Enugu votes N522m for rural streetlights The Enugu State government has approved the contract for streetlights in some satellite towns to Messrs Vec Tek Nigeria Limited, for N522.39 million. The approval followed a memorandum presented by the Commissioner for Rural Development, Gab Onuzulike. Beneficiaries of the first phase include Nsukka. The government said the initiative would boost the economy, reduce rural-urban drift and check criminal activities. Commissioner for Information Dr. Godwin Ikechukwu Udeuhele, who addressed reporters in Enugu after the State Executive Council (Exco) meeting, said the government approved the constitution and inauguration of the State Technology and Innovation Council (SSTIC), a statutory requirement by the Federal Ministry of Science and Technology. Its constitution, he noted, was “fundamentally important to the realisation of the ministry’s set objectives”. Udeuhele said the government sought to establish the “needs-gap-requirement scenario that reflects on the essential attribute of the national science, technology and innovation policy” as explained by the Commissioner for Science and Technology, Greg Nnaji, who initiated the memorandum. The Information commissioner said the Exco also approved N49.5 million for the procurement of dialysis machines, and N265.51 million for priority projects to complete the Medical Diagnostic Centre at the GRA in Enugu. He said the Exco approved the payment of salaries for public servants and pensioners, following the successful completion of biometrics and the submission of the Inter-Ministerial Committee’s report. Udeuhele added that the council approved the appointment of a firm, Niceken Logistic Limited, to collect the state’s revenue on quarrying, mining of gravels, laterite and sand. According to him, the council directed the attorney-general and commissioner for Justice to generate a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), in line with conditions in the committee’s review report between the Ministry of Environment, Mineral Resources and the firm. |

ENUGU—The Enugu State government has approved the award of contracts for 35 capital projects comprising the construction of roads, bridges, schools and boreholes across the 17 local government areas of the state. Ugwuanyi The state Commissioner for Information, Dr Godwin Edeuhele, made this known while briefing newsmen shortly after the meeting of the State Executive Council, EXCO, in Enugu adding that the projects would gulp about N2.1 billion. According to him, the government further approved another N41 million for women empowerment projects. Udeuhele said that this showed the government’s commitment to provide infrastructural development in the state, in spite of the country’s economic recession. He however, explained that the projects, particularly roads, would be implemented in phases depending on the government’s financial capability at each stage, pointing out that work on the selected projects would commence simultaneously in all the council areas. On women empowerment projects, the government said that 969 women and youths would be trained on various trades across the state with the aim of encouraging gender parity. Meanwhile, the government has ordered the re-opening of Oakland Recreational Park, which was shut following the death of two children as a result malfunctioning of one of their facilities. However, there would henceforth be a monthly evaluation of recreational parks and event centres in the state in order to ascertain their levels of compliance with standard safety guidelines, the government further noted, even as the operators of such centres would be required to have insurance covers for users of their facilities. Other items approved by the council included the formation of an Eminent Persons Forum, EPF, including retired public officials, religious and traditional rulers which would be used as a “platform for seasoned and experienced indigenes of the state to offer advice and suggestions to the police as regards solving emergent safety and security issues in the state and the country.” Read more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/09/enugu-approves-35-contracts-n2-1bn/ |
Herdsmen killings: Ex-General heads Enugu’s security committee Herdsmen killings: Ex-General heads Enugu’s security committee By Emmanuel Uzodinma on September 6, 2016 Worried by the incessant attack on people of the Enugu State by herdsmen, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, Tuesday, inaugurated a Security Committee.

