Governor Eno To Flag Off Construction Of 12.5Km Road Linking Uyo And Ikono LGA

In fulfillment of his campaign promise and commitment to rural development, Governor Umo Eno will today, flag off the construction of the 12.5-kilometre Nung Ukim–Afaha Obio Enwang–Nung Udoe–Itak Road, a strategic project that cuts across Uyo and Ikono Local Government Areas of Akwa Ibom State.

The flag-off ceremony scheduled to hold today at Nung Ukim by 4:00 PM, marks a significant milestone in the state’s effort to end years of suffering experienced by residents of the affected communities due to the road’s deplorable condition.

Awarded through the Ministry of Works and Fire Service, and to be executed by an indigenous firm, Verini Construction Company Limited, the road project forms part of the Governor’s push to open up rural areas and enhance connectivity under the infrastructure expansion pillar of the ARISE Agenda.

With an 8-metre wide carriageway, 25 kilometres of side drains, and reinforced culverts and outfall drains at key points, the construction is designed for durability. The road will be layered with a 150mm sub-base, 150mm stone base, and a 50mm asphalt wearing course.

When completed, the road is expected to boost socio-economic activities, facilitate the movement of agricultural produce to urban markets, strengthen security coverage, and increase the aesthetic and investment appeal of the region. Most importantly, it will link several underserved communities to the wider state road network, improving access and mobility.

A release by the Akwa Ibom State Commissioner for Information, Rt. Hon. Aniekan Umanah, says the project is a reflection of Governor Eno’s people-first leadership style and a clear demonstration of governance that responds directly to the needs of the people.

“This road project is not just concrete and asphalt. It is a promise kept and a lifeline restored. It represents a new chapter for the people of Uyo and Ikono who have suffered for years due to poor road infrastructure,” the Commissioner stated.

The release enjoins Community members, stakeholders, and government officials to come out and witness the flag-off ceremony, which signals yet another stride in the state’s drive toward inclusive development and rural transformation.

Keep up the good work, if our government can look inward to construct and rehabilitate bad road in rural areas. It will bring easy and better life to people living in the area.

All the best to Akwa Ibom people.

Keep the ball rolling Mr Governor.

Akwa Ibom is not Anambra or Abia state. The people of Akwa Ibom are not Igbos. They are happy with thier governor.

Face your state and stop interfering in the internal affairs of Akwa Ibom state

Wastng money and time for flag off. Just start the work already. 12km is less than ikorodu to ketu

This man jonz oooooooo. Go dey join APC

Carry on Governor. But ensure the road is durable. Indigenous construction companies like cutting corners when they are not properly supervised.

Every body seems not to want to have anything to do with the I.gbos

Hmn. This is deep.

There's nothing that's is as needless as this flagging off nonsense.... Do a project and commission at best

so your own Na the next election be your problem. Who are you to determine who win the next election or not. How many votes can you give any political party? Go and help yourself first before thinking about those who don't know weda you exist.

The worst governor in the history of my state. Everything about him is media.

Ikono is a nice place though exotic chicks, now that a decent road is going there the sky is their beginning.
