Uli town is a quiet and peaceful town in Ihiala LGA of Anambra State. The town means different things to different people and these include home to the then Biafran Airport, home to industrialists like Dr ABC Orjiakor, Igirigi and others. Besides boasting of celebrities like E-money and Kcee, it is also home big time politicians like one time governor of Anambra State, Dr Chinwoke Mbadinuju, Hon Engr Fort Ifeanyi Dike a former member of the House of Reps, Hon Vitalis Okafor and a host of others. Despite all these, the town has continued to suffer neglect from both the government and it's leaders. While the town has been without light for well over ten years, the roads are so deplorable that they can be best described as death traps. Recently, while addressing one of the social media platforms in the town, the ex-legislator made some revelations.
These are his words. "Not withstanding that I was a first-timer in the House Of Representatives, I was able to not only make the Uli Girls/Mgbachi Road an official Federal Government Road (Connecting Onitsha/Owerri Road to Ihiala/Orlu Road) but got the Federal Ministry Of Works to award a Road contract of N770 million for the construction of the Uli Girls/Mgbachi/Amaofuo/Isseke/Orlu Road Junction, also with payment for Mobilization. Unfortunately, the then Minister Of Works insisted on giving the said Road contract to his fellow Edo man, instead of either Julius Berger or any of the big name Road Contractors. The Edo Contractor started the Road but abandoned the Road as soon as I was not re-elected".
Below are screen shots of the N770m road.
EFCC should please consider this an official petition from Uli youths.

Chai!
