‘I said build hospital, you started with mortuary’ – Gov Eno faults contractor [Video]

A viral video circulating online has captured Akwa Ibom State Governor, Umo Eno, expressing displeasure over the pace and sequence of work on a hospital project in the state.

The footage, shared on Wednesday by Uche Nworah, former Special Adviser on General Duties to the Director-General of the Nigerian Meteorological Agency, shows the governor addressing a contractor during an inspection visit.

In the video, Eno faulted the contractor for allegedly prioritising the construction of a mortuary ahead of other critical hospital facilities.

“I said build a hospital and you started with a mortuary. Don’t say that again,” the governor was heard saying.

The video has since generated reactions on social media
