As his May 29 exit date draws closer, concerned indigenes of Ukanafun local government area of Akwa Ibom State have commended Governor Udom Emmanuel for the
He said, “After several calls we have been launching since September 2022, to the state government to cause resumption of works at the site of the project, which was initiated and abandoned about 15 years ago, nothing has been done as at today, which is about 38 days to the end of the Udom Emmanuel eight-years’ administration.
“May be, it is proper to state that the only thing done to the knowledge of the public remains a statement issued by the Akwa Ibom State information and strategy commissioner, Comrade Iniobong Ememobong, on January 27, 2023, that the work at the site of the hospital has reached advanced stage, and would soon be commissioned.
“Till date, the fact remains that the site of the project is now dilapidated and bushy. It is the considered view of the UK-PRO that time has come for the proposed Ukanafun Cottage Hospital to be declared a failed completion agenda. “For those who have been following the activities of UK-Pro, the declaration of the failed completion agenda, is not a hasty conclusion. Maybe, it is exhaustion of our patience since the Udom Emmanuel administration has about 38 days left and this uncomplimentary, but truthful remark stems from failure to complete a project that commenced and curiously got terminated in the early days of the previous administration.
“The fact that government is a continuum does not translate that a project that should normally be completed within a year or thereabout should be dwelt upon indefinitely by every succeeding administration in the state.”
