Governor Udom Emmanuel has kept to his promise as construction has begun on the first ever Olympic-sized swimming pool in Akwa Ibom state.

The sporting facility geared towards encouraging athletes in the state to excel in swimming exercises, is located at the Uyo Township stadium, currently undergoing remodeling.

Construction work began on Saturday morning with the excavation of the entire swimming pool perimeter and continued into Sunday. Heavy equipments and engineers were on site to ensure a speedy execution of the project.

The Commissioner for Youths and Sports, Sir Monday Uko who was on site on both days said he was carrying out the directive of Governor Udom Emmanuel who instructed that the swimming pool and the Uyo Township Stadium remodeling exercise be completed urgently.

According to Sir Monday Uko, the 13th biennial Police Games will be held in Akwa Ibom State from 20th November, 2022 and the pool is expected to be ready for the games as engineers are working to deliver a standard facility.

The construction engineers who hail from Akwa Ibom gave an overview of the specifications of the facilities to be constructed and expressed satisfaction at the level of cooperation and support provided them by the government for the completion of the project.

Engr. Bassey who spoke on behalf of other engineers said, “for a complete construction of a swimming pool, the electrical, structural, and mechanical engineers will be present for the work to be professionally handled.

The accepted standard for an Olympic-sized swimming pool is 50 meters by 25 meters. As engineers, we have come in, every necessary test will be done right from the soil to the concrete to the steel. The design is out and it is going to be wonderful when it is finished.

“Now, we will have to incorporate other areas of recreation and buildings that will help the facility to work very well.

“This directive comes from His Excellency through my boss, and I assure you, it will be delivered as all hands will be on deck.”
