like a work of art, it is an architectural delight with the imprint of a genius.

Designed by Obong Victor Attah, the Governor of Akwa Ibom himself, it came as a foretaste of what the architect-governor planned to do not only with the state capital whose Master Plan he drew, but with the entire Land of Promise. In no other city in Nigeria is there a place like Ibom Plaza. And that was probably what Attah set out to achieve. The plaza was finished in record time. It was fully put to use in 2001. But very soon after that, the Supreme Court’s judgement denying Akwa Ibom State its long-taken-for-granted status as an oil producing state was given. That judgement effectively robbed the state of the money and the prestige that came with such status, tools which the government needed to continue with its programme of infrastructure development and urban modernisation.

The consequence of such sudden loss of a huge chunk of its monthly revenue from the statutory allocation was that the Akwa Ibom State Government’s capital projects could not proceed as rapidly as they were meant to. As a result of this, critics began to say that the Attah administration’s projects were mostly 'white elephants' , that the government should have known it was not going to be able to finance such projects, thereby not embarking on them at all.

But since early last year when the oil-producing status of Akwa Ibom State was restored, such critics may well have been forced to eat their words.

For, since then, the state, to paraphrase the Commissioner for Works, Dr. Udoma Bob Ekarika, has become one giant construction site. From roads construction and rehabilitation to the building of the gargantuan Le Meridien Ibom Five star Hotel and Golf Course project; the setting up of the Ibom Independent Power Plant to the University of Technology and ICT Park, the Ibom Cargo/Hanger Airport to the construction and equipment of many hospitals and rehabilitation of existing ones, the government in Uyo appears to be doing so many things at the same time, all designed to transform Akwa Ibom State from a civil service economy to one driven by industrial production and tourism. Recently, some reporters in the state took an independent tour of some project sites with a view to verifying some of the claims being made by officials of the government on the number of capital projects going on in the state simultaneously.

Multi-sectoral approach

Their aim, however, was not only to, as they say, see things for themselves, they also used the opportunity to interact with some of the contractors handling the jobs at the sites so they could have correct information with which to put out stories on the social and economic development programme of the Attah administration in Akwa Ibom State. Their first port of call for inspection was the Le Meridien Ibom five Star Hotel. Works on projects such as the Five Star Hotel, Independent Power Plant, the University of Technology, renovation of schools and hospitals started in the first tenure of Governor Attah. But in 2004 fiscal year, the state government prioritised projects for execution based on their relevance to its development needs. It also adopted the strategy of expansion and rehabilitation of core infrastructure such as roads, markets, drainage, water supply, housing, parks, electricity and telecommunications.

The idea is to rapidly transform Akwa Ibom State through a multi-sectoral development approach and by so doing, increase productivity, generate employment, reduce poverty, create wealth, empower women and youth, thereby enhancing the socio-economic well being of the people of the state. To this end, the sum of N24.21billion was spent between January and September 2004 on the aforementioned capital projects. Also in the 2004 fiscal year, 14 road contracts were awarded at the cost of N29.48billion, covering the three senatorial districts of Uyo, Eket and Ikot Ekpene. "When we came in, we inherited practically nothing in terms of roads and people were complaining," said Dr. Ekarika, the Commissioner for Works, a medical doctor who until his appointment was Health Commissioner, explaining the apparent emphasis on roads.

"The government had to resolve that there must be development of good road network in the state. As such, a lot of money has been spent on roads in the state." And not just in the cities, although Ekarika said expectedly, more emphasis is laid on the state capital because "that is where people form their first impression about a state. But at the same time, we have had to site projects at the periphery too, so that development could radiate towards that side. "So, the policy thrust of this government is that we must provide access roads to areas of need so that we can use that to develop medium and smale-scale industries and also introduce investors into the country.

A practical edge to that policy was given recently when Governor Attah commissioned 93 rural-based projects as part of his government’s programme of opening up the country-side. The projects were executed by the Inter-ministerial Direct Labour Committee headed by the state Commissioner for Finance, Mr. Umana Okon Umana and which has received a lot of accolades for its efficiency. Ironically, some of the jobs done through contracts have not fared as well, a situation the state governor is quite unhappy about. Criticising the way and manner some of the contractors had handled their multi-million jobs, particularly Shelter Afrique Housing Projects and the 50 unit houses per local council across the state, Governor Attah threatened to bring the full weight of the law on the erring contractors, besides revoking their contracts.

