The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, will on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, commission a number of projects in Ika Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, according to the Senior Special Adviser to Governor Umo Eno on Research and Documentation, Dr Essien Ndueso. Conducting journalists on a pre-commissioning inspection on Tuesday, Ndueso said the project has significant economic importance to both Akwa Ibom and Abia states. He explained that the road project commenced during former governor Udom Emmanuel’s administration but has been completed under Umo Eno’s dispensation. The road construction begins from Ikot Esu–Otomo in Ika Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State and extends into Azumini Ndoki community in Ukwa East LGA of Abia State. He said that rather than lose sleep over fears of encroachment by the Akwa Ibom government, the people of Abia should be appreciative of the advent of the development project.
