Its Chairman in Akwa Ibom State, Franklin Isong, stated this while fielding questions from journalists in Uyo yesterday, saying the call became necessary as the National Assembly had failed to make adequate budgetary provision for the highway since the contract for its reconstruction was awarded. x
He said the road had been politicised and had become a death trap, wondering why federal roads in Akwa Ibom State were left in such a state of dilapidation and neglect, even as the state was contributing the highest amount to the Federation’s Account.

The Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), yesterday, said Governor Hope Uzodimma had disappointed the Ndigbo for inviting the military to Orlu community in Imo State.
The Civil Liberties Organisation (CLO) in the South-East also chided the governor for the approval of military operations in Orlu, stressing that his action was a clear indication of a leader “who doesn’t feel the pulse of his people to know their feelings and needs.”
Uzodimma had on Tuesday in Abuja said that his decision to invite the military to quell the crisis in Orlu was to avert a repeat of the scenario that played out during the recent #ENDSARS protests.
