Just say 1yr, 12 months make it feel not bad

It was a great outing for the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio during the 32nd anniversary inter denominational thanksgiving service celebration of Akwa Ibom State at Ibom Hall Ground.

Hardly had the service ended than a massive crowd trailed him at the event amidst drumming and dancing. The surging crowd held up traffic for several hours along IBB, Nsikak Eduok and Edet Akpan Avenues.

The surging crowd numbering over 5,000 followed him to his Ewet Housing guest house and received the Akpabio touch before dispersing, several hours after the event had ended.

They expressed appreciation to Senator Akpabio for identifying with them and making them to smile during the anniversary celebration.

The Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswll Akpabio has directed the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) to complete on-going projects including the on-going headquarters building project before awarding contracts for new ones.

Senator Akpabio gave the charge when in the company of the Minister of State for Niger Delta Affairs, Mr Festus Keyamo they paid a working visit to the headquarters of the Commission in Port Harcourt on Friday.

During a meeting with the management and staff of the Commission, Senator Akpabio disclosed that the NDDC had more than 12,000 on-going projects across the nine states of the Niger Delta region which experienced funding challenges.

The Minister said it was not a coincidence that two Niger Delta sons were selected by President Muhammadu Buhari to superintend over the affairs of the Niger Delta but a conscious effort at ensuring effective development of the region especially in the areas of infrastructural and human capital development.

According to Senator Akpabio, “The creation of the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs was a direct response to the series of agitations by people of the region flowing from the deep sense of exclusion, environmental degradation, lack of development, poverty and unemployment facing the region,” he said.

On its part he said the NDDC was a child of necessity which was established “with a mission of facilitating the rapid, even and sustainable development of the Niger Delta into a region that is economically prosperous, socially stable, ecologically regenerative and politically peaceful” and said the Commission has to adopt a new template to achieve this mission.

According to Senator Akpabio, “The Niger Delta Development Commission must adopt a well structured funds development regime whereby all funds that accrue to the Commission must be properly utilized in this new era of probity which President Muhammadu Buhari demands,” he said.

In her welcome address, the acting Managing Director, Dr Akwagaga Enyia said the Commission under her watch had embarked upon fiscal responsibility as required by the anti-corruption drive of the Buhari administration. She promised to expeditiously complete the on-going headquarters building project.


Senator Akpabio and Mr Keyamo who later inspected the on-going construction of the headquarters building of the Commission, charged the management to channel more funds into completing the building. They also visited a failed portion of the East-West road and promised an intervention to alleviate the suffering of commuters.

Can this be true

Wickedfacts:
It's just like saying because you see Danfo buses everywhere, Nigerians love Danfo buses. Meanwhile, you're forgetting that people buy Benz, Land Cruiser and other luxury cars in the same Nigeria.

Asa has her audience, it's not for everyone.

Naira Marley can at best be serving drinks when Asa is singing. On the other hand, if Asa is where Naira Marley is, his disciples can steal her phone.

Deep scenario but true

khiaa:
So this is Nigerian culture? The culture you guys are so proud of.

What makes you think it is Nigeria, it can be any African country

Levant:
This is the best solution. The Nigerian government should make a deal with the Iranians. Let him go and not return. Everyone will rest.

Everyone will not rest, propaganda can be exported from there to Nigeria, that's how some movements work

desertboom:

Why so rude

EzeIgboNwaChukwu:
don't be so dumb.
when these students pay such excessively high outrageous Fees why won't the lecturers grade them with super marks.
what I know is that assuming I was in covenant university even without reading, my First class or second class upper is sure for me so far I've paid the necessary fees.
These their so called First class graduates have nothing upstairs and majority of them do fumble during interviews.
As an employer of labor I'll chose a 2:2 graduate of uniben over these dumb First class graduates of Covenant poo university

Be deceiving yourself, ull be withdrawn from the school

mildflame:
Better than building dead projects like e-library and Tropicana

Tropicana was a really good Project that will have improved the social life of uyo, uyo reeks of boredom anytime one stays there for long, very few recreation areas and e-library is also a good Project(HOUSES TECH HUBS)tho it was not well managed. The future is ICT