Speaking at re-award of the contract for the state’s palm produce depot, among others, Obong Attah said contractors did a poor job in the housing project, pointing out that the action had necessitated renovation by the buyers of those houses. "Somebody will put conduit but no wires; somebody will fix the toilet but no tiles," the governor complained. During his routine monthly inspection of projects, Dr. Ekarika, for his part, warned the contractors handling road dualisation projects in Uyo to improve on the quality of their jobs or have their contracts awarded to other more serious construction firms. Ekarika is stung by complaints by residents about the quality and pace of work on some of the projects. He particularly frowned at the slow pace of work by KNCC Nigeria Limited, the construction company handling the Atiku-Abubakar dual-carriage way in Uyo city. To make good government’s threats, a section of the Uyo Five Star Hotel road dualisation Project was recently re-awarded to Mothercat Limited since Zerock which was originally awarded the contract appeared not to have shown enough seriousness in the execution of the project.

Zerock Construction also handles the Uyo-Airport dualisation project. But the Commissioner commended the firm handling the road project at the Uyo Industrial Estate and expressed satisfaction at the pace of work at the megawatts electricity sub-station being undertaken by the state government. The industrial estate when completed is expected to strengthen the industrial base of the state, ensure steady economic growth and attract serious investors to the state. Agro-allied processing firms are to be established in the industrial estate, to take advantage of the state government’s expanded agricultural production programme, which is beginning to yield fruits in the areas of cassava, palm nuts and livestock production.

Already some investors have acquired large expanses of land to start setting up their factories in the estate. Briefing newsmen at the end of the inspection by Dr. Ekarika, his Information counterpart, Mr. Parchi Umoh who accompanied him, restated government’s resolve to develop the state into a land of limitless opportunities for investment.

"I can tell you that Akwa Ibom is lucky because the same person who drew the Uyo Master Plan about 12 years ago happens to be the same person implementing it as governor and that is why we are seeing this level of commitment from government," Mr. Umoh enthused. However, some cynicism and doubts still trail some of the claims made by the state government, especially with regard to execution of those small-and-medium-scale economic projects by the state inter-ministerial direct labour committee. But Governor Attah was to assure the people of the state, while presenting his 2005 budget to the state House of Assembly, that the 93 direct labour projects consisting of 61 electricity, 27 mini-water and five sundry projects spread across the state, were real. "The list of completed projects is displayed and anybody could assess them for authentication," Obong Attah declared.

Cynical reports

To forestall such cynical reports and expression of doubts by the public as to the existence of these projects, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor Mr. Ise Akpaso recently organised a tour of the project sites for the Correspondents Chapel in the state.

The team visited an erosion control site behind the School of Midwifery, Anua Offot where a land-filling project, being handled by Zerock Construction Company is being undertaken by the state government. The project manager Mr. Ali Hamga who spoke with journalists disclosed that the depth of the gully being sand-filled was about 650 metres and that the project would be completed in the next three months. When completed, it will greatly check the surging erosion that could destroy the entire school and its environs. Indeed, to protect its huge investment in infrastructure development and upgrading in the state, a handsome amount of N6.19billion was made available in the 2005 budget to the Environmental and Urban Development department of the Ministry of Works by the state government. This is to ensure timely completion of the various on-going drainage and flood control schemes in the state.



The sum of N2billion is particularly provided for the completion of the on-going Uyo Drainage Project especially Nkemba Trough. Among others, one particular project has, however, earned the applause of most Akwa Ibomites, even its arch-critics for the urban development effort of the Obong Attah administration. And that is the relocation of parks from the heart of Uyo main town which has always tended to make nonsense of the beautification of the city through indiscriminate mounting of motor parks by touts, to a more convenient location within the metropolis.

