Enugu Govt. Approves Contract for Rehabilitation of 9th Mile, Opi-Obollo Afor FG Roads

...Upgrades IMT to degree-awarding institution

The Enugu State Executive Council has approved the award of contract for the rehabilitation of 18.5km federal government road along Opi-Obollo Afor, and additional works at Amalla and 9th Mile internal roads from Ekochin Junction-Mechanic Village junction, measuring 2.4km.

The contract was awarded to Reynolds Construction Company (RCC Nig Ltd) at the cost of N1,356,587,804.56k (One Billion, Three Hundred and Fifty Six Million, Eighty Hundred and Four Thousand, Eighty Six Kobo).

Briefing the press at the Government House, Enugu, after the council meeting, the Commissioner for Information, Dr. Godwin Udeuhele, said that the award of the contract was consistent with the state government’s commitment towards improving the lives of the people by creating enabling environment for safe and smooth transportation in the state, especially during the forthcoming Yuletide.

He stated the council also approved the flag-off ceremonies at the various sites for the 25 road projects as well as buildings and water projects in the 17 Local Government Areas of the state, scheduled to hold on October 15.

The council also approved the upgrade of the Institute of Management and Technology (IMT) Enugu, to a degree-awarding institution in order to meet the educational, socio-political and economic needs of the State.

“In line with this decision,” the commissioner explained that “the council has directed the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Miletus Eze to draft a bill to be forwarded to the Enugu State House of Assembly for necessary action."

Udeuhele also noted that the council equally approved the amendment of Section 315 of the Criminal Code, pointing out that in addition to the regular punishment of imprisonment as provided in the extant law, the relevant section would include demolition of buildings where victims of kidnapping were held captive in order to serve as a deterrent to prospective perpetrators.

In an effort to enhance the aesthetic outlook of the capital city and reposition it for greater heights, the commissioner said that the council also approved the relocation of the Enugu State Transport Company (ENTRACO) to a new site that would be provided for it in due course.

Nice! Nice! Nice!

Nice one. Meaning u don't have to wait for FG before making the roads motorable for ur people

Amazing decision..

I hope Mr Peter Obi would lobby Obiano to start something on Umunya before the cock cries in November & December.

Please include Fayose method for handling FG herdsmen. If your people are not alive, who will ply the roads?

good news

This is a very fresh move by the Governor!

He made Rangers won the trophy!

He is a very Good Governor!

States should be enabled to take full responsibility of their resources and contribute less to the federation. In other words, we should restructure to full regionalism.

No p

Way to go. Stop waiting for the FG.
Same thing Ambode has been doing.

Ok

Good news

The people's choice.

Igbos are handling their federal roads themselves...the same way we built the Owerri airport without a penny from the useless federal government.

now dat's what governance is all about


I love u Gburus


dats my Governor
#who will love my country

Good news from the Governor but very bad from the FG. All other roads in other parts of the country were penciled down for RECONSTRUCTION but the only two they manage to include from the southeast in the budget was instead penciled down for REHABILITATION. This is the reason why some youths are agitating for secession.
ALL STATE ROADS IN ANAMBRA ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL AND IN PERFECT CONDITION ONLY TO BE CONTAMINATED BY SO CALLED FG ROADS.
