President of the Senate Godswill Akpabio has promised that the government will revive moribund industries so as to create job opportunity for unemployed youths in the country.
Speaking during his visit to the immediate past senator representing Akwa Ibom Northwest, Chris Ekpenyong, Akpabio assured that the Senate will support the President Bola Tinubu administration to resuscitate ailing industries.
”With the way the President has been exercising his mandate in the last 20 days, I am very confident that hitherto moribund and abandoned industries across the country would be given due attention with a view to providing jobs and business opportunities for our teeming youths.
Also speaking, Ekpenyong appreciated the President of the Senate and his colleagues for the visit, saying, “I am a fulfilled and happy man today because the Akwa Ibom North West Senatorial district has produced the number three citizen of this country. Let us put behind our political differences and work for our people and Nigeria.
” I congratulate you on your well-deserved victory. It is a dream come true and I am happy this is happening in my lifetime.”
He called on the government to ensure that industries like the Ajaokuta Steel Company in Kogi State, Oku Iboku Paper Mill in Akwa Ibom State among numerous others are revamped and put into use for national economic growth
