Gov Eno’s Strategy to Propel Akwa Ibom’s Economy to New Heights
Former Etim Ekpo chairman Imeh Paul Afia praised Governor Umo Eno’s bold economic vision. He spoke at Victor Attah International Airport after the governor returned from an investment tour in the UK. Afia highlighted plans to launch international flights and attract investors for the Ibom Deep Seaport. He said this coordinated approach signals a deliberate push for growth in aviation, trade and maritime sectors. He noted that opening the airport to global traffic will boost tourism, trade, internally generated revenue and job creation across multiple industries. Afia described the combined airport and seaport development as a game-changer for Akwa Ibom and the wider South-South region. He urged residents and stakeholders to support the administration’s vision. Continuity of these projects, he said, will consolidate existing gains and position the state for long-term economic expansion.
