There's one thing I can agree totally with you. Akwa Ibom has the best road network in the country; though they find it very difficult to keep their roads clean |

rottennaija: The only reason akwa ibom has not taken over shitty eco is because of shallow and petty politics. Akpabio wanted to start of seaport but Jonathan lost. So That Seaport Never Saw The Light Of day. Even as apapa is managing conjestion. Greedy Yoloba bleeps dont share well. Now dangote is building refinery in the same eco. But Lagos don't have a dime oil. Yet they are hosting such huge platform to the detriment of akwa ibom the highest oil producing state. This is why they wanted a hard line bubu to consolidate on the post civil war aliance between yoloba and hanusa. How they do what they want now. 5 Likes |

My problem with most Nlders is that they're not properly informed on what constitutes development and unfortunately categorically make misguided statements on the topic. A proper infrastructure which goes beyond some roads in the capital city and main areas of other towns (which some erroneously call cities), investment into human resources development and lower taxes will propel the state to move above Rivers state. In summary, Akwa Ibom has the potentials to surpass Rivers due to it being more safer and her residents non-bellicose nature. Unfortunately, I don't see this happening in this administration which prefers to plunder scarce funds on what doesn't constitute as developmental initiatives. |

Based on your pictures there hasn't been much development in Akwaibom aside roads. There isn't complimentary private sector investment in real estate, hospitality and manufacturing industry. Government owned ones are bound to fail in the long run. 1 Like |

It's a pity that Akpabio failed to implement policies that would have enticed lots of investment,. both local and foreign. He should have set up an EPZ or an industrial estate with it's own independent 24 hour supply. All one has to do is take a look at how an EPZ changed the fortunes of Mauritius which has a population of less than 2million. 6 Likes |

chloride6: What does serenity have to do with this. If you're talking about Akwa Ibom overtaking Rivers in relevance, then you better be talking economic opportunities. Insecurity is a result of multiple issues which can be addressed with serious political will. Eg It took Amaechi less than 6months to reduce drastically militancy and kidnapping during his tenure. Rivers state has atleast 25-30yrs headstart over Aks and will always be head and shoulder over Akwa Ibom. Anyone who is realistic will admit to this. 1 Like |

I am working in Rivers and doing my masters program in Akwa Ibom. Theres is no need to compare the two because in the next 1m years Rivers will be ahead But the write up seems to cause disharmony between the two states who are doing wonderfully well in terms of infrastructures Governor Wike spent more than two months commissioning projects in 2018 ; which state of the federation did that ? Rivers has 11 flyover Bridges while Akwa Ibom has only 4. Governor Wike has announced the construction of extra 3 flyovers The Whole of Uyo is like ONELGA in Rivers 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Development has two major components: (1)Human Resource Development and (2) Industrialization /infrastructure. The above two factors determines other key economic yardsticks like GDP, and Unemployment Rate. Akwaibom is growing but yet to develop. It will still take reasonable years for Akwaibom to edge out the Garden City. 3 Likes |
