Roads rehabilitation gulps N480m
As Anambra declares work-free day for funeral
Tony Okafor, Awka

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, has said President Muhammadu Buhari is committed to giving a former Vice President, late Dr. Alex Ekwueme, a befitting burial.

Ngige spoke on Sunday at Ekwueme’s hometown in Oko, Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State after inspecting facilities for the burial of the late VP.



He said Buhari had committed about N1bn on Ekwueme from the day the Federal Government took over his medical bills to date.



While saying that road rehabilitation alone in Anambra State and neighbouring communities of Imo and Abia states in preparation for Ekwueme’s burial had gulped about N480m, Ngige said Federal Government was not leaving anything to chances in ensuring that the Ekwueme family enjoys the role their late patriarch played in building a better Nigeria

He said, “You know that I belong to the Ekwueme family; I’m part of that family.

“I’m in various committees and subcommittees for the burial of this great statesman. I can tell you authoritatively that Mr President (Buhari) is committed and passionate in ensuring a befitting burial for Ekwueme.

“If he doesn’t come for the burial himself, I’m sure the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, will be here for the burial as a matter of right.

“So, I’m here to inspect the facilities in preparation for his burial; and I can tell you that I’m satisfied with the progress of work.

“The Federal Government is doing rehabilitation works on Amawbia/Ekwulobia road, up to Uga and Akokwa in Imo State.

“We’re also doing road rehabilitation on Oko/Umunze road up to Ibinta in Abia State.



“I know the cost of all this, not less than N480m.

“The Federal Government is building the mausoleum, which will contain a modern library and other facilities and I also know the cost of that too.

“And remember that the Federal Government took up all the medical bills of flying him abroad and bringing him back to Nigeria from London upon his death.

“The cost of hiring an air ambulance is not a joke. So, Buhari has honoured this Igbo son in all ramifications.

“He has committed not less than a billion naira in this project because he is passionate about it,” Ngige stated.

The Minister added that the Federal Government was considering naming a national monument after Ekwueme to immortalise him.

Similarly, the Anambra State Government has commenced works on internal roads in Oko and environs, preparatory for the burial.

Briefing reporters, a Senior Special Adviser to Governor Willie Obiano on Inter-Party matters, Chief Ben Obi, said a virgin four-kilometre road had been created in the area for easy movement during the funeral.

He said parking bays had been created in about six points, where shuttles would be provided to ferry mourners to the funeral venue, while St Mary’s Catholic Church, Oko, playground would serve as a helipad for the Vice President’s visit.

Meanwhile, the Anambra State Government has declared Thursday this week as a work-free day.

In a public service announcement by the Secretary to the Anambra State Government, Prof. Solo Chukwulobelu, all markets and businesses in the state would be closed on that day.

The announcement read in part, “As part of the funeral arrangements for the late Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency, Dr. Alex Ifeanyichukwu Ekwueme (GCON), Anambra State Government hereby announces that … Thursday, February 1st, 2018 is work-free day in Anambra State.

“All markets and businesses will be closed on that day to enable Ndi Anambra, friends, associates and well wishers to pay our last respect to the late Vice President.

“All those attending the commendation ceremony, including various social, cultural, religious, political, professional, educational, market men and women, and all other groups are to be seated by 10am prompt.”

Born October 21,1932, Ekwueme died on Sunday 19th November 2017 at a London hospital

He served as first elected Vice President of Nigeria from 1979 to 1983 under a former President, Shehu Shagari.

Supersonic fraud. See stealing in the name of medics and burial for one person. That means the amount Buhari would claim for medics abroad would be upto N1trillion. This government's stealing would be exposed when another party enters Aso rock. Babanla Ole

Buhari has spent all his nine lives if he like let him combine this with 1 trillion to the Ooni No second term shikena. Kai Buhari.

Seem it's good for all these our leaders to be dying o, since it's the only way to be getting our environments developed, see as that area now done get good roads so quick, I pray after the burial people won't start dying on those virgin and rehabilitated roads

An icon leaving.... RIP sir

this is what happens in Nigeria as an ex VP government will take 100% in charge of his burial so this government should stop politicizing it he deserved it when you give me what belongs to me you haven't done any gud thing to me but 1bn is joke

If he spent 1bn on Ekwueme, how much did he spent on himself ? No wonder There's no meaningful development in Nigeria under Buhari

PMB have so far spent #1bn, for erstwhile vice president burial, despite the hunger in town. Well, a way of pacifying the Easterners in the forthcoming election.

So ekwueme's burial is now a capital project, imagine using 1bn to bury one person, can these people lie sensibly

story for sango!.... FIX Nigeria! most folks are living in despair! Nigeria needs a president!

Is it Buhari money or Nigerian money. If Buhari actually spent such from personal coffee he must be investigated because 60 cows won't give him that income

This short midget devil called Ngige is mad.

May Ekwueme spirit strike you with madness for using his burial to do politics.

Thunder scatter buhari, ngige and all APC mad cows inshalla amin suma Allah illalah!

Buhari incarcerated Ekwueme for no reason, he was investigated and found to be poorer than he was before being VP, has buhari apologized to him? You threw the VP into jail while Shagari the President BC he is your brother was enjoying at home. Thunder fire you there buhari d bigot presidiot.

ihitenansa:
akpuda shd also reveal to us how much buhari spent on himself on medical tourism last yr

Chai! Lol @ Akpudanda

characteristics of a shithole! multitude are living in penury, infrastructures are decaying....

sarrki:
In as much I agreed to honor our hero
That money is just a way too much with our current economic situation

Are you saying that Buhari and Ngige padded the amount corruptly as they pad the budget
Please explain. Thanks

This man is a bloody liar, did you see ekwueme's house!

yaki84:
The cost of hiring an air ambulance is not a joke. So, Buhari has
honoured this Igbo son in all ramifications.

This ngige is just a complicated compendium fool.
Why bring tribe to this national leader?
Someone who was a vice president n constitutionally is supposed to be taken care by the fed govt, n this foolish short shitholean is talking as if govt of buhari is doing him a favor....

Buhari didn't take care of him wen he was alive.

Buhari refused to release state funds for his treatment.

Buhari can't spend or plan to spend 1 billion naira for his funeral.

drss2:
if buari spend N1 Billion as alleged by ngige on ekwueme's health, how much did buari dullard spend on his 103 days (3 months) medical tourism in UK

Good Question!

You must be very stupid Ngige!!!
