The Lost Legacy of Ibom e-Library
Once a symbol of innovation and enlightenment, the Ibom e-Library stood tall as a beacon of knowledge in Akwa Ibom State. Built to serve as a hub of learning for all residents, it was envisioned to foster education, research, and creativity in the community. Equipped with modern facilities, internet connectivity, and countless books and resources, the e-library became a haven for students, researchers, and anyone seeking knowledge.
However, during the administration of Governor Udom Emmanuel, the vision for the Ibom e-Library began to waver. Slowly but surely, its doors that were once wide open to the public started closing. The bustling halls grew silent as access became increasingly restricted. Instead of nurturing the minds of Akwa Ibomites, the e-library was repurposed as a private training center. Public use was deprioritized, and its vast resources became unavailable to those it was built to serve.
For years, students stood outside its gates, their aspirations dimmed by locked doors. Researchers who once thrived within its walls were forced to seek knowledge elsewhere. The heart of the e-library—a public treasure—was transformed into a corporate enclave, catering only to specific training programs and organizations.
Today, the Ibom e-Library serves as a painful reminder of what could have been. Its original purpose, to educate and empower the people of Akwa Ibom, has been overshadowed by exclusivity and neglect. The promise of enlightenment has given way to disappointment, leaving the community yearning for the library’s restoration to its rightful place as a sanctuary for all.
