Industrialization ‘No Be For Mouth’ Gov Udom Emmanuel Commissions Plastic Industry

Plastic industries in Akwa Ibom

Someone promised Akwa Ibom 31 Industries during his reelection campaigns (one in each of the 31 LGAs) but ended up neither building nor facilitating the berthing of one industry.

To score cheap political points he and his cohorts go about blackmailing a performer (Governor Emmanuel) who has given the state over 11 industries in 3 years, isn’t that a lamentable irony?

For the records, Governor Udom Emmanuel today inaugurated AKEES Industrial Park in Itam, Itu Local Govt. Area.

The Industrial Estate houses Pencil Factory, Plastic Factory, Toothpick Factory, Bamboo Pulp, Hydro Form Blocks Moulding Factory, Composite Factory, a World Class Standard Show Room and artisan centre.
This is how to bring back the good old days.
