by The member representing Obudu/Bekwarra/Obanliku federal constituency, Hon Peter Akpanke has described as unfortunate the poor state of work done on the Ikom-Obudu highway.
The lawmaker made the remarks during an on the spot assessment of work done on highway as part of the activities for the three days need assessment/town hall meeting across the three Local Governments that made up the federal constituency.
Speaking to journalists, Akpanke noted that “It is disgusting to see this kind of work being done. The work is abandoned. It is already raining season, commuters find it very difficult to ply the road. This road leads to my community.
“I will ensure that the right thing is done. I will write to the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Works, to feed me with details on the award of contract and also to find out the slow pace of work despite payment of funds to the contractors ”
The contract was awarded to Leophina Works Limited, as at the time of filing this report, efforts to Leophina to comment on the state of work done was futile.
