AS GOV. WIKE COMMISSIONS FLYOVER, AKWA IBOMITES KNOCKS UDOM FOR CONSTRUCTING EKOM IMAN FLYOVER FOR 5 YEARS!!!!

The governor of Rivers State Nyesom Wike over the weekend commissioned one of the five flyovers awarded less than a year ago. 
The state of the art flyover is about three kilometer stretch and it's handled by construction giant Julius Berger. While commissioning the first of the five, which is situated at Garrison junction now renamed Rebisi junction flyover, the governor hinted  the minister the works Mr Babatunde Fashola SAN that by December 2020 the Rumuokoro flyover on East-West road will be commissioned while that of Rumuogba (Atillary), Rumuola and others  is slated for February 2021.

The commissioning of the flyover has elicited reactions from Akwa Ibomites who reside in the state and in diaspora.
A cross section of Akwa Ibomites expressed disappointment with Governor UDOM on the Ekom Iman junction flyover which has been on for last five years.

Some residents of Abak and those doing businesses on that Axis are pleading with the governor to expedite action and complete the flyover so as to reduce the untold hardship the "un-ending" construction has brought to them. Residents of Abak say they have to go through a long tedious route to get to Uyo with extra cost. Some small business owners in the area said economic activities has been completely grounded due to the long time the construction has taken.
A visit by our correspondence to the site shows that no serious work is going on. 

A community leader who spoke to our correspondence under the condition of anonimity said the governor has not been fair to them. He wondered why a state with the highest allocation in the federation running into billions will stave such project of funds for over four years and still counting.
He said the community has pleaded with the governor on several occasions to pay the contractors so that they can deliver on the project so that economic life can return to the area.
The Ekom Iman junction flyover is strategic as it leads majorly to Abak,  Ukanafun, Ikot Abasi and Rivers State.

Meanwhile, some residents of Eket are not happy with the governor over the delay in the construction of Atabong and hospital road dualization which has been on for over five years. They complained that the governor has abandoned the less than two kilometer road thereby stalling economic activities in the areas. " They pleaded with the governor to complete the road so as to ease the hardship and suffering of commuters.
