You reason like someone with brain trauma. Which enabling environment and infrastructure are you talking about? Anambra already has the best infrastructure and enabling environment for businesses to thrive, that's why the headquarters of Ibeto group, Cutix Plc, Adswitch Plc, Kotec group (parent company of Tummy-Tummy food industries) and many others are in Nnewi. In Onitsha, Africana-First Publishers (the third biggest book publishing company in Nigeria) have their headquarters. MBI Obosi, the only private-owned television station in the east is in the Onitsha area. And numerous other large and medium factories whose operational headquarters are in Onitsha. In Awka, Orient Petroleum has its headquarters. Which other state in the east boasts of more corporate headquarters?

No need for unnecessary insults. Don't forget to add the headquarters of Innoson is also in Anambra. I will get others to the list.

Senate Committee Visits Obiano, Commends Anambra Govt For Active Participation In National Housing Project

15 JUNE 2018.

WRITTEN BY KENECHUKWU OFOMAH

The Nigerian Senate has commended Anambra State Government for meeting its counterpart obligations for the siting of a National Housing Project in the State.

The Chairman, Senate Committee on Lands, Housing and Urban Development, Senator Barnabas Gemade conveyed the commendation of the Upper Legislative House when he led some members of the committee on a visit to Governor Willie Obiano.

Government House Correspondent Kenechukwu Ofomah was at the Governor's lodge Amawbia where the Senators had lunch meeting with the Governor and reports that among other Senators on the entourage were the Member representing Edo South Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Senator Mathew Urhoghide and his Imo North Counterpart, Senator Benjamin Uwajumogu.

Senator Gemade who spoke after the lunch meeting, said they were in the State to see for themselves, how work is progressing on three ongoing Federal Projects namely the National Housing Project, the Federal Secretariat and the Zik Mausoleum.

Noting that successive administrations at the Federal level had gone without paying attention to the housing needs of the people, Senator Gemade stated that it is the intention of the Buhari-administration to partner States of the Federation to undertake housing schemes across the state.

He however regretted that most states were not forthcoming in the partnership and commended Governor Obiano for his proactiveness in ensuring that Anambra State keys into the initiative to cater for the housing needs of the people.

Earlier while welcoming his guests, Governor Obiano said the state will continue to partner the Federal Government across productive areas that will have positive bearing on the lives of Ndi Anambra.

It will be recalled that Anambra has met its counterpart obligations, having provided the land for the project.

Always posting senseless comments

Everyone knows that that person is always making senseless and unfounded comments. Does he think that Onitsha of 2018 is the Onitsha of 1980? I have decided not to reply his lies borne out of bitterness. I wonder what people gain by lying all over the place.
