Anambra Splashes N397Million On Contract To Remodel Presidential Lodge Amid Flooding, Low Spending On Erosion Control


Anambra State Government has awarded a contract worth ₦397.73 million for the remodelling of the Presidential Lodge at the Government House in Awka, according to procurement records.

The contract, listed under the state’s Ministry of Works and Infrastructure, is for the “Proposed Remodelling of Presidential Lodge at Government House, Awka Anambra State.”

The procurement record shows that the project has a budget and contract value of ₦397,730,556.86.

The contract was awarded to O.BEN Developers Limited.

According to the records, the contract was signed on June 26, 2026, with work scheduled to commence on June 27 and run for 121 days until October 26, 2026.

The procurement record identified “transparency and accountability” as the planning rationale for the project.

The award was dated June 22, 2026, and the award criterion was listed as the “Most Responsive Bidder.”

The contract is currently marked as active, while the corresponding award record is marked as completed.

The project, with procurement reference number ocds-j74acu-108889-AN/WRK/01-NG, was listed under the Ministry of Works and Infrastructure.

The records did not provide details of the specific renovation or remodelling works to be carried out at the Presidential Lodge, nor did they state the individual components or quantities covered by the ₦397.73 million contract.

The procurement data also listed the quantity of the award item as zero, while no delivery address was provided in the award item section.

With the contract period extending into October 2026, the project is expected to be completed within the 121-day implementation period stipulated in the procurement record.

SaharaReporters earlier reported that amid renewed flooding concerns in Anambra State, the government spent just ₦135 million on erosion and flood control between January and June 2026, despite allocating ₦5 billion for the intervention, according to a review of official budget performance documents.

The spending represents 2.7 per cent of the budget provision, leaving about ₦4.865 billion unspent by the end of June.

The low expenditure comes as parts of the state face flooding after heavy rainfall. The latest incident in Awka left one person missing and six children rescued by emergency responders.

On Tuesday, heavy rain triggered flooding around Ring Road in Agu Awka, disrupting movement in the area. Officials of Awka South Local Government Area at the scene said the immediate situation had been brought under control, while emergency agencies continued response operations.

The National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and the Anambra State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) coordinated the rescue efforts.

The six children were taken to Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital in Amaku, Awka, for medical attention. Search efforts for the missing person continued.

Videos from the scene showed floodwaters inundating parts of Ring Road and disrupting movement.

Don’t mind that Agulu Messiah Gringory Obi.

Racoon:
Let the roforofo mudsling fight by Soludo continue even to the courts if it has been a case of demand for accountability or political witch hunting. It is good for the polity. So that Peter Obi will be well scrutinized.

The Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo, came under heavy criticism on Wednesday following the release of alleged records of loan taken by presidential candidate of the Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC Peter Obi, when he served as governor of the state.

DAILY POST earlier reported that the Anambra State government on Wednesday released what it termed the public debt records of Peter Obi, while he was governor of the state.

The government said Obi’s administration left outstanding loans as well as arrears of salaries, pensions and gratuities inherited by subsequent administrations amounting to N127 billion.

In a statement by the Commissioner for Information and Value Reorientation, Dr Law Mefor, the government said the administration of Governor Chukwuma Soludo had cleared about N22 billion in inherited gratuity arrears owed to retired state and local government employees and teachers.

However, some X users took to the comment section to criticize the Anambra State governor, accusing him of engaging in bitter politics against his predecessor.

Here are some of the reactions compiled by DAILY POST.

@Justice4U8: If @PeterObi send this people to jail now, they will start crying. Now you’re publicly going crazy because Governor Soludo wants to be minister after Governor. You that his using to publish rubbish. I hope you can definitely defend all this rubbish. You rushed to publish.

cisero81: Soludo you are a Professor for goodness sakes. Could you concentrate on governance and stop this stupidity and bitterness? Was Anambra money missing or stolen under Obi? What is the source of your bitterness and misery exactly?

@Whiteswizzy: Soludo is an educated illiterate. He’s fighting Obi because of Tinubu. He has no evidence of his claim.

@Danhenchi: Are you guys really this stupid? Or is this a movie script? Why don’t you tell us the exchange rate at the time Peter Obi was governor? Did Peter Obi spend these monies in 2026? Envy can really make people try to defend the indefensible no matter how it makes them look.

@Karlomege: Bunch of liars. Initially you said it was 123.77 billion dollars. Now, you are changing it to million dollars. Inconsistency is how criminals are caught. After few hours, you will still come back to say it’s 123 thousand dollars.

@Movingwinds19: Obi will stop his campaign and step down. He has been caught.

@KellyValentyne: Soludo left the Dubai-Taiwan Anambra he promised Anambra people to meddle in propaganda and blackmail. It is a shame that I once believed he will deliver, this truly shows that education is not wisdom and leadership has nothing to do with Ur educational

kedeojo:
I am very sure obi will not respond again and you his zombies will say, he should focus on his imaginary presidency. Una enter wella. Obi has been bursted. Anyway i am not surprise cos i know he has nothing to offer.

BATified2023:
if obi is wise n reasonable, he should better keep quiet cos the more he talks d more he gets exposed.

If he say another thing, soludo is ready to release more damaging evidences of him.

The best time for obi to keep quiet n let this slide is now

Your emotional outbursts show you are not thinking clearly due emotional outbursts and hunger cause from joblessness.
