Myluv1: [b]A lot of demolitions will have to occur and a lot of people will lose their properties in order to get Awka planned. This will naturally lead to a lot of outrage, law suits and corrupt favoritism by officials who will be pressured or bribed to spare some buildings. In the end, all the energy will be spent in courts and the project will eventually stall from a lot of problems. One often wonders if these demolitions and loss of property is even necessary at all, considering that a brand new city can be built around the greenwood estate and just leave the old Awka alone as the historic district. We can truly plan the New Awka city using housing estates block by block as shown in the first map called "Extensions". The government simply needs to conceive a "Ring road system" to open up new areas for well planned residential or industrial estates to develop simultaneously inside the New Awka city. Again, notice that in the first map, the streets inside each "residential estate or extension" isn't tarred yet, but the building pattern obviously reveal the entire area had been planned.Thus, the city can continue to develop for hundreds of years following the same organized pattern of expansion. To launch the new city, the government simply built a dual carriage 'ring road system' which has roundabouts at every intersection to open up the entire virgin area. We should simply replicate the first map above on the empty land in the second map labelled New Awka Capital city and we would have been on our way towards building a well planned and modern Awka capital city.[/b] 3 Likes

People will be dully compensated in the event of demolition to pave way for city expansion. The ongoing Greenwood city will serve as a hood for the rich and super rich and other high-end/upscale developments. Issue of litigation can never arise because government will make sure that such owners receive their compensation but if they do not then government will go ahead with the demolition because no individual can hold a government to ransom. At the end it will be a win-win for our dear state as the entire city will be a world class one. Already real estate development in the city is topnotch by individual developers and government estates alike. GOD Bless Omambala.. 3 Likes |

Agreed, many toes will be stepped on to get the development plan right, but it is a necessary evil. No one is guaranteeing it will go down smoothly, I doubt if it has ever been peacefully done anywhere. El Rufai pulled things down to get Abuja to its present status. Rivers state governor did same as well. So, I don't see why an error should not be rectified to get the city in good shape. Problems have always been with people not possessing necessary legal documents of their lands and properties so as to get compensated. Also not forgetting money-miss-roads that put up illegal structures, they will find it hard to be compensated and then resort to fighting dirty... but that shouldn't faze the govt. as long as it's determined. 2 Likes |

Obiano boosts Mission Schools in Anambra with N1.9bn Governor Willie Obiano has continued to give shape and form to the promise of CONTINUITY which he made to Ndi Anambra during his gubernatorial campaign days as following the precedent set by his predecessor, he doled out a total of N1.9 billion, Friday, to Mission Schools in the state for the 2014 Universal Basic Education projects. The ceremony which took place at the Women Development Center, Awka attracted the leaders of the two dominant churches in the state – the Catholic Church and the Anglican Church who mobilized members of their congregations en-masse to grace the occasion. Out of the total sum, N433 million was given to the Catholic mission and N300 to the Church of Nigeria Anglican Communion while N1.082 billion is in the custody of Anambra State Universal Basic Education Board for funding public primary and junior secondary education. Governor Obiano said the fund allocated to each mission was based on the number of schools that government had returned to them. He confirmed that funds released to the Church by his predecessor were judiciously utilized which encouraged his administration to sustain the policy. screenshot windows The governor further explained that the fund would be used for the provision of infrastructure and furniture in the benefitting schools and restated his government’s commitment to delivering functional education, adding that there were already considerations on how to accommodate Pentecostal schools. Governor Obiano also disclosed that the state government had started paying twenty percent of basic salary to teachers in the rural areas and three thousand naira to teachers that handle core subjects. He announced that physically challenged persons and junior students of technical schools are now on state government scholarship. He stated that the state government has upgraded infrastructure at the school for physically challenged persons at Isulo; provided internet facility in schools; is building perimeter fencing in boarding schools and training marshals to assist in maintaining security in schools.[b][/b] The Commissioner for Education, Professor Kate Omenugha said the fund beneficiaries had secured approved work plan and that the utilization would be subject to monitoring and evaluation processes. how do you print screen Most Reverend Christian Efobi, Archbishop, Province on the Niger, described the emergence of Governor Obiano as God’s answer to the prayer for sustenance of good governance in the state, noting that the implementation of his pillars of development would make Anambra a model state. Catholic Archbishop of Onitsha, Most Reverend Valerian Okeke represented by Monsignor Basil Onwuasomba said the Governor’s performance was indicative of his resolve to make a difference in the lives of the people. 7 Likes

Yeske2: It isn't a competition. Their roles differ... Obi did the dirty and harder part of the job for Obiano. Even Obi had said numerous times he prays for a successor who will do more than him. As soon as Obiano came into the race, Obi confidently tipped him to take Anambra farther than he (Obi) did. Willie's part is to set the state on a roller coaster, and he is on track. 5 Likes |

On Saturday, November 1, the main hall of the Women Development Centre, Awka, Anambra State, was filled to capacity with special guests who had come from all walks of life to felicitate with Chinedu Ubachukwu, winner of Gulder Ultimate Search 11. It was in fulfilment of the pledge by the Council of Elders who informed the GUS 11 winner, through Chidi Mokeme, the Anchor man, that he would be rewarded with lavish gifts and a party fit only for royalty, would be held in his honour. In attendance at the Reveal Party were the Executive Governor of Anambra State, His Excellency Chief Willie Obiano and other high ranking officials of the state including the Chief of Staff, Prof. Joe Asike, several commissioners, advisers and senior special assistants. Also in attendance were two high ranking traditional rulers: Eze Christopher Nwabunwanne Idigo IV, the Ogalagidi and Igwe of Aguleri and His Royal Majesty (HRM), Eze Chukwuemeka Eri (JP), Ezeora the 34th and Eze Aka ji Ofor Igbo. The traditional rulers were accompanied by their cabinet members. The Nigerian Breweries Plc. delegation comprised Walter Drenth, Marketing Director, Kufre Ekanem, Corporate Affairs Adviser and Emmanuel Agu, Marketing Manager – Gulder, Legend and Life, among others. The show kicked off with a dance dramatization of the Gulder Ultimate Search 11 backstory by The Glorious Dawn, a drama troupe. At the tail end of the drama performance a figure that adorned a red cloak, bearing semblance to an emissary of the Council of Elders, approached the stage. His appearance aroused the curiosity of the audience. The figure let go of the cloak and it turned out to be Okey Bakassi, the event’s compere and his grand entry like an emissary of the Council of Elders thrilled the crowd. The audience were also entertained by a video which chronicled the Gulder Ultimate Search 11 experience including the rib-cracking and exciting moments, periods of tasks and struggles, bouts of emotions and ultimately the discovery of the General’s Helmet by Chinedu Ubachukwu, the winner. Walter Drenth, Marketing Director, Nigerian Breweries Plc., extended his special gratitude to the state governor for his warm embrace and support for the programme. According to him: “His Excellency and the good people of Anambra State ensured that Gulder Ultimate Search 11, turned out to be the best reality show that the Nigerian people have ever seen.”