Located on a large expanse of land on the Ikot-Ekpene Road, the ultra-modern Uyo Motor Park has a capacity for 800 taxis and 200 luxury buses, boasts five hydrant fire engine equipment, 64 open stores and toilet facilities. Handled by Mallum Nigeria Limited, it is expected to be completed by April 2005 and will be the first of its kind in Nigeria when finally put to use.
And he is doing more


The airport is going to be the first of its kind in Africa and its going to have a two runway tarmac, and its going to have one of the sophisticated equipments,
Every streets, roads, lane is been tarred with good drainage systems, There is enough light on the streets, the streets is been changed from the Y shape to the new modern T shape.
Men! The Ibom 5 STAR hotel is been ranked as the world class hotel in Nigeria, Cos Nigeria doesn't have none, Ibom Plaza I don't need to talk about it , Just come and see for your self, The plasma TV is very large where its brings people from all spheres of The states together in case of Match watching, At nights it looks like London, The street are clean and the roads are swept daily. If you guys are doubting me travel to Akwa Ibom and see things for yourself

The governor from inception had planned to run the state on the wings of modern technology, just sitting in his office and communicating with the various ministries and the workers. That project then was still some steps away from reality although there were some vestiges of activities.

But getting to know the city the following day, two projects caught my attention; the Ibom Square and the Ibom Meridien, both of them under construction. Looking at those projects images of tourism came crashing on my mind, things that were possible came in torrents.

The Ibom Square emerged out of an audacious move to restore sanity to a maze of roads that asphyxiated what should have been one of the liveliest areas of the capital. It had an amphitheatre where live performances could take place.

But the hotel was a different ball game. Taken out of the heart of the city to a solitary undulating hilling ground, the hotel was positioned to overlook a dense foliage.

There was plan for an international golf course. Just one look at the trees and my guess was that there should be some water down there. This was confirmed. There were plans for the waters to be opened up into the Calabar Rivers.

Last weekend when I had the opportunity to be at Uyo again I made only one request: could I be taken to the hotel? It was in going to the site of the hotel that I saw the multiplicity of development projects going on in Akwa Ibom. There were several road projects and in fact the road to the hotel has been tagged an express way.

The hotel is halfway ready. An 18-hole golf course has also emerged in the plains and finishing touches are being put to it. Far off, opposite the Meridien, an airport is also being scheduled for construction with the support of some Americans. The airport apart from emptying traffic into the state will provide facilities for comprehensive checks including D-Check on planes, the only one in this part of the world at the moment.

Life is returning to that lonely state. Fortunately for Attah he has also won the resource control case and more money is rolling into that state where people openly wept a few years ago.

Now the verve is back. The tongue is unbound and the people can boast one more. Attah was right in fighting that war after all. A winner will always find friends anyway, the reason he has become a folk hero of sorts.

But standing at the site of the hotel, I whispered to my self: I love hotel. I love tourism. But I hate those who lie to the President about the money tourism can bring to the country without putting structures and facilities on ground that can enable tourism grow.

In this state the government is leading a quiet revolution in promoting tourism and the results may begin to come in a matter of months.

Men what of Akwa Ibom? Akwa Ibom is one of the cleanest

The AIDS pandemic is a disaster for humanity, but a gold mine for
some multinational chemical companies, it seems. While AIDS is still
spreading in advanced countries such as Australia and the USA, nine
out of 10 new HIV infections are now occurring in the Third World.
However, most treatments coming out of the laboratories of North
America and Europe are affordable only in the richest countries.

In Africa, where it is expected that 18 million people will be HIV
positive by the end of the century, most governments and health
authorities can't even afford the blood tests that would enable them
to keep track of the problem. In South Africa, the richest country on
the continent and by no means the one with the greatest AIDS problem,
it is estimated that the direct and indirect cost of the disease will
be around $20 billion in the next eight years. HIV infection is
expected to treble in Asia within five years.

Meanwhile, the chemical giant Burroughs-Wellcome has cornered the
market in AZT (zidovudine), the main drug so far with a proven ability
to slow the progress of AIDS. Last year, the company raked in about
$300 million from AZT - just one of the newer lines in an extensive
range. The drug was licensed for use in humans only four years ago.
About 40% of the take from AZT is estimated to be profit, even after
the company reduced the price by around 20% in response to protests.

In the US, a year's supply of AZT for one person costs around
US$8000, perhaps okay for those who have adequate medical insurance,
but a disaster for those who don't. US AIDS activists say these prices
don't reflect the drug's production cost; bootleg supplies are much
cheaper, though illegal. Australian prices for patented AZT are even
higher, largely because the drug companies are aware that Medicare
will pick up the tab.

The company is not simply recovering development costs. A March 1991
court action by the New York-based People With AIDS group made it
clear Burroughs-Wellcome contributed very little to the development of
the drug, and its right to the patent is dubious. The AIDS-related
qualities of the drug were first developed by researchers for the US
National Cancer Institute, not Burroughs- Wellcome.

