While inaugurating the factory at Ikot Ekan, Etinan, on Wednesday, Mr Eno said, “I have declared a state of emergency on Ibom Paints with the appointment of a sole administrator, Mr Ime Uwah.
“There will be no more board and board members, but a sole administrator.
“He will run this factory because in the last three months he has produced results, and I have looked at the account with records of profits, and so we will have to continue in that trajectory.
“This is Akwa Ibom’s funds, so we can’t dig a hole and throw it into. In addition to that, this is a legacy and we must sustain it.”
Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State assured that his administration will continue to partner with the Akwa Ibom Investment Corporation (AKICORP) to ensure the success of Ibom Paints and other businesses under their supervision.
He also announced a new pickup truck for the paint industry and ordered all government contractors to patronize Ibom Paints.
