The Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) has officially commended the Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, for his administration’s forward-thinking approach to governance, specifically highlighting the successful rollout of the Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) transport initiative and the ongoing construction of a state-of-the-art 350-bed hospital. During a recent oversight visit to project sites, leadership from various political parties under the IPAC umbrella expressed their satisfaction with the governor’s dedication to alleviating the economic burden on citizens through the introduction of CNG-powered buses, which significantly reduce transport fares while simultaneously promoting environmental sustainability.
The council lauded the initiative as a pragmatic solution to the rising cost of fuel, noting that it demonstrates a commitment to the welfare of the common man and aligns with national goals for energy transition. Furthermore, the IPAC delegation lauded the governor for prioritizing the 350-bed hospital project, emphasizing that the medical facility is a vital intervention that will drastically improve healthcare accessibility, reduce the necessity for medical tourism, and provide a world-class environment for specialized treatment within the state. By focusing on these two critical sectors—transportation and healthcare—Governor Eno has effectively balanced immediate economic relief with long-term infrastructure development. The council encouraged the governor to maintain this momentum, describing these projects as hallmarks of inclusive governance that transcend partisan interests for the greater good of Akwa Ibom residents, and reaffirmed their commitment to supporting policies that foster peace, unity, and sustainable growth across the state
