Hi. Thanks for sharing the pic of the proposed flyover design. Does anyone have the picture of the Aroma one. I have seen that of Kwata and Amawbia online but never Aroma flyover

Schematics:
The flyovers in Awka are of complex design..designed to suit the already link roads and not just to flyover the city. Just take a look at this one at Amawbia junction. The design was such that it can fit in on the road network and ease traffic.

Below is how the entire place will look like when completed..

Abagworo:


Lux fiat! The Europeans did some good job.

You have been warned to stop commenting on this thread you cancer. This is my last warning to you. Go and face your useless and ordinary state. You are not needed here, your state thread needs you more. Stop or your state thread will suffer for your stupid1ty. Stop because we have nothing in common with you and wherever you come from. Leave us, it is not by force to be nwanne. Nuff said!

Every open and public spaces in Anambra are being grassed and landscaped to a world class standard. They started from Headbride to Upper-Iweka now Zik's Junction and DMGS junction. They are continuing in Awka with the flyovers and six lanes superhighways and all parts of the state.

cjrane:
The DMGS Zik's roundabout in the picture above is being upgraded.

One hopes colorful flowers will be used and water fountain included in the design.

Another section of the great CKC..`

The school is cool fitted with internet connectivity and other world class facilities..

Some CKC pics from their website.

I will get the renders of the Aroma flyover/tunnel..

Yes, QRC is on the same Oguta road, just located closer to the Upper Iweka end of the road.
The picture of a roundabout with flowers and sprinklers is not Zik's roundabout. That is a roundabout in Uyo, but i posted it to illustrate that Zik's roundabout should have flowers and water fountain. I hope Zik's roundabout eventually looks better than that roundabout i posted .Perhaps what i meant was a roundabout with water fountain around Zik's statue, grass and lots of flowers around like here.

Some renovation work is going on at Zik's roundabout. Hopefully, it comes out as a piece of high quality work. I heard Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe was particularly fond of that roundabout and his statue in the center of it when he was alive. Really it's a roundabout at the heart of Onitsha town.

I hope they do a good job to transform the roundabout into a notable roundabout worth Zik's statue.... most importantly, NO advertisement sign boards should be erected inside the Zik's roundabout!

Why are u posting Enugu pics on Anambra thread? Why?

What building is this in Awka?

clearly you have never been to Awka and perhaps nnewi too but you are always the one to tell us what is happening in the state. Who did well and who did not. Interesting! Anyone who has been to Awka should know that very old building near govt house.

with the vibe I'm getting here Chris Ngige is returning for senate. hehehe

Charlesnerd:
Honestly Dengram hasnt changed much.I am not advocating a wholesale change of the architecture - of course that is an integral part of her history.

But looking at the plan view,you can still see that the old "4 block" looks much the same,though with the roof missing this time. Even the adjoining extension still looks much unchanged and the teachers' quarters is still easily recognizable. I can spot all the coconut trees and it looks certaint that no new one has been planted for years. Even the red sands have not given way for something more befitting.

Much more can obviously be done...

^^^I believe the CKC old boys are more proactive and passionate about their school than Dengram old boys.....i could be wrong though!

Ilovenigeria:

Sorry, I lost my parents on a new year.

Sorry for the lost dear.

IGBOSON1:

I am tempted to agree with you because CKC has always looked much better aesthetically . In terms of passion and alumni participation, dengram has always had a strong alumni network ,but not much of that positive energy has been channeled towards rebuilding the school for several decades.

Dude,
You are a very funny character. I know the building is on the left side of the express when you are driving to Enugu. I believe it was burnt down by your mentor Ngige in 2006 saga with Chris Ubah. I only asked what the building is being used for because i have not entered they building.Besides, that building IS NOT CLOSE TO AWKA GOVERNMENT HOUSE! That shows that you don't know where the governor lives in Awka. Yet, you claim to be from Anambra!

Show us the pictures you promised to get of Uga or Awka. Chino wanted to meet you for a drink, you kept dodging him!
Who knows if you are from Kogi state, masquerading to be from Anambra?

