The people of Eku near New Ndebeji Community in Akamkpa Local Government Area (LGA) of Cross River State are now happy as their transit travails have been alleviated with the Governorship Candidate of the People Democratic Party (PDP) and Senator representing Cross River Central Senatorial District, Sen Prof Sandy Ojang Onor who donated the sum of Three Million Naira (#3,000,000.00) for the construction of a passage way to ease movement on the broken bridge in the area.

Senator Onor made the donation on Tuesday, November 8, 2022 in Calabar when the Committee saddled with the responsibility to create a safe passage way paid a courtesy call on the Governorship Candidate.

Making the donation on behalf of Sen Onor, Ntufam Dr Omang Ntui admonished the committee to make judicious use of the resources in order to achieve timely result considering the stalled human and vehicular movement in and out of the community.

Responding on behalf of the group, the elated Chairman of the Committee and Village Head of Akoh, Ntufam ASU Clement said: “We have never had someone like him. Today, we ‘re grateful that our own son, Senator Sandy Onor heard our cry and came in timely to intervene and assist us. We thank him so much.”

Recall that Sen Sandy Onor was the first public office holder to visit the stranded communities and motorist, when the bridge collapsed and had promised to engage and facilitate more allocation for the construction of the road; an improvement of the previous budgetary provision he had facilitated.
