Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, yesterday, amid excitement inaugurated the 1000 youths recently engaged by his administration to clean up the state under the Enugu Clean Team Project.


Inaugurating the scheme at the popular Michael Okpara, Square, Enugu, Gov. Ugwuanyi stated that the project was in keeping with his administration’s vision and promise to create a cleaner, safer and healthier environment for the people of the state.


The governor added that the project will not only help reduce the risk of epidemics and other health hazards but will also help to improve the aesthetic outlook of the state, saying: “We are indeed hopeful that the project will help us achieve our aspiration of making Enugu the cleanest state in the country”.


He further stated that the project was also in line with the state government’s roadmap for generating employment and creating avenues to engage the teeming population of youths in the development process of the state.


“Accordingly, 1000 Enugu State youths have been recruited to participate in the project. This vision had also guided the creation of other youth development and empowerment schemes that are already being implemented in the state”, Gov. Ugwuanyi explained.


Promising that the state government will continue to provide the team with the necessary equipment and other enablers that will it function effectively, the governor charged the newly recruited youths to approach their duties with patriotic diligence and commitment for the full actualization of the initiative.


The governor, however noted that the task of keeping the environment clean should not be left to government agencies alone, urging residents, institutions and private agencies to join hands in ensuring a clean and healthy environment.


Earlier in his address, the Coordinator of Enugu Clean Team Project, Rev. Fr. Michael Amobi Ogbu expressed gratitude to Gov. Ugwuanyi for initiating the project and sustaining it thus far, disclosing that “we have been equipped with the needed paraphernalia for the project’s take-off, functioning effectively and efficiently”.


He added that members of the team have been trained and devoted to daily sanitation at their duty posts “on individual basis and collectively on weekends”, declaring: “There is no going back in the inner drive for “A Cleaner and Healthier Enugu State”.


Reacting to the development, a cross section of residents of Enugu who witnessed the ceremony has commended Gov. Ugwuanyi for his brave initiative in launching the project, saying that it was a demonstration of his untiring commitment to employment generation and social services and good governance in the state in line with his administration’s four-point agenda.


They stated that the initiative was the first of its kind in the state, adding that it will not only ensure that the state is cleaner and healthier, but will also provide employment for the unemployed youth to better their lives.


Dr. Chidi Nzeobi, a resident of Independence Layout, Enugu, applauded the governor for the unique innovations his administration has brought to bear in the governance of the state, saying that it gladdens his heart that the programmes and policies of the governor are people-centered.


“I came here not just to witness this epoch-making event, but because I m happy and satisfied with the innovative style of leadership of this governor, Gburugburu. His leadership and programmes touch the lives of the commoners, the ordinary people.


“1000 youths is not just a small number, and as we heard him speak here a while ago, he said he will increase the number to 2000. This is great. It means Enugu will be cleaner and healthier and more unemployed youths will be gainfully employed. I sincerely commend him for his good works in Enugu State”, he said.


Gov. Ugwuanyi shortly after the event inspected the ongoing evacuation of refuse dump at Ogui Nike site by Enugu – Port Harcout expressway that had been in existence in the past 12 years without any intervention.

Fun city. Some pictures from Awka Amusement Park, Millennium City, Awka

Cjrane2:
Enugu has 8 (Eight) flyover bridges without counting the Ebeano tunnel or the Sullivan Tunnel along Abakaliki expressway.

All Enugu flyovers are connecting two parts to the city bisected by the Highway.Three on Enugu -Onitsha expressway, One on Enugu-Abakaliki road and four on Enugu -PH expressway.

The problem is that unlike Anambra that has taken time to decorate its own flyovers at Upper Iweka and Nkpor, Enugu largely neglected most of her flyovers to look like a refuse dump.Infact, Enugu flyovers are still in the shape of what upper Iweka flyover used to be in late 1990s. Most of Enugu flyovers are now zones for mechanic shops and dump site for unserviceable vehicles. Perhaps, except the one on Abakaliki road leading to Akanu Ibiam Intl. airport which Sullivan re-built and beautified.

I hope the Enugu state government begins to beautify her flyovers starting with the ones at Gariki, then ones linking Independence layouts Phase I to Phase II and two others on the Enugu-PH road, and also the ones from nineth mile, new market flyover to Trans-Ekulo along the Enugu-Onitsha expressway. They need to demolish all the illegal building built on Enugu flyover ramps, remove those mechanic shops and beautify the places.If they replicate what Peter Obi and Obiano did to Upper Iweka and the Awka flyovers in terms of beautification to Enugu flyovers, then nobody will ever pass Enugu without noticing the amazing beauty of flyovers that connect various areas to the city center. Remember Peter Obi had a hard time to sack all those who used the Upper Iweka Flyover ramp as motor parks and illegal markets, then he beautified the place. Enugu government must be bold and do the same for Enugu and posterity

Awka stadium was abandoned and Obiano is constructing an international conference centre in the former site of the stadium!

The modus operandi ofthe Enugu state government is to map out a piece of land as a housing estate, create roads and gutters in the land and then sell as housing estates.

Xander85:
This looks promising.

There's a distinct lack of trees in the pics. Hopefully they'd think of greening up the area as well.

Also, i hope they're not thinking of painting the base with that garish yellow-black-yellow scheme shown in the render! Painting that structure is a bad idea...the precast concrete should be left with its natural look.

I was scrolling through TV channels this afternoon when on BBC I saw it announced that Brent Crude is still priced at $75 per barrel. The last I heard of it the global price was around $40 per barrel and we were still in recession over the issue.
Doing a search of their official website revealed to me this 'news' is old as 24 April 2018 [last month].

Why haven't our leaders made the good news known? How will it benefit the masses apart from reduced suffering for the populace? We were made to understand it was falling oil prices which resulted in grinding hardship, why are we not briefed on how things will go for the better with rising oil prices?


Proof: www.bbc.com/news/topics/cmjpj223708t/oil
Scroll down and you'll see the graph showing the climb in price.

I don't know the deal Madinuju and Ngige had with Chris Ubah's family on Alex Ekwueme's dual-carriage road Awka? I learnt they were the ones that started the project, Peter Obi avoided working on this road, Gov Obiano light up campaign in Anambras when the team got here, instead of them using the street light poles already installed the had to installed new ones by the side of the road

The road was started by Mbadinuju, previous governors after him abandoned the project, it caused serious erosion until Obiano intervened, he's trying to connect the road to Esther Obiakor road

Correct!!!Local production is truly the key.

If we can find a way to attract Chinese investors with manufacturing knowledge of solar panels to came at partner with a manufacturing firm in nnewi or Aba, it would bring an energy revolution overnight and create over 100,000 new jobs in the energy industry.

Those making and installing solar panels will be making more money than those working in the oil industry..
