The new Govt House project is a welcome development but I wonder why Soludo chose to return to the old abandoned Govt House site instead of the new 3 arm zone proposed by the Peter Obi govt. The new 3 armed zone would have been better in my opinion, as it caters for all arms of government in one location.
Lets hope another governor does not come and also decides to go develop the 3 arm zone because this Govt house will only cater for the executive. The old govt house site could have been used for something else.

The new government house is near federal secretariat and state secretariat, I noticed work have started there they have started bringing building materials, I believe after completion of the project they will dualize the road to link up with Akex Ekweme road

The new govt house is a better location. Legislature, Secretariat, Court are all there. They should also relocate lands there, ASUDEB and tax office.

Anambra Fashion Expo: Opening Anambra to the world, placing Awka on the Fashion Map

Anambra, a state blessed with human capital resources, and innovators have not taken its place as far as fashion and entertainment are concerned. This is a state that prides itself as the “light of the nation” but sad to say that its light hasn't reflected on activities centred around innovation, fashion evolution and the effervescent youthful energies on free display — the good news is; that things are about to change.

One of the mantras of the 21st century that has been represented everywhere is “Innovate or Die.” That very phrase has led to the discovery of many geniuses, breaking new grounds, exploring the unexplored, exercising their youthful strength in pushing for causes like what we saw with #ENDSars, garnering real-time numbers like the growth and awesomeness of CKay and more. This to many is the new world order.

In this stead, a state that has been likened to anything and everything business, and has shied away from showcasing other strengths, especially as it concerns Entertainment, Fashion and Lifestyle is about to get its groove on. These sectors are the top economic movers in saner climes, and help in reducing the high spate of unemployment and insecurity - hence the need for a robust private sector investment, with sure ready government backing.

The Anambra Fashion Expo is an idea birthed by our very own, and one from Anambra first family. The recent buzz by the organizers of Anambra Fashion Week, their awe-inspiring strategies and their media uproar is about to change things for Igbo “premium state,” Anambra, even as it is geared towards attracting investors/investments and building strong confidence for homegrown fashion and accessories stakeholders.

The Anambra Fashion Expo will give room for indigenous creatives to showcase their crafts, reduce the massive brain drain to other states and regions, much thanks to the huge lacuna the expo is about to fix, and make the state colourful with ambience, colours, swank and styles. Also, professionals and top fashion houses from all over the country will converge in their numbers to support the maiden edition, which promises to be an avenue for fanfare and merriment.

The choice location — the newly built international Conference Center, for this year's event, is in tandem with the project itself as the location was perfectly crafted for events with large numbers.

We look forward to a fun-packed event as organised by a hard-working team, having the enigmatic and thoroughbred SSA on media to the Anambra Governor, Mr Charles Chukwuma Soludo
in the person of Mazi Ejimofor Opara powering the media and strategy team.

We hope for the best!!!

POST ANSEC MEDIA RELEASE

1. Anambra State Executive Council (ANSEC) frowns at the frequent cases of youths incursions into the lands of people who have appropriate government titles. This is illegal and can no longer be tolerated. ANSEC has therefore directed relevant law enforcement agencies to immediately arrest such errant youths and prosecute them according to the law. Section 6, sub section (1) of the Prohibition of Fraudulent Practices on Land and Property law of 2012 prohibits illegal collection of fees on lands as follows: “Any person who demands or collects any fee not approved by law from any person who is developing or improving on an already existed property in the State shall be guilty of an offence and liable to imprisonment for five years or to a fine of five hundred thousand naira or both.

2. The effort to rid our roads and streets’ corners of refuse is beginning to yield some obvious results. Government therefore urges households and the general public to desist from indiscriminate refuse disposal. Anambra State Waste Management Agency (ASWAMA) is gradually transiting to door-to-door refuse collection and anybody found disposing refuse at unauthorized locations will be promptly sanctioned.

