"A lot of them have shown interest in the completion and running of the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) facility at the Victor Attah International Airport.
Etteh, who also hinted that year 2020 has lots of prospects for Akwa Ibom, said "the summit also afforded the Governor the opportunity to meet with the Marriott Group vice president for Sub-Sahara Africa, Mr Ibrahim Barghout, to finalize arrangement for the smooth opening of the Four-Point by Sheraton, Ikot Ekpene.

He explained that "the Udom Emmanuel administration recognizes aviation as a strategic income stream and as such is doing its best to take advantage of it.
