Knock down shoprite and restore the old polo park as well.

We need more recreation parks in the coal city. Enugu is becoming congested and suffocated.

Those who built churches or other houses in the parks should be prosecuted and made to pay fines.

Old Phoenix need to be restored. Those who sold the lands and their buyers should be arrested.

If I was governor, shoprite would’ve been demolished.

I fear who no fear you! shocked

Anybody well grounded in Enugu will not be deceived by this cheap propaganda. We know that it is housing estates that will end up in those parks. Houses that will eventually be sold to his friends and cronies. We know this is another land grabbing mission!!!

For example, Udu Ubaka park sited in this report is not a state owned property. This land was formely owned in the 1980's by the late Igwe Stephen Udu Ubaka. Stephen Udu Ubaka was the former traditional ruler of Oraifite town in Anambra State. His children has since sold the land to a man from Awgu LGA Enugu state with the name "Duke and Gold". The man is late now.

It is a private property and discerning minds will question the mission of this land-grabbing governor on another man's property.

It will not end well for him if he ends up forcefully grabbing a widow's land from her just because he is the governor. He has done it in several other places in Enugu and God is watching him. Soon, he will blame the commissioner for being the one stealing people's properties.

This one will surely end in tears for this lazy governor!!! If he thinks nature does not have a way of balancing our deeds here on earth......let him continue.
You Sabi am well!

That she-man of a governor will sell that land and use it to build estate.

Since he was the governor of Enugu. He is busy acquring and selling all the lands in Enugu. Too bad!

No infrastructure, No beauty, No water . Enugu is now a shadow of itself.

For what it's worth ShopRite is vital to the State, as it serves both for recreation and shopping, as well as contributing to the IGR of the state in a way Polo can never.

Ejindu park, where I learned how to ride a bicycle in 1991 grin

I was a complete "Egbe camp" through and through cheesy That is the place I grew up. We were the "boress" generation. Anybody who knows what the word means can relate to an era of technological innovation by children in that part of Enugu.

This park was well maintained with many facilities provided for our play.

You are right.. I wonder why Government of the time did not harnesss the wonderful creativity of Coal city children at the time. I remember vividly growing up in that early 90s in Abakpa area, we created our own toys, built Boress Carts (with which we fetched water from (Mmiri ocha) Ekulu river and the creative competition to build the best toy cars, Carts and innovate many things was awesome. It a golden era. Children of this Noodle age is completely lacking in creativity.

Very welcome development.

Like Oliver Twist, we want some more.

He should do same for Nnaji Park in New Haven and John Nwodo close Park.

ALso a law should be passed by State Assembly and signed by Governor that makes it a must for every new estate to have park/green space and also outlawing the cutting of trees without cogent reasons (in place of one tree cut, you plant 2) in the state

I can recall him engaging in such. He has a construction business with good patronage by NL members and as such behaves himself here.

I hope they're not building anything there! ALL areas designated for parks should be used solely for the purpose they were marked out for....and i don't mean the usual LOCAL nonsense the governor is known for! He should travel to London and see what proper parks look like!

I think he should build another Polo park instead. We need a centrally located shopping plaza like Shoprite, where there are other facilities like a ferris wheel, etc.

He can do a new Polo park around Nchatancha Nike.

A new park should be situated in a central place, those big empty lands opposite okpara square is a good place.
They should add more more utilities in Polo Park, that ferries wheel is not enough.

That's cool, I enjoyed my stay at Ozalla under the Chief Ogbogu. I entered every nook and cranny of Ozalla, Akegbe ugwu and Obuofia. It was fun in those days. I also attend the old boys events.