Jerome Horowitz of the Michigan Cancer Foundation discovered AZT in
1964, but at the time it seemed to have no useful role and it was
extremely toxic. In 1974, Wolfram Ostertag at Germany's Max Planck
Institute discovered that AZT inhibited retroviruses in mice, but at
that time no such viruses were known to exist in humans.

Wellcome studied the compound from 1982 to 1984, but in 1984
declined to participate in an NCI search for drugs that would work
against HIV/AIDS because, it said, human retroviruses were not
treatable, live HIV was too dangerous to work with and HIV experiments
were unlikely to be profitable.

Eventually Wellcome handed over some compounds to the NCI for study,
and the NCI discovered the AIDS-inhibiting qualities of AZT. Wellcome
immediately filed for a British patent even though its scientists had
not discovered the drug and had not participated in the HIV
experiments.

It later took out a US patent as well. The US application did not
reveal that work on the drug in humans had been done at the NCI and
Duke University. The patent was approved in 1988.

In 1989, NCI director Sam Broder and several colleagues wrote to the
New York Times saying, "one of the key obstacles to the development of
AZT was that Burroughs-Wellcome did not work with live AIDS virus nor
wish to receive samples from AIDS patients".

It seems the prices of other AIDS drugs are also kept outrageously
high by the fact that their patents are owned by private chemical
companies. Acyclovir, another Wellcome line, netted the company around
$400 million last year. This one is more established than AZT, having
been on the shelves for nearly a decade.

Burroughs-Wellcome is by no means the only AIDS profiteer. In 1984
Lypho-Med, a smaller US company, increased the price of a pneumonia-
fighting drug, pentamidine, from around $34 to around $136 per unit as
its use increased among people with AIDS. By 1988, public protest
forced the price down again.

Another company, Roche, controls ddI and ddC, which are similar to
AZT and often used in conjunction with it. They cost about two-thirds
the price of AZT. Roche also sells Bactrim, used to fight pneumonia
and urinary infections in people with AIDS. Private multinational
companies control most of the research into AIDS because they have
budgets many times larger than those of most government research
bodies.

At least a dozen potential AIDS vaccines are being tested at
present. If the chemical companies run true to form, none of them is
likely to be much cheaper than AZT.

materials:
an iPod with USB cable (or anything that charges with USB)
-battery holders that can hold 3 batteries (I used 2 duel AA holders and rewired one to hold one AA)
-a female USB socket
-a case (I used a mint tin)
-something that can make a rectangular hole in the case

First, cut a hole that will snuggly fit the USB port. Slide the port in and tighten the hole by bending back metal, glueing or whatever you want.

Now you should make a chain of batteries. Attach 3 1.5v batteries together using the holders. You may have to improvise but this is what i have.
DO NOT USE MORE THAN 5v OF BATTERY, this will fry the iPod.

Now you may connect the batteries to the usb plug. Now all you have to do is secure everything, I used hot glue. It not only secures but it also insulates.

I hope with this codes you can customize your phones

Enhanced Full Rate will give you much better sound quality when you enable it. The new Enhanced Full Rate CODEC adopted by GSM uses the ASELP (AlgebraicCode Excitation Linear Prediction) compression technology. This technology allows for much great voice quality in the same number of bits as the older Full Rate CODEC. The older technology was called LPC-RPE (Linear Prediction Coding with Regular Pulse Excitation). Both operate at 13 kilobits.(but you take up more space on the network, so they can charge you more) - Talk-time is reduced with about 5%

Thanks 4 the info pal.................

Kanye west and Fabolous, which of the the duet do u like most and which of them rap most? and which one their lyrics makes more sense? My fellow nairalanders just compare and contrast

Men i do not know what you guys are talking about Ja -rule is world sought after artiste, you can't compare A one year man to Ja-rule, Have you heard jarule's latest album EXODUS, Oh boy i love it, i just bought a copy of it last 3 days, so don't compare a small boy 50cent who beefed Jayz,Murder Inc, even fat joe. men thats nasty, don't compare him to Jarule cos ja rule is more complicated than him. ok! You got that But well i like 50 though, I will like him to slow down a lil bit of his beef rhymes. That will be better 4 him
