New trash containers added in many parts of Enugu, but there is still a lot of refuse dumps everywhere, especially in Ninth mile corner.

Impressive panoramic pics of Enugu! You've excelled yourself with these Spyder!

I'm a tree freak fan, and want to see even more trees in Enugu!

devilincarnate: Hope this estate will not end up harbouring criminals.

^^^I don't understand you.....can you explain a bit what you mean?

Nike road.

New market road.

Miliken hills Road, twisting and turning like a snake
What are the stories you were told about this place, I heard an ear full as a child about here? How was your creepy experience passing this road.

Off this cliff is more than a 20 storey fall down a valley, thick jungle vegetation.

^^^I was told a Boa-Constrictor lives in those hills and that it swallowed a soldier whole during the civil war!

Anyone else heard this story?

I heard it, and that the boots of the soldier was sticking out of the boa's mouth when found. Not very impossible considering the heavy bush there.

Yes trees are older than mankind and actually sustain it so we should always give reverence in appreciation of Trees/plants

Hurrah! Nigeria is finally doing things the right way!!!

I am very happy with the method of elevating small transformers on poles and using the small transformers to step up the electricity every few blocks. This is the modern way to evenly spread the load and prevent frequent transformers blow-out from over load! In Europe and many parts of USA, i noticed they hang their transformers between two poles as in the picture, or sometimes hang the little cylindrical transformer on one pole, every few blocks.Some of these transformers are the same size as a big paint bucket! Yet, the entire neighborhood use their A/C without any problems! Elevating the transformers on poles, not only solve the issue of finding land space for them, it also protect them from vandalism and flooding, they are placed just at the right points to boost the electricity around the entire city.

I am glad they are finally rejecting the old NEPA method of having one massive transformer in one street corner for an entire neighborhood, which often cause such massive transformers to over heat and blow up.Putting an entire neighborhood in darkness for months. Not to mention the fact that those who live farthest away from the massive neighborhood transformers always have to contend with perpetual half current.

I hope that is what they are actually planning to do.what becomes of the old ones then??

oilykid: I hope that is what they are actually planning to do.what becomes of the old ones then??

They will stay where they are to support the new ones. Nigeria obviously doesn't have enough transformers to meet the electricity demand. So the old ones can still be used or can also be deployed to places with clusters of industries. They are industrial transformers anyway which are designed to be installed in front of heavy industries or factories to guarantee their power supply.

Mmmm

^^^thats the next street of mine
