The All Progressives Congress Media Network (APCMN) extends its warmest congratulations to Governor Umo Eno on the flag-off of the construction of the 12.5-kilometer Nung Ukim–Afaha Obio Enwang–Nung Udoe–Itak Road. This vital infrastructure project aims to enhance connectivity between Uyo and Ikono Local Government Areas in Akwa Ibom State.
This significant milestone underscores Governor Eno’s steadfast commitment to rural development and improving the quality of life for residents of Akwa Ibom. The road project, awarded to Verini Construction Company Limited, is an integral part of the state’s infrastructure expansion initiative under the ARISE Agenda. Once completed, this road will not only facilitate greater connectivity but also stimulate socio-economic activities, ease the movement of agricultural produce, and enhance security throughout the region.
The APCMN applauds Governor Eno’s people-first leadership approach, which consistently prioritizes the needs and aspirations of the populace. This project exemplifies his administration’s dedication to inclusive development and rural transformation. We encourage community members, stakeholders, and government officials to attend the flag-off ceremony, signifying the start of a promising new chapter for the residents of Uyo and Ikono.
We at the APCMN are confident that this project will significantly enhance the lives of Akwa Ibom residents by improving access and mobility, while also enhancing the region’s aesthetic appeal and investment potential. We eagerly anticipate the successful completion of this project and look forward to more initiatives that will foster growth and development in Akwa Ibom State.
