And you think I haven't seen this video either you or someone else has posted a million times? Plus the same videos and New articles about Akwa ibom seaport which makes Nairaland front page a few times a year ?
I know more than you can imagine. I like Akwa ibom, but take it or leave it , there will be no seaport at Akwa ibom within the next 30 years .
The only seaport on plan is the Calabar seaport at Akpabuyo (I guess they call that border area bakassi) by 2026 ,which will serve the entire cross river and greater Calabar area, including Akwa ibom.
I can't speak for the Cross river governor because that's his job and everyone has different methods.
You don't need oil revenue to build an organized society. You think 12 storey building at ikot ekepen and 20 storey at Uyo are tall? Wait until 2027,just 7 years from now .

You should be proposing Niger delta republic not all these. Niger Delta republic first

It's ok you'll delete your comments and accounts like usual. The port with no funding going to ready in by 2026. It's not surprised the clown Ayade got two terms. Your mumu predictions are funny.

The scammer wants to pay 35,000 hectares for 200m naira. Its clear nobody in the room can do math or the land is worthless.

Go and sit down Ibibio people hate Efik even more, don't be a hypocrite or be spreading lies.
The so-called AkwaCross unity is one of the biggest hypocritical nonsense in existence. They won't even fish in the same river, full of hates and infights.
Ignore that Beachside fellow undecided he knows absolutely nothing about Akwa Ibom or even Nigeria undecided Claiming to be biracial American and well traveled therefore he knows more about Africans and Nigerians themselves, because he's foreignly educated, therefore he's smarter than most Nigerians because it's a failed state. angry I am even trying to teach him some basics but he has Refused to Read angry

There is nothing like Akwacross. Akwa ibom left y'all behind a long time ago. You cross riverians better move on
Ignore that Beachside fellow angry He knows absolutely nothing about Akwa Ibom and am not even sure about Cross River state either undecided I have also told him that "There is nothing like Akwa-Cross, its only a name coin by the Ibibio Movie industry in Uyo to market to Cross River state because they sometimes have 1character that will speak Efik or come from Calabar, Akpabuyo or any Efik village in their movies"

Edusteve:
So all that noise of Akwacross is just for media attention. Believe me Nigeria as a country is totally divided forget media noise

MelesZenawi:


Na media, nothingelse.

Akwa-Cross is only a name coin by the Ibibio Movie industry in Uyo to market to Cross River state because they sometimes have 1character that will speak Efik or come from Calabar, Akpabuyo or any Efik village in their movies. It's just a name for marketing purpose, althou few people prefer it than Efik-ibibio because its includes more groups from the 2state.
Akwa Ibom and Cross River indegenes have always been separate even before the creation of Akwa Ibom state.

Ctorch:
The Cross River State House of Assembly yesterday rejected the confirmation of Justice Akon Ikpeme as substantive Chief Judge (CJ) of the state.



The House was filled with tension yesterday when the matter came up for debate, as courts in the state remained closed in protest against her confirmation.

When deliberation came, two opposing reports were presented for consideration indicating that the Committee on Judiciary that handled the matter may have been divided over sentiments and financial inducement as a faction of the committee led by its Chairman, Efa Esua cleared Ikpeme for confirmation, while another led by Godwin Akwaji (Obudu State constituency) and five others recommended that Ikpeme be rejected because she was not from Cross River State.

Following the confusion, the House after heated debate rejected both reports and a committee of the whole house ultimately rejected her confirmation through a voice vote, a situation for which some members condemned the presentation of two reports.

Also, representative of #Bakassi, Ekpo Ekpo Bassey,cautioned the house against setting a bad precedence, saying, “This is my fifth year in the House and I have never seen two reports being presented to the House from a committee.

The House has to be on the side of justice at all times and avoid setting a bad precedence. We need to strengthen institutions and avoid sowing seeds of ethnicity and disunity in the House.”

Ikpeme hails from Akwa Ibom state, but she is married to an indigene of Cross River. Itam Abang, representing Boki constituency, also said it is sad that the assembly has been prejudiced by ethnic sentiments.

Some of the members of the Cross River State House of Assembly are bad students of history for rejecting the acting Chief Judge Akon Ikpeme as substantive Chief Judge on account of her state of origin. This should not be an issue at all? Justice Udo Udoma of blessed memory a Nigerian from Ikot Abasi Akwa Ibom state became the first Chief Justice of Uganda! You can imagine. What are they even saying? Sad. Shame.

stop this unity begging.. Akwa ibom left cross river for a reason... IF you feel akwa ibomites are too many in your state then send them away... Akwa ibom is doing better and will continue to do better. Some years ago you all were saying that akwa ibom can't have an airport, now there's an international airport... Now you're saying that akwa ibom wont ve a seaport in the ext 30 years.... Watch out! IBaka deep sea port is coming
same thing Edo use to say about Delta when we left them. now Delta is doing better

Maybe the Nigerian Judicial Council should start having a say in who becomes Speaker, deputy speaker in the state house of assembly; and also submit names to the governors for commissioners.

If Nnamdi kanu wants let him go and be packing the whole ethnic group in Nigeria and call it Biafra.....Na him Sabi.



Till tomorrow Hausa pple r still better than Igbo pple. In my place if u give an Igbo man a place he'll device ways to throw u out. They always have this mindset of being better than every other person, even their host community. We can't risk sharing a country with thm. When I remember what my grand dad told us about what Igbo pple use to do to our pple during the civil war I just laugh the coward's decision to put us in his Biafran map. We can never be part of u.

A united and progressive Calabar (Akwacross) is preferred ,but for now I feel Akwa ibom can not be trusted. They think they have it all just due to baseless and unsustainable tangible development and 90 percent offshore oil which Uyo and Ikot ekepene have none of . They breed like rabbits and multiply poverty everywhere ,and they are not looking to unite,assimilate or accept Efik Calabarian methods as the standard and official.
I support denial of the Akwa ibom judge and the appointment of the judge as long as he is from Cross river. that's why there should be ID database to separate wheat from chaff.
On another thread, an akwa ibom individual was bragging that he was born and raised in calabar and ibibio will take over. His Allegiance is to Akwa ibom ,not cross river.
I am American born and raised and mixed race and I qualify to be Governor of Cross river than that guy . it's about roots ,not born and raised.
I don't care if an individual was born and lived ,school and worked all his life in Calabar, you are not from there and should be expelled if you do not pay allegiance to Calabar methods.
There will be no seaport at Akwa ibom within the next 30 years . The only seaport on plan within the next 4 years is the Calabar seaport at Akpabuyo which will serve the entire cross river and the Greater Calabar area including Akwa ibom.
Apart from English ,Efik is the standard and official language of the Cross river and Akwa ibom ,and is in the process of being registered by google.
If Akwa ibom does not agree with these methods, all akwa ibom people should be expelled from cross river and a border wall built., all other mthods will be implemented to punish Akwa ibom forever.
