@Okijamaka, 4 hours of work stoppages helps to encourage unemployment. Millions of money & revenue are lost due to 4 hour closure of business!. In my own opinion it is much better to follow what is done world over to use these money to employ people instead of closures!

Security men are all over the place they won't allow strengers or even their works to take picture of the facilities

It is clear that you respect Anambra thread. I thought you would only want to insult people just to make a point. I could have exposed you by posting all your fake facebook and linkedin profile here.

Yes, i do not know anything about flyovers but i always strive for the highest quality and best design.If the Awka flyovers will cost Anambra a whopping N 5 billion naira, the onus is on every good citizen to make sure they are of the highest quality and best design.
Someone mentioned the Enugu airport road flyover at Emene, that is another good design that takes into consideration those coming and going to Abakaliki and builds a ramps to adequately route traffic smoothly.

Part of the problem why Awka has remained the least developed of all the state capitals created in 1991 and indeed in the SE is doing everything with shoddy designs and half baked contractors. It is almost as though mediocrity is an acceptable state policy. Even the Zik's avenue which has remained the ONLY dualized road since Awka became a state capital territory more than 23 years ago, was done so shabbily that it is so narrow with street lights that look like they were cannibalized from the old streetlights on a very old street.

Today, look at Dutse, Lokoja, Asaba, Umuahia, Birnin Kebbi or Damaturu in comparison to Awka. In 1991, except for Umuahia, Awka was considered more of a developed city than all those village towns. Compare them today to Awka and see.They all look like real state capital cities except Awka.Some of them even have well constructed stadia. Which many here will find insulting if you compared their stadia to the one built in Anambra.

Anambra is definitely a state of giants, but its leadership have been largely mediocre. We spend about what other states spend on infrastructure, but the quality of what we get is often mediocre and worse inferior. For example the Enugu Shoprite mall cost N5.2 billion naira and it is 2 storey and 22,000 sq. meters with parking lot for 1000 cars, while the Onitsha shoprite mall is just 12,000 sq. meters, a bungalow mall and with parking for just 500 cars, yet it cost N4.9 billion! I can also assure you that when they finish, you still won't know where the money was spent.
Therefore, we must change the way we act and begin to demand that barest minimum standards must be upheld for projects in Anambra projects too.

Onitsha is very small to compare with other SE cities(tho.i think owerri is largest) in terms of land mass buh with the merging of other towns like(nkpor,obosi,awada,iyiowa,odekpe okpoko,nkwere and ogidi)is larger,densely populated,is a cosmopolitan cities,having the tallest,closely packed residential flats and malls(plaza) which are build by business tycoons who wishes to widden their financial horizon by renting out the houses..
Mind you,onitsha isn't planned buh organised not by govt,infact there is meagre govt presence in the town....
Alas,the city has been living behind its worth and potential because of our incompetent leaders..
Not until she has good/wider roads,hospitality.planned housing,water,constant power,sporting facilities,robust sanitation and what have you,she'll still remain stagnant and even worsen

always viewing without contributing.

emmysoftyou:
there is sth i really want the anambra govt to embark upon,
that s shoprite,gallery and spar aka park n shop..
all dis project re needed in onitsha outskirts .
i think
we really nid it in awka or onitsha because of its drastic development nd population growth rate..
though onitsha is not that big,but they can extend their lands to obosi since onitsha is closer to the place..
Pls we need d govt to embark on the masterplan of onitsha with immediate effect...
i wanna see the new side of onitsha becos
anambra is the home of nigeria as all.
so i see it gaining more drastic population very soon.

i remain faithful to the entire igboland

Ilovenigeria:
It does, as a matter of fact it helps in spicing up night live. We have hotels in some residential hood in lagos and it works.
Imagine after going to a show at that stadium and didn't see any hotel to lodge. The only good hotel in fegge is Top Rank hotel opposite that stadium.

Ilovenigeria:
Nice one. I wish we have more hotels in that fegge.

FKO81:
why are you replying the troll? if he has any contribution why not in Anambra thread? The reason why the guy open this thread is because of Ibadan city of short-put thread someone open yesterday, he is the same guy that has been posting rubbish in Igbo threads believe me.

okeke00:
how does cheap land makes people to relocate to asaba?
Just know that some civilised people that does their business in onitsha have gotten tired of living in an unplanned city. Thats the main reason why they are relocating their residential homes to asaba

modhream:
I wonder why u are feeding that troll.He didn't open this thread to make any valuable contribution.Heck,all the industrialists he mentioned currently have their residence in Nnewi,tho as u rightly noted,they travel around as is the wont of any businessman.

BuddahMonk:
Why are you educating that phool, if you checked my comment in the first page i thought he or she came with intention to discuss reasonable thing to discuss and solutions to profer, never knew its a troll on the lose.
Stop replying the mofo abeg, the ediot could be an ofe corp member that just pass through Anambra on his way to Uyo or Bayelsa all of a sudden open a thread to spar with ndi Anambra
He is saying businessmen are leaving Anambra....lol, very funny ndiofe troll

okeke00:
so you now want to lecture me on my own Nnewi which i have spent all my entire life in. They started their business in Nnewi, today where are they living with their families?

okeke00:
keep on living on denial

Ilovenigeria:
Hahqhahhahaha dem go slap you collect your phone from you. I normally put mine on video mode then screen grab when I get home.

okeke00:
i hate lies. Say the truth for once. Please is there anyone on nairaland living in anambra to help us confirm this aligations

okeke00:
where is Louis Cater, Innoson, Ibeto, capital oil, chikason, Fc clement, Ogbuowa, the few list i mentionted all made their wealth in Nnewi apart from capital.
Among the above list, is there any of them that is still living in anambra state?

cjrane:
Nwanne, since you are the only one we have on the ground right now, endeavor to take pictures of things around you. Even if it a project built by Obi . Like Spyder who has been enriching the Enugu thread with pictures along his route to the airport. It makes a thread more interesting to get fresh pictures than the SE recycled Internet pictures over and over.
Daalu for all your sacrifice to help build up this thread.

asha80:
goodluck handed over the structure of pdp to the governors...the pdp ward congress in abia was a farce..orji don pick im men for the congress...do the maths...expect okezie ikpeazu as pdp candidate.

Ilovenigeria:
My guy good evening. How you dey shaaa. Nwanne where and how did you snap that stadium picture in fegge stadium.

asha80:
as t a orji no gree na wetin e go?lol..as much as he is my favourite but i am not too sure of his grassroot appeal.

okeke00:
most of your wealthy business men in onitsha are now relocating to asaba, the ones in Nnewi have left for a long time, lagos may be.
What does it signify? = your state is in a mess

okeke00:
thats owerri-onitsha high way. I can swear, that road have never been swept for the past 6 months. The amount of sand on that road will be enough to complete a six storey building. Let the people living there testify for us
