“I know I can not personally reach out to every Itu and Ibiono Ibom indigene with a health need. This is why I intentionally make plans for buses at strategic locations to convey indigenes of the federal constituency to and fro the venue of the medical outreach.”
There will be pick-up points where the buses will be stationed to ease mobility. Indigenes are urged to take advantage of the availability of buses at strategic locations within the federal constituency.
For Itu, buses will be stationed at;
1. Nelson Mandela junction, and
2. Oku Iboku junction.
For Ibiono Ibom, buses will be stationed at;
3. Ikot Okpon junction, and
