Leadership is turn by turn, Udom Emmanuel the governor elect is from Eket senatorial District. this is the main road leading to his village , it is incumbent on him to tar this road and bring development to this Senatorial District. Akpabio did not abandon the district he did his best for the state, Akpabio built 1900 km of roads in 8 yrs that a record in Nigeria by any state government. The truth is there was no major road that was functional in the state as at 2007 when Akpabio came on board, But in truth the Even Akpabio worst critic will attest to the excellent road network in Akwa Ibom,But despite all the roads he did there are still a lot of roads left undone, So At a certain point he had to prioritise. on the ones that were more urgent. To be truthful this Eket roads was the only major road in Akwa Ibom As at when Akpabio came into power that was in a fair condition, so it would have been wrong to start with the road while neglecting the worse one in uyo, itu, ikot ekpene etc. But as time went on depreciation caught up with the Eket – uyo Road and + the fact that all Akpabio had dualized all major roads leading to Uyo so that made it imperative that the This road should also be dualized to meet the Akpabio Standards, Which in truth He started the road with the intention of completing it Until the price of crude oil fell from $120 per barrel to $40 per barrel, which is the part the author of this piece failed to mention.
Now its Eket turn so Udom over to you from may 29th and i hope you complete this road first.