[b]2015: Why All Eyes are on Governor Obiano
By Ngwu Nweze (shareadrink@gmail.com)
Looking at rising profile of Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State, one cannot but marvel at the aptness of the Igbo saying that when a child washes his hands clean, he joins his elders at the dinner table. It is very much in evidence that in less than nine months, Chief Obiano has made a fast job of washing his hands and now sits comfortably at dinner with the elders of the clan.
What may never stop fascinating most people might be perhaps, how someone who was dismissed as a political jellyfish, a stooge of the erstwhile governor he succeeded and a free-falling rookie barely a year ago could have made such a swift transition to substance and reckoning. Nothing perhaps reminds us of the aphorism – never judge a book by its cover, as compellingly as this.
In what seems to be the race of his life, Chief Willie Obiano practically raced through his first nine months in office and left naysayers gasping on his trail with astounding results. It is not certain whether, he felt stung into action by the condescension from some people who thought he would be submerged by the enormity of his office or not, but from his very first day in office, Obiano had cut the image of a man who had set a performance test for himself. It was so easy for people to see that he was hell-bent on making his own myth from the priorities he set for himself. His single-minded pursuit of a secure and safe Anambra began as an obsession and then blossomed into an article of faith. Anyone who is familiar with South Eastern Nigeria would know that if there was ever a challenge that had defied all solutions across the ages, it was the menace of criminals in Onitsha and its surrounding towns and villages. Until recently, crime in Onitsha had grown like a tumour over time; absorbing the nourishment of its environment and gaining the absolute surrender of its victim. It was as though any administration could build roads, schools, hospitals and even factories but turn a blind eye to the rampant kidnapping and violent armed robbery in the state and still win the applause of the people.
It speaks of his remarkable courage that once he took over the reins of leadership, Willie Obiano decided to go head-on against the deep-seated criminal syndicates in Anambra State. I remember a brief conversation I had with Nwa Jesus, a dreaded kidnapper who was picked up by Obiano’s Operation Kpochapu in the early days of the crackdown against criminals in Anambra State. The self-confessed kidnapper told me that he and his gang members regarded their illicit operations as a full blown business and ran their organization like a firm. Members made equity contributions to the business, bought official vehicles and always kept faith with their code of conduct. Nwa Jesus offers a ray of insight into how well organized the underworld community was in Anambra State and the potent threat they presented to the society. But Obiano made a meal of this threat and wrenched freedom off the grip of these ghouls for Ndi Anambra.
So, when on Christmas Eve, the fireworks sent a thousand splendid suns flying into the night skies of Upper Iweka, Obiano was simply demonstrating his conquest of the underworld in South Eastern Nigeria. After subduing crime in the State, Obiano took a triumphant ride in the night to Upper Iweka to hoist the flag of freedom, symbolized by the spiraling lights of the fireworks. Indeed, his conquest is total. In winning the war against crime, he also won over the affection and trust of the investment community who saw in his passionate drive the possibilities of finally exploiting the huge markets in South East Nigeria. The immediate evidence is the torrent of MoUs signed by the government and investors in the last few months.
With the arrival of the New Year, Obiano’s first nine months ended on a high, with the rising flyovers in Arroma, Kwata and Amawbia Junctions in Awka and the emerging six-lane stretch of road that slices through the capital. Interestingly, it may not be totally out of place to say that for the first time in history we have a governor who seems to have left a legacy in less than one year in office.
As the New Year spreads itself out before us, what seems as clear as daylight is the fact that this may well be Governor Willie Obiano’s defining year; his finest hour. Having established himself as his own man in so short a time and earned the respect and adulation of Ndi Anambra, all eyes are on him to break fresh grounds this year. Being an election year, 2015 provides Obiano his greatest test as a politician. After winning the confidence of the party leadership, culminating in his emergence as the BoT Chair and National Leader, Governor Obiano is expected to show that he is indeed in charge. He is expected to galvanize APGA into a formidable political force and sweep a reasonable number of the elective posts in the coming elections. Thankfully, his leadership has continued to inspire hope in the ranks of the party. APGA has grown exponentially since he took over, attracting quality Nigerians and showing an extraordinary appetite for a territorial spread.
This is also the year when Obiano must prove that his exploits in securing the lives and property of Ndi Anambra were not happenstance. Happily, he gave a glimpse into his intentions in this regard when in his New Year Message, he assured that – “Our investment in security shall be more robust this year as we intend to re-invigorate and refocus the security network in the state to ensure a rapid transition to crime detection and prevention. We shall continue to maintain a zero tolerance of crime in Anambra State.” Obiano is also mindful of the imperatives of moving the avalanche of MoUs signed last year from mere documents to physical investments. He most certainly had that in mind when he again declared in his New Year address that his intention was to increase current capacity in all sectors and ensure that all MoUs are fully implemented.
Being a financial expert, Governor Obiano has already pre-figured what ought to be done in response to falling oil prices. His New Year message makes a case for a robust Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) as an alternative income window that must be fully exploited to offer the state enough fiscal headroom in the New Year. The erstwhile banker could see the enormous combined promises of Onitsha, Nnewi, Awka, Ekwulobia, Umunze, Nkpor and Ogbunike among others as revenue generating centers. It is his call to figure out creative ways to boost his revenue drive while maintaining an endearing presence in the hearts of the people.
For some people though, one of the greatest efforts that Governor Obiano must make in the New Year is in the aspect of pulling the levers of ethical re-orientation and establishing a new socio-cultural order in Anambra State. This is not only imperative; it is what the people expect of him. The general belief is that if Obiano could “wipe” out violent crime in Anambra State, he can also reasonably redirect the people’s attention to the values that once made them great. Engaging novelist and newspaper columnist, Okey Ndibe took a telling stab at this when at his first ever reading in Anambra, his home state, he stoutly challenged the flawed but popular maxim that onye ji igu ka ewu n’eso; loosely translated as “the man of means is the ultimate leader,” and argued that the right philosophy should actually emphasize “the man of knowledge” as the ultimate leader. Ndibe’s argument is that it is foolish to heap praises on the consumer who has amassed the means to acquire the luxuries of life and ignore the genius that produced the luxuries in the first place.
And this is the new way of seeing, the radical re-ordering of realities that Governor Obiano must engineer in Anambra State in 2015 to give deeper roots to the reforms that he has brought.

