Ibom Seaport projectChairman, Technical Committee on the Ibom Sea Port, Mrs. Mfon Usoro, has told the host communities that getting Federal Government’s approval for the project does not make it an entirely Federal Government project.
She stated this during a stakeholder meeting at the Oron Union Secretariat, saying the committee was following due process since the project fell under the exclusive list of the Federal Government. x

“So, to allay such misconceptions, the committee had to put the records straight and solicit their support and cooperation with would-be investors for the execution of the project. The Federal Government approved the processes emanating from the technical committee because port operations are under the exclusive list.
The state Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Comrade Ini Ememobong, who disclosed this while briefing Government House correspondents after a State Executive Council at Government House, Uyo said, following the report presented to the Council by the Chairman Technical Committee on Ibom Deep Seaport Actualisation and Development, Mrs. Mfon Usoro, said all steps towards the actualization of the Akwa Ibom dream project was on track.
