No, I don't know Graceland estates, and Golf course estate is not around Nkwoagu Udi but in Enugu GRA.

There's a planned estate around Nkwoagu Udi, but not much is happening there. I passed there today and its still bushy.

Centenary city does not own these set of buildings at the entrance road of Centenary city. Just like the new Jedidiah estate at the entrance road of Centenary city isn't owned by them. These are estates by another company.

Centenary property starts from the point where they situated their gate. Hopefully, they will start planting flowers and trees along that road now. it helps to appreciate the value of the land as well as beautify the environment.

Enugu state government should not let people cut down those surrounding forests on miliken road to build houses...

kmariko:
Spyder since you are on "ground" so to speak....how about gathering a group of your business friends and talk to the state government about a

"Milliken Hill marathon"...with a cash prize from corporate sponsors like NBL

That will help promote tourism in the city...

Enugu Clean Team Project at work for a cleaner and healthier Enugu State.

This is how to clean gutters!

Not what we see where people scope thing out of the gutter and dump it on the street. Then leave it there and walk away for weeks. Within the time, rain fall washes everything back into the gutter and makes the hitherto clean streets to become another terrible piggery.

I just love Enugu Governor for doing things decently. I wish others will learn from him that anything worth doing, is worth doing well.

It appears obvious that this company does not have the funds to execute this project out of their own money and sell the homes to the public as they originally envisaged.

I think what they need to do now is to sell the land to interested members of the public and have an agreement on the type of building for each area of the estate. In this way, private individuals can be building the structures and the company will use the money they have to complete the roads, electricity, piped water and other infrastructure for the estate.

I don't think they can financially build all the homes required and sell. They need help in building the homes and they can provide infrastructure needed in the estate. They can recoup some of the money for infrastructure through the cost of the land.

They sell the plots inside the proposed city to people just that u have to stick to a particular pattern they will give u and it seems they have different pattern of buildings.

We have been begging them to use that method.

Simply sell the plot of land to interested people and tell them the type of building to have on each street. The buildings don't have to look exactly alike, but will be uniform. Such as they are all duplexes or they are all bungalows or they all have red brick walls or short brick fences etc.

They don't need to build it themselves, they only need to provide roads, gutters, street lights, trees along each street and enforce standards & uniformity according to the original plan.

You should be begging gburugburu not to cut down the trees and start another estate there,the governor is unofficially an estate agent and also into land grabbing big time.

Would have made more sense if they scooped the dirt directly into low, purpose-built trucks instead of into all those bin-liners! Would be cheaper too!

Sprumbabafather:


sorry people, every land from new market axis up till the whole valley till Ngwo villages around milliken hills has been mapped out and are either sold or on the market.
you think he's building the road because he loves the area? He is promoting his market.

1. Power plants especially Gas and/or Coal and

2. Regional railway links are what the regional government should find Chinese financiers.

For a Total length of <1,000KM, to link key SE cities to the SS cities, this is a highly bankable venture for any investor.

These are the only projects that will give the region any hope of creating jobs within the region and cheaply moving goods and services from point A to point B.

Every other thing is secondary to these two major things that must happen. A lot has been said about this in numerous threads. I wonder why it has not started.https://www.nairaland.com/3780758/ohanaeze-sets-up-committee-design

Cjrane2:


Therefore the plan should be for a 5 years development plan for Regional railway.
The 3 steps are.

1. The SE Governors and SS Governors should secure permission from FG to build the regional railway and float a company "Eastern Corridor Railways Corporation (ECRC)"

2. Every benefiting state will invest 1% of their budget as Equity into the company to take care on initial takeoff This is later converted to shares in the company for the respective states.

3. Get Foreign companies to bid as foreign Technical partners to do the actual construction on a PPP arrangement and 100 Year BOT (Build-Operate_Transfer)

These three steps will ensure the project is actualized and it will greatly facilitate economic activities in both zones. Imagine travelling from Calabar to Onitsha or Port Harcourt on an air-conditioned train and get there in 2-3 hours? Or bringing your goods from Afikpo to Port-Harcourt. Then do your business and return to Calabar or Afikpo without Police harassment and bad roads?