Why are u posting Enugu pics on Anambra thread? Why?

Bro,
Enugu and Anambra are my homes. I will do whatever i deem right to support them. I know you are an Enugu guy and feel exasperated that i used the roundabout in Enugu as an example in Anambra thread. Similarly, i have used roundabouts and medians from Lagos, Nairobi and Kigali as examples to illustrate on how to make Chime avenue median can be made a sight to behold. Why didn't you complain then?
Bro, see my pics on this page and you didn't say anything? https://www.nairaland.com/979128/enugu-pride-east/282#27608190

Look, I don't like myopic individuals of poor character.
You should drop this clannish attitude. Igbo bu ofu!..and we need each other as Nigeria spoils for violence soon.

APGA promised Continuity during Campaigns...
Agulu Lake Bridges has been completed by Obiano!
A PROMISE FULFILLED...

On that same Enugu thread I once used Owerri median as a reference to that same Chime Avenue and got attacked and some even started claiming I was insinuating Owerri is better than Enugu. I guess if I had used Kigali, Sao Tome or Mogadishu it wouldnt have mattered to those people.

Abagworo,
Your antecedents are well known in NL.
First you are an Ikwere guy, then you instigated a war between Anambrans and Imo people luring Chino into your trap to post unprintable things about Ndi Imo. Therefore, your posts are full of suspicion because you are always up to something mischievous.In the Enugu thread, you have severally mentioned that Enugu is ugly and less developed compared to Owerri. Recently in Imo thread, you said only Owerri had street lights unlike Enugu. These statements were designed to cause war between Enugu and Imo people. Luckily there were no Chinos from Enugu State to take your bait.

For me, i am neither from Anambra nor Enugu. I simply have the best interest of Igboland at heart. My track record both in this thread or Enugu thread proves that. I could also have been active in Imo thread helping to proffer solutions, but in the height of your fights with Chino, you declared people should leave your thread. I have left that thread because you opened it. Unless you invite me back to it. If someone else had an Imo thread, i would have been very active there too.
So bro, i no be you. I don't measure d.cks amongst Igbo states, i am simply concerned and completely committed towards the development of the SE.

Cj I admire u a lot because u are a model for excellence. Pls do not join discussion with that cancerous evil old dirty pauper called abagworro.

I have warned him to stop commenting on this thread but never mind because their state thread will bleed soon.

You are wrong. I have never instigated anything at any time. If you think I did show me where. I treat every State same and I simply write the truth. That Owerri is completely streetlighted is not wrong but commendable. I actually drove round the East starting from Uyo to Enugu to Umuahia to Awka to Owerri. I will be posting pictures once in a while to prove my tour and never to ridicule anyone.

Yes,you can marry a 17yrs old in Nigeria. In the US its 18yrs.

I would have posted your exact words right now and showed you the link.
But, i just found out it was among the pages lost after the NL data loss.

You and Berem following Chino's constant posting of foul pictures he said he'd got from Owerri trip, declared that All of us should leave your thread. Besides, you guys started communicating only with each other ignoring those that failed to leave, like me. I eventually left the place disgusted at you people's shortsightedness. I don't need to recall all these because you guys doing the posting know what you said.

Another side of Obiano I like is his cultural orientation....The man is well rounded.

Lol. Stop joining the band wagon. I am a very responsible Igbo man to the core and highly pro-Igbo. The problem with Chino stems from the fact that I dislike and condemn Peter Obi for mainly killing Massob members just to appease non-Igbos.

Me join someone's wagon blindly? Think again!
I am Igbo and i don't particularly like Massob because they don't believe in planned strategic actions. Everything is always adhoc. They wake up one morning and suddenly decide to do something funny. Therefore many times they perform actions which are counter productive to their goal or even childish in most cases. Like taking the Enugu radio station to broadcast they have formed republic of Biafra .
Then come out of the radio station to be handcuffed and driven to Abuja because they have no plans whatsoever to defend what they declared. Such nuisances should be cleared.

You should stop setting up our boys. You have recently recruited B2Mario to join in your hate. Just leave Igbos alone. Stop scattering us by pitching us against eachother just to further APC agenda of breaking Igbo solidarity and unity.

There are alot of things that we are not fine with but we cant stop them from happening.I dont support early marriage but I cant predict the future.
