VICE President Yemi Osinbajo, weekend, pledged Federal
Government commitment towards the timely completion of Ibom Deep Sea Port
project in Akwa Ibom State...
Vice President stated this at the Godswill Akpabio
International stadium after commissioning live touching projects to mark the
30th anniversary celebration of the creation Akwa Ibom State. He disclosed that
the Federal Government has made provision in Nigerian Port Authority, NPA, and
2017 budget for the development of Ibaka Deep Sea Port. He said that the
Federal Government was prepared to enter into partnership with any state of the
federation for the purposes of development. Prof Osinbajo advised Nigerians
against breaking the bond of brotherhood and peace that had existed in the
country for decades. He said: “Citizens everywhere should not sit idle when
misguided elements recklessly destroy the common bond of brotherhood and
friendship that has put us together for decades. Peace is the foundation of
enduring prosperity, for peace to reign everywhere in Nigeria all of us as
Nigerians all must make necessary sacrifices.” This came as Governor Udom
Emmanuel of the state expressed disappointment over the lack of federal
presence in the state despite its position as the largest oil producer in the
country. He also lamented failure of the Federal Government to refund the money
owed the state over so many years for the construction of federal roads in the
state. Governor Emmanuel stated this yesterday at Uyo Township Stadium during
the interdenominational thanksgiving service to mark the 30th anniversary of
the creation of the state, saying “Akwa Ibom as the largest oil producer does
not have even one depot, Akwa Ibom as the largest oil producer has no refund on
money spent on federal roads constructed here and no single federal presence.
“Every single development you see in this state today is instituted, initiated
and finished up by our good leaders God had given us in this state.” So today
we have come to thank God for our state, and we should note that every good and
perfect gift comes from God. The state is a good and perfect gift because it is
a state named after God.” Members of the Federal Executive Council that graced
the thanksgiving service were Senator Udoma Udo Udoma Minister of National
Planning and Budget, and Minister of Finance Mrs .Kemi Adeosun.
