Former President Goodluck Jonathan is billed to commission the 1-kilometre Afi-Uko Nteghe Uda Bridge on Etebi-Enwang Road in Akwa Ibom State on Monday.
The bridge, in Mbo LGA, which was at 35 per cent stage when it was taken over by the administration of Gov Udom Emmanuel, is said to be the fourth longest bridge in Nigeria.
