The governor of Akwa Ibom State, His excellency Godswill Akpabio turns 50 today, 9th December. It is pertinent to mention a few of what the governor as done that makes him stand out amongst his colleagues; he has transformed the landscape of Akwa Ibom State and tarred over 300 roads, and built five flyovers in just one term in office. He has turned Uyo (once a rural town) into one of the most beautiful cities in Nigeria. Also is the completion of the airport he met at site-clearing level, the completion of Ibom Power Plant, the ongoing construction of the Tropicana Entertainment Centre, 20th Anniversary Specialist Hospital (also on-going), two underground pipe-jacking systems (the first of their kind in Africa), the E-Library (the first of its kind in West Africa), execution of over 4,000 inter-ministerial projects,to mention a few.
