Assessing Udom Promise of Projects Continuity: it's a Yes, Yes, Yes!

The overclaimed opinion that governor Udom Emmanuel has failed because he didn't continue the good work of the ex-governor, senator Godswill Akpabio can be analyzed in two perspectives.

Udom may have promised continuity during campaign but hasn't totally continued because no one envisaged the recession that befell the country since the advent of the present administration which likely destabilized his government plans and budgets for those projects. Don't also forget that those are not just 'moi moi' projects; they are mega projects which needed better inflow of resources to complete.

Moreso, the Udom government did not totally discontinue Akpabio's projects. The Uyo-Ikot Ekpene road didn't stop after the exit of Akpabio, so also is the specialist hospital till the management crisis which had nothing to do with government's discontinuation.

What about the Akwa Ibom state International airport, Udom continued - completing of the second runway. Which other project that was started by senator Akpabio that haven't been touched? Is it the drainage system, rural roads, employment, renovations of school blocks, free education etc? These are structures established by the past government which the Udom administration has continued.

To assess Udom Emmanuel government on continuity, it's a yes, yes, yes for me.
