Abia Lawmaker Accuses Akwa Ibom Of Unauthorised Road Construction

The member representing Ukwa East constituency in the Abia State House of Assembly, Lewis Obianyi, has alleged unauthorised construction of Uzonta-Azumini Road in the constituency by the Akwa Ibom State government.
Obianyi made the allegation this weekend on Friday after inspecting the graded portion of the road and appealed to the Akwa Ibom State government to stop the project.
The House Committee chairman on Niger Delta Development Commission, the state Oil Producing Areas Development Commission, and the ministry of petroleum said the process had destroyed many economic crops and farmlands.
According to him, he had also called on the governor of Akwa Ibom State, Umo Eno “to resist the temptation from any parochial interest group and do the right thing as the man of integrity he has been known for.”
