Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno has commissioned the 6.475-kilometre Amanyam–Mbiaso Road in Ikot Ekpene, reaffirming his administration’s commitment to projects aimed at improving the lives of residents.
The road was commissioned on Thursday, at Amanyam, Ikot Ekpene, as part of activities marking the state’s 39th anniversary.
Speaking at the event, Governor Eno said his administration remained focused on development and improving the quality of life of the people rather than engaging in unnecessary politicking.
“Whatever developmental efforts that we are putting in place are tailored towards the overall benefit and improved living conditions of our people. We don’t play politics with the welfare of our citizenry,” he said.
He announced plans for additional development projects in the area, including the Ikot Ekpene International Market, Compassionate Homes, Primary Health Centres and other road projects.
Governor Eno commended the Chairman of Ikot Ekpene Local Government Area, Hon. Aniefiok Nkom, for his efforts in executing people-oriented projects, describing similar initiatives by local government chairmen across the state as encouraging and a reflection of the benefits of local government autonomy.
Giving an overview of the road project, the Commissioner for Works, Eno Ibanga, said the 6.475-kilometre single-carriageway road has an eight-metre width and 12.95 kilometres of side drains.
