Governor Emmanuel stated that the time has come for leaders to look outside the box about how to run the economy, which he said led him to come up with the notion of developing the three gateways of land, air, and sea in Akwa Ibom.
He explained that, in addition to connecting all local government areas with access roads, including neighbouring states, his administration has expanded on his predecessors’ vision of developing the MRO of the Ibom International Airport to allow all aircraft on the African continent to be serviced, maintained, and overhauled in Akwa Ibom.

He added that this is another way his administration is diversifying both the state’ s economy and revenue profile.
