The anti-graft agency, ICPC, has tasked Akwa Ibom residents to take more interest in monitoring constituency projects sited in their communities.
The ICPC Commissioner in Akwa Ibom, Shola Shodipo, said this in Uyo on Wednesday at a capacity-building workshop.
The workshop with the theme “Say No Campaign, to Deepen Local Oversight and Budget Tracking at the Grassroots Level” was sponsored by MacArthur Foundation.
Mr Shodipo told the participants that until they took ownership of constituency projects located in their communities, it would be difficult to monitor such projects.
