Over 10 landlords on Akpan Eton Street, in Uyo Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, including tenants have fled their homes, following the menace of deep gully encroaching on their doorsteps.

The residents, in a, save our souls letter made available to our correspondent in Uyo on Tuesday, appealed to Governor Udom Emmanuel to extend his ongoing intervention gestures along Ikpa Road to the area.

The residents lamented that repeated calls for help from previous administrations could not yield any result. According to the letter which was signed by Titus Jerome Udoh and Hon Ekong Archibong Asuquo, the people lamented that while many buildings had already been swallowed up by the gully, many others were at the verge of caving in.

“We want to use this medium to humbly appeal that you please save our souls from a gully erosion which is eaten deep into our buildings, some of which had already caved in” “Your Excellency, some of us are retired Civil Servants with children and our only asset is our house, now faced with threat of being washed off at every rainy moment. You can imagine what life has become for some of us”.