3. In fulfillment of Governor Soludo’s campaign promise to immediately commence the urban regeneration of Okpoko slum in Ogbaru Local Government Area, ANSEC approved the rehabilitation of 9 roads in Okpoko measuring 14.053 kilometers with dual carriage, reinforced concrete media and sidewalks on both sides. The roads will cost N9 billion and will be completed in 12 months.
ANSEC also approved the full scale desilting and dredging of 62,034 cubic metres of Nwangene drainage which has been a source of nightmare to road users. The project which will cost N241,439,316.29, is going to completed in 3 months .
The rehabilitation of the failed carriage way and embankment at Mmili John section of Oba-Ojoto road and the dredging of Mmili John was equally approved by ANSEC. The work will cost N61,494,541.88 and is expected to be completed in 6 weeks.

4. The memo on the abandoned government house and 25 other peripheral structures was presented by the Commissioner for Housing and considered by ANSEC. The project which will cost N6.088 billion and completed within 18 months was approved by ANSEC. Also endorsed for construction are gate houses, police posts, perimeter fence measuring 2.22 linear kilometers and other internal works such as drive ways, parking areas, walk ways, drainages, water supplies, green area, etc. All of these will be complete at the cost of N1.317 billion and delivered in 9 months.

5. It came to the attention of ANSEC that some unscrupulous elements are selling parts of Mamu Forest Reserve. Government is poised to arrest and prosecute all those that are culpable in these unlawful land transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, Mamu Forest Reserve is not for sale and any property developer or member of the public who allows him/herself to be lured into purchasing parcel(s) of land there will have him/herself to blame.

6. To further improve the quality of health care delivery in the State, government through the Ministry of Health placed a vacancy advert two months ago for medical consultants and officers, pharmacists, nurses, radiographers, medical laboratory scientists and technicians. ANSEC directed the Commissioner for Health to interview the 4,400 applicants who applied for the jobs so that they would be immediately employed and deployed to our health care facilities.

Can your state be written about without fake attempts to put down others nwanne?

NwekereNdoki:



Wow.. This is a great move. Soludo is starting well. These are key things that are necessary to change the face of Onitsha. Especially ROADS.

Onitsha is a heavily developed city, but one of the things that deface it is bad roads and old buildings that the owners don't renovate.

IF SOLUDO can invest more on roads in Onitsha and Awka having good dual carriage roads/innercity roads with closed drainage and sidewalks, I tell you, he will write his name in Gold. Onitsha people just needs roads, they will do the rest.

Onitsha and AlaIgbo will rise.

pandax:


Circa 14km at 9bn naira. I believe Julius Berger will be the contractor for the Okpoko Roads dualization. This is what we are talking about folks.

I will be looking forward to the new government house completion and extension of the 8-lane Alex Ekwueme Road Northeastwards to Ifite axis (around Isioji and Anaocha areas) and extend Esther Obiakor Ave Northwestwards to meet 8-lane Alex Ekwueme Ave somewhere at Anaocha or Amaokpala axis of Ifite, Awka. Please open Awka for us

Aroma Flyover might be redesigned to cope with the new realities on ground AND i expect clover-leaf Flyover at Agu-Awka/Eze uzu junction

This is elating...How I wish Soludo will also touch the State House of Assembly, that building and pricinct needs refurbishment and gentrificationMore power to our governor.

AmericanQuarter:
Onitsha takes another giant stride as the economic hub of the eastern region. Major multi national companies will be making in-roads into the city to take advantage of the new economic corridors as the 8-lanes Onitsha 2nd Niger bridge and access roads nears completion.

PROUDIGBO:


This really is a none issue! If someone says his state is ‘premium state’, just read it and move on….after all, it’s their thread! Conversely, anyone taking offence at such a harmless designation can go to their own state thread, post a positive news report that shows their state in a good light, and likewise attach a ‘premium state’ status to their own state based on said report! We shouldn’t be spoiling for a fight over every little thing!
