You will recall that sometime ago, floods destroyed homes in the Agwagune community that was located near the bank of the Cross River.

Following the development, the federal government embarked on a resettlement drive to alleviate the poverty of the indigenes.

Sources say the construction of the 300 housing units embarked upon by the federal government, has almost been completed.

The resettlement project is jointly being handled by the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and the Cross River State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA).

In his response, the Director-General, Cross River State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA), Mr. Vincent Aquah gave his word that the project will not exceed its completion date.