Enugu Housing embarks on building housing estate The Enugu State Government said it has embarked on massive development of satellite towns in the state, with the aim of decongesting Enugu, the capital city. Enugu has remained a capital city for the mainly Igbo-speaking South Eastern Nigeria, for about 100 years since the advent of the colonial era. Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, who said the project was one of his campaign promises in 2015, said the project would create a better living and business environment for the state capital, which was the former administrative capital of old Eastern Regional government in the 1960s before the outbreak of the Civil War in 1967; and was capital of old East Central State and old Anambra State in 1967 and 1976. The general manager of Enugu State Housing Corporation (ESHC), Chuks Agu told BusinessDay after signing a land agreement of over 50 hectares, located along the Enugu-Onitsha Expressway, between the state Housing Corporation and leaders of Amaukwu and Ozalla Aboh villages in Udi Local Government Area of the state, for the purpose of building housing estates. Agu said the concept of embarking on the development of satellite towns was to decongest the Enugu township that is already filled up. “We want to have satellite towns. We want to develop the outskirts (of Enugu) to decongest the city center; and the only way out of it is to build more satellite towns around the city,” he said. According to him, the Housing Corporation has entered into discussions with over 10 communities selected for the development of Satellite Towns around the capital city; and would sign the agreements with some of them. Some of the towns mapped out, he said, include Akegbe Ugwu, Aboh, Umuchigbo, Emene area, Ugwuaji, among others. The Housing Corporation general manager said the housing estates would not only fasten the development of those communities, but would also create job opportunities, and enhance the economy and living standard of the people, through the establishment of small businesses in those places. Speaking on how the civil servants and others would benefit from the housing estates, he said due to the high cost of building houses now, the corporation has entered into discussions with some mortgage institutions to see if they could assist the employees offset their bills, for them to pay over time. “We are also making arrangement with associations and cooperatives to see if they can pull resources together and raise money to offset the bills and pay over time,” Agu said; adding that “as a Corporation, we need money to develop these houses too.” On corporate social responsibility (CSR), the Housing Corporation GM said the housing estates would not only respect all the terms written on the agreement document, but would also do other social developments for the benefit of the people. “I have very good relationship with all the communities we are developing estates in their areas, and I know their leaders and traditional rulers. We will also meet up with our corporate responsibilities,” he said. The two communities were represented by their town union executives led by their two chairmen, Chijioke Mbah, the chairman of Amaukwu Development Union (ADU) and Everestus Udengwu, the chairman of Ozalla Aboh General Assembly, with some selected elders and youths of both communities, to endorse the agreement. The two chairmen, who spoke to BusinessDay expressed happiness over the development, and promised to maintain the terms of the agreement. They however appealed to the state government to take the opportunity create a road from the Enugu-Onitsha Expressway to Aboh community for easy access to Enugu town. |
CBN rolls out N1 billion loan to rice farmers in Enugu At least 5,000 farmers in Enugu State would benefit from a N1 billion Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) loan to the state for rice farmers. This is aimed at encouraging interested rice farmers in the state to go into full scale commercial rice farming. Godwin Emefiele, the CBN Governor, who disclosed this in Enugu during the 2nd launching of the Enugu CBN’s Anchor Borrowers’ program, said the program was in conjunction with the Okunerere Farms Limited (the anchor), and the Enugu State Government. Emefiele noted that CBN strongly believes that under the present economic situation, developing agricultural sector, and acting as a financial catalyst to the economy by targeting specific sectors that can create jobs on a mass scale, reduce poverty broadly, boost inclusive economic growth and conserve scarce foreign reserves in the country, would be a way out of the economic problem. According to the CBN governor, “Nigeria’s food import bill is both exceptionally and unsustainably high; and that relying heavily on food importation fuels domestic inflation, depletes our foreign reserves, displaces local production and creates unemployment in the country.” Represented by Charles Enwere, the apex bank boss pointed that the anchor borrowers program was designed to create economic linkages between farmers and processors; not only to ensure increased agricultural output of rice, but also close the gap between production and consumption by ramping up capacity utilization in our integrated mills.” he said. “In Enugu State, we are targeting 5,000 farmers. We are looking at two anchors, the first was Tarra Agro Industries and the second one was Okunerere Farm Limited. Tarra has a target of 3,000 farmers, while Okunerere has 2,000 farmers. So our combined capacity for farmers is 5,000. That is what we are looking out for in Enugu State, the CBN boss said. He added that “what we actually did was to cost the production of rice in Enugu State per hectare, and we came up with the total sum of N193,000 per hectare. So that is the amount we are going to give to each farmer. He however, said they were not going to give to the farmers cash. The component of it is given to them as inputs, such as seedlings, fertilizers, pesticides and other important inputs to help boost agricultural outputs and productivity. Then the labour components would be paid in their account. Flagging off the program, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, who was represented by his deputy, Cecilia Ezeilo said, his government would do anything within its reach to support farmers in the state for real diversification of the state economy. According to him, the program would not only stimulate rice padi production in the state, but it would enable all rice processors in the state to get sufficient feed stock for their rice processing mills. Governor Ugwuanyi noted that the beauty of the CBN anchor borrowers’ program was based on the fact that the farmers would not need to look for market to sell their rice padi, as the ‘off-takers,’ Okunerere Mills, Tara Agro Industries Limited and others with subsisting MoU’s with the state government would purchase all rice produced by the farmers. He commended the initiative, and stated that when fully operational in two years, it is expected to drastically reduce food importation, diversify the country’s economy and create jobs for women and youths. However, the regional manager, Bank of Agriculture (BoA) reminded the farmers that the money given to them was not a grant, but loans; and the Bank must collect back every kobo involved. |
slysteel:Honestly, i am disappointed with the rejoinder, what i wanted to hear was the main reason why the project has not taken off, rather than all these flimsy excuses he gave |
This rejoiner shows that Gov Ugwuanyi or his Aids are following discussion on this forum Rejoinder: Gov. Ugwuanyi is not sitting on the fence in the biggest foreign investment south of the Sahara – Enugu communityBut my problem with this poor response is, if our government can take loan to carry out white elephant projects, why can the state govt seek loan to finance this important project |
This huge investment must not be allowed to go like that |

He expressed delight that the project has become a reality and commended the government for its commitment towards ensuring its successful take off. Location. The former Governor made it clear that due to the importance the government attached to the project, it had already provided a large expanse of land for the establishment of the Industrial Park and would also ensure that all the necessary facilities were provided to ensure its successful take off,but time was not on his side then since he had a little period left to spend in office and expected that the new governor would continue from where he stopped. The land is located in the following communities: Emene Nchatancha Akpuoga Oruku Amechi Idodo Owo
