The Watchdog for Good Governance, WFGG, has scored the member representing Ikom/Boki Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. Victor Abang Bisong, high on constituency projects and interventions across the 22 wards of Ikom and Boki Local Government Areas.
The group also pledged massive support for Abang’s bid for a second term, saying his record of constituency development deserves renewed backing.
Speaking on the assessment, WFGG spokesman, Comrade Justine Agbor, said the group’s rating was based on Abang’s 2026 scorecard, verified projects and interventions across the constituency.
According to Agbor, the interventions span education, roads, healthcare, water supply, electricity, telecommunications, agriculture, sports and human capital development.
In education, WFGG cited the renovation of more than 12 primary schools and construction of classroom blocks at Etikpe, Alesi, Bekpor Irruan, Lutheran Primary School in Panya and Ubong. It also listed the construction and equipping of a secondary school facility at Etikpe, Ikom.

Other interventions mentioned include the Biajua, Danare, Ekumba Hill, Arongba, Osokom Farm, Abo Emeh, Agbokim and Mgbabor roads, alongside advocacy for the Ikom, Obudu Federal Highway.
Agbor said between 32 and 35 rural communities had regained telecommunications connectivity through interventions attributed to Abang, with at least 25 of the projects independently verified by the group.
In healthcare, WFGG cited the provision of medical equipment to Abo Ebam Health Centre, medical outreach in Nde, rehabilitation of boreholes and health facilities, solar power support, advocacy for a Federal Medical Centre in Boki and efforts towards completing the NDDC Specialist Hospital in Ikom.

It further claimed that more than 4,000 constituents had benefited from human capital development programmes, including grants, educational support, skills training, disability empowerment initiatives, women and youth programmes and motorcycle distribution.
On legislation, WFGG said Abang had sponsored or pursued bills seeking the establishment of a Federal College of Agriculture and Forestry in Okundi, Federal Medical Centre in Boki, Federal College of Education (Technical) in Ikom and an Okwangwo National Park Unit.
The group also cited motions concerning the Nigeria Cameroon boundary, alleged incursions into Okwa, elephant attacks in eastern Boki, dredging of the Calabar Seaport and the Odukpani Junction, Ikot Ekpene Road.
Agbor said the assessment reflected what he described as Abang’s sustained focus on constituency development, adding that several projects had appeared in successive federal budgets and received confirmation from stakeholders.
He said WFGG had concluded plans for massive mobilisation in support of Abang’s re-election, declaring that “second term is not negotiable.”
