Akwa Ibom State Commissioner for Economic Development and Ibom Deep Seaport, Mr Akan Okon has assured Nigerians that the Ibom Deep Seaport when completed will be a 'Game Changer to Akwa Ibom State Economy'.

Mr Okon made this known Friday, 3 December, 2021 at the Victor Attah International Airport, Uyo on arrival from Seoul, South Korea where he was part of the Nigerian delegation at the Maritime Sector and Harbour Development Programme.

According to the Economic Development Commissioner: "This trip gave us an opportunity to interact with people in the maritime sector especially Busan Port Officials; Busan Port is the second largest and easiest Port in the world. It's a transhipment port with 17 Meters draft which is similar to what we have at Ibom Deep Seaport.

" The meeting also gave us the opportunity to interact with The Korea Maritime and Ocean University Officials with a view to developing manpower for our citizens that will be able to take advantage of the opportunities that will be created in the Maritime sector as a result of this project.

"We are looking at areas like Maritime logistics, and other businesses associated with the shipping industry."

Reacting to questions about the interactions and the outcome of the interactions, the Commissioner stated that contacts has been created and that the host are interested in the development of the Ibom Deep Seaport due to the stellar presentation made and similarities between the Ibom Seaport and the Busan Port.
He added that Ibom Deep Seaport is expected to be a transhipment port.

The delegation according to the Commissioner also met with the Korean Cooperative for Overseas Port Development with hope of creating a strong partnership aswell as a working relationship with the agency for rapid development of the Seaport.

He assured citizens that the State Government alongside Bolloré, the major investor is moving ahead with the programme implementation, adding that the Geo Physical and the Geo clinical studies will commence in a week time.

The elated Commissioner commended the State Governor, Mr Udom Emmanuel for ensuring that the Ibom Deep Seaport is a reality and for the approval given them to be part of the delegation on maritime sector and Harbour Development Programme.

This is lovely op
@ Lalasticlala, seun , mynd44 front page

This is a welcome development. I am in love with this laudable achievement. Akwa Ibom is doing well.

Just get on with it already!

Udom and good plan for the people of Akwa Ibom state are like 5$6

I've noticed that whenever something is being hyped too much, it usually ends up being trash. The greatest example is the Mannequin.

Why not just get on with it. You Don't need to tell us, when the time comes we'll See if it's really a game changer or another Empty Barrel Development that makes the loudest noise.


I stand to be corrected tho, this could really be a game changer for Aqua Man, sorry Akwa Ibom. let's see

Ilaumoh:

Your stupidity at it peck ..

I won't stoop to your level....Never

the way una dey talk ehn!
you didn't see journalists there asking questions or he shouldn't answer the questions asked??

Spare me the lecture young man.... You're acting as if this is the first time someone will answer Questions asked by Journalists.... Whether he answers or not is not my problem, will the Deep seaport live up to expectations.... Remember there was a lot of Hype during the Period of Nigerian Airways, where's Nigerian Airways today

okotv:
Somewhere in Nigeria, a state has done her deep seaport over 70 percent and almost close to commissioning yet they aren't making noise about it. This one have not even started ground work and they are just disturbing the place.

This is exactly what I'm saying, but you see these people above that quoted me, they were too quick in their attack..... It's like they've forgotten the country they're in.....Big Ups to you Man

Will. How much do you pay moderators to be on front page? Who much are u paid for this constant propaganda? Everytime, Akwa Ibom to... Let them do it and stop peddling lies

Akwa ibom is a pride to the nation

Very nice development

At least one good news, a positive way to start the day, nice development

If only their girls can shun life of perpetual prostitution and their men shun criminal activities which seems to be genetic to these people. You can take an akwa ibom woman anywhere , give her anything but she will still act a whöre and cheat on you .. it's in their genes... Same way their men are genetically predisposed to crime....

But one thing about them is they are awesome cooks, cleaners , drivers and domestic helps ... No one can clean furniture like akwa ibom people.

But my Edo sisters remain the best wife material in the world ... Don't look far come to my.darlimg Edo state and pick a wife for peace of mind ...

Back to this news ... The ritual Yoruba won't like this news as they want everything to be in Lagos

It will be the game changer for the old eastern region which many forces have been trying to subjugate

Okowa na your mate be this O!
Akwa Ibom get Airline and Delta get DeltaLine Bus

Stop talking, just get the job done ASAP. Time wait for no one.

Abeg start construction before you complete am with mouth

Yea, that's true

I'm Yoruba and the respect I have for Ibomites is boundless. Very intelligent people.

I have nothing to comment on threads like this.

Dts a very good development

Mr Akan Okon, my man.

No Lagosian gives a shit what's going on in Akwa-Ibom.

We got bigger fish to fry.

This is good but I dont like over hiping something. Execute the project, commission it, put it in use and then start making noise about the benefits.

I don't like this idea of talking about something so much when it has not come into existence.

Sometimes, I see it as politics. Its clear Udom is working and that's commendable but I'll advise you concentrate your energy on bringing the project to reality that too much publications. My thought.

Everything good outside the North and SW happens in the South-South.

I am not even dissing. NOTHING is happening in the SE.
No infrastructure. Low VAT. Insecurity. Hate and utter bitterness towards other regions/tribes.

Akwa Ibom and Cross Rivers are more developed and more liveable than all the SE states put together.
Yet, you won't see them jumping around and chest-beating.

This is a good development for Akwa Ibom people and for the rest of South south and East no need to journey far to Lagos before getting your goods cleared, I think all state governors should be doing well like this for their own state but some will choose to loot the money meant for public projects execution and convert it to their personal use.

Udom media warriors on it again.

Good work Akwa Ibom, what are the northern governors doing to provide jobs for their over populated regions. Soon they will come to Akwa Ibom to beg for jobs to be given to them. We need to restructure and we need state police.

Good one.
