No they don't, simply because you say or think so.
But now that they are about to get it what are you going to do about it?

To everyone that thinks like you am sure there are 1000 others who are delighted to have the stadium.

Am sure there were these who thought or still think like you about the Nest of champions, and the ikot ekpene stadium, but that has not stopped those edifice from being built.

You folks have to know that government job is to provide social infrastructure like roads, stadium, schools, libraries etc,those are not profit making ventures but provide a bedrock for better society,

Yes we like this type of "bad government " that leave on ground excellent infrastructure on ground for us and our children to come an enjoy.

You can go an enjoy your "good government " that steal all your state resources with nothing on ground to show for it.

In Akwa all our governors have left us with great legacy projects visible for all to see, whether you like the infrastructure or not is another story, but there have been delivered and they keep delivering.

If this is "bad government " we want more of it!!!

Kudos to Udom and the people of Eket, Atouke any update from the Eket international market?

Breath taking..
