Ibom Seaport and Industrial City

By Joseph Emmanuel,=[i][/i]

Following his re-election for a second term in March, the Akwa Ibom State governor, Udom Emmanuel, unveiled what he called a ‘Completion Agenda’.

According to him, his major target is to sustain the industrialisation and investments policies before the end of his administration in 2023 with a view to birthing the Ibom Industrial City and Ibom Deep Seaport.

The Ibom deep seaport project is part of the Ibom Industrial City development through a public private partnership arrangement.













The deep seaport, although a part of the industrial city, is treated as a separate project. The Ibom deep seaport will be owned by the Federal Government of Nigeria through the Nigeria Ports Authority in partnership with Akwa Ibom State Government and private investors.

On the other hand, the Ibom Industrial City project will be solely owned by Akwa Ibom State Government. Both projects will utilise the state’s unique location to promote industrialisation in the region by developing a modern state-of-the art industrial city which will include a deep sea port. The Ibom Deep Seaport is in line with the Federal Ministry of Transportation, FMoT, plans to augment port capacity in Nigeria and is a key component of Akwa Ibom’s economic empowerment plans

The Ibom deep seaport will occupy 2,565 hectares of land area of the 14,517 hectares available for the industrial city project. The project site is strategically located and accessible through major existing and planned transport infrastructure such as airport, railway lines and federal and state road networks. The IDSP and IIC project site is approximately 36km from the Victor Attah International Airport designed with a runway to carry 747 and 380 series of international airbus cargoes

Please you can share your thoughts and comment concerning the ongoing project.

The udom that used 3 years to finish 1 flyover after rendering all adjoining roads nonmotorable will use 100 years and still not complete this.

it was abandoned, but u know the Niger delta are not in control of their Resources if not we would have live this Nigeria standard and be competing on world standard, and that is why they don't have funds to complete those projects.

but atleast we are seeing it on paper, but u know what the government have different issues to attend to like industrializations and so on.
And if you look at it in most developed countries of the world it is their citizens that build industries to reduce the pressure on government, but in Nigeria no wealthy people what to build industries they are waiting for the government to build, so these government won't be able to construct these infrastructure.
