If anyone thinks river Niger will be dredged, that person is only wasting his time. Onitsha is below the sea level and dredging the river Niger means that the whole of Onitsha would be under water. There are ways to go about it tho that would help mitigate the flooding of Onitsha, but it would Cost a whole lot of money, of which no government is willing to spend such amount on that. The Nigerian government just continuously creates Soundbeat on the Niger river dredging, to create conversations on the fact that the government is doing something, but there won't be actual implementations on it.


It's the same thing they do with the Ajaokuta steel company. It can never work

Where did you get the site plan from?

Well… when you see mediocrity… is obvious and an eyesore… so a project of billions of Naira have such an ugly thin road to it?

Why not you go to a Virgin place and make something new… make the access roads beautiful… paved roads with light poles and covered gullies to the solution park....show pure greenery with wide access roads.
There are things you see … you will know is a mockery.

I have asked for the computer graphics of the park…none is seen because there is none. Since Soludo is choosing to situate it in Awka why not make it worthy of capital of Anambra … see the access road so thin and horrible.
This is shameful…

When Obiano constructed roads in the main Awka he bore it in mind to have a befitting capital look… now all pictures of Awka have that bridge as Awka signature.

Many think I am against Soludo… I want him not to disappoint me …sadly my fears is obvious

Ekwulobia bridge is Nice but one lane…
The ekwlobia bridge and the fun city is the obvious infrastructure in Awka …the way ekwulobia is going is well and good but this fun city?

The ogbunike cave is better it will be more serene because of the lush trees and all… ANSG don’t like wide roads, trees and greens, covered gullies etc. and is quite saddening as many love this shoddy jobs..

We see on social media when roads newly built by other states so nice with light and all… but our own… we can’t even boast of it.. look at Asaba… do you see the road leading to the place? This what we ask for in Anambra but is an impossible request. You will see how this project will be a joke if care is not taken

They way Soludo conduct construction is not satisfactory someone is saying it in video.. wait for some here who is only living here to insult but cannot contribute constructively do what is known for..

Armon:




Let me ask you a simple question? How does your answer change that thin ugly and Narrow road?

Good you said is in express Roads look at our express roads? There is no difference between internal roads or street roads and that…You should not even have mentioned that … now see…later they will call for expansion when is saturated…which will not happen soon.

Mediocrity is mediocrity… with your open eyes you see that road for a bonded terminals and you have this response? What is wrong with us?

You haven’t imagined what if a huge vehicle container spoils on that road, can another huge one can pass beside it? Can that road carry the heavy duties?

And finally if is not possible to construct a dual carriage way are round the state …so the state can’t construct the right roads for the right purpose ?

Right now new roads are built why can’t it made dual carriage so there will be not call for expansion … was it not same amansea they built terrible roads that almost blocked a water way which hosts one of the the bonded terminals?

I don’t support mesdiocrity

Armon:


Wow… this Awesome… indeed this a rapid development. Thank you so much for that update.

Brother take a look at that road leading to the bonded terminals… do you see how thin it is? How will those roads be efficient… both in durability and space. That road will be plied by huge lorries with Heavy containers. Will it be those Golgotha roads that will carry them? Also the business are already bracing for expansion and ANSG can’t anticipate and do some thing quickly
You see why I frown at the roads ANSG builds? Our Government is not proactive at all… i cry and wail for wide and durable roads. And when they construct roads they term some rural roads being a reason why they can’t construct wides roads even when both sides are empty with covered drains slight poles and traffic lights. This tells you they are not in tune that Anambra is developing all round.
Later we will start begging them to dualized some roads after is heavily or densely occupied on both sides which is almost an impossible request..You see is foolishness.

Is this how we become a developed city ? They should make a laws ; henceforth how new roads will be built… to stop this mediocrity every where

If I say… some will support this mediocrity and lack of insights. You beg investors to bring investments home yet you can’t build a good city roads…I mean is terrible.

There is six storey hotel inside Udoka I thought it will be the tallest hotel in Awka, another person is building another tall hotel and mall simultaneously before NNPC, they're roofing the mall, while the hotel is till going up they're in sixth floor now

cadmanspize:


Please where is dat to be situated?

TundeBricklayer:
I don't know who owns this new industry at the back of ICC, with Staff quarter

abuzz33:


It's not needed. From my hotel near Unizik Junction to the Conference Center took just 5 minutes. There are a lot of nice hotels in Awka along that expressway.

If anything, they could take 2 plots of that parking space next to the ICC and create a nice LAWN with flowers for outdoor events like weddings or parties - like Finotel does with it's own. Then it could be complimentary to the ICC.

The state government needs to adopt two ways of funding transport infrastructure. For state roads federal allocation for city roads property and business tax.

It's ridiculous that you will see a 300 metre road in Awka or Onitsha with 40 buildings using a dirt road . A road of that length can be constructed for around 40m or roughly 1m per building. The way roads are financed in the rest of the world is through bonds. You collect property tax over 10-30 years. You spread that bond over 10-30 years. It becomes 200k a year. In Onitsha with lots of multi-tenant buildings it's very easy to pay off that 200k. A 6 unit building that's 33k a year.

Places with high net worth individuals are supposed to have good roads based on property tax. But you go to Udoka, Ngozika, broken down or non-existent roads.

Armon:



Soludo will not deliver this … even with his so called academic success you will see the eyesore they will build if at all they do it.

We have not seen the 3D graphics video of both the fun city and ekwulobia flyover. Let alone this one just watch and see.

Armon:


Brother I vehemently disagree with you… Anambra is expanding in full force, if is not expanding they will not consider constructing that road…
Remember how aroma was before Obiano rebuilt it that every picture of Anambra is finer because it bears bridge. He should do the same… if that road was properly constructed people will automatically remain at that rural area therefore they will not be heavy concentration at the city.

All the roads we are crying to be dualized how many has been done? None!!! only promises why not avert a future one? Most of our leaders and people supporting them lack vision. Wake up Anambra is developing all round forget rural areas make every where a town build the roads like town. Awka is moving down to Amansea you are calling it rural…

Look at the joke of a bridge built on a fine river will it cost fortunes to raise it up? So It will cost fortunes to dualise a road that both sides are free, also cost fortunes to make atleast an “n” curved bridge for the river freely flow? Also it will cost fortunes to put a nice rail on the bridge… just hear your self

With mediocrity we can’t have a city not with these Golgotha roads but with wide dualized paved roads with light poles , covered drains and traffic lights

Armon:
.

Thank you for sharing … the road is not wide and yet not dualized… while both sides are free … a village will not remain a village forever… why don’t you build it as if is town… in that way migration from cities are automatic and in the future there will not be any call of dualization of the roads…

So that is the bridge of the amansea river … why can’t that bridge be reasonably higher? Look at the poor one sided rail on the poor bridge…Rivers should be allowed to flow free and the bridges above it should be high incase the river increase as well as encouraging fishing directly under the bridge. Kindly go and check the one Obiano built at the riverine area.. please I want higher standards for my state not mediocrity every where….truly not satisfactory

pandax:


Are you descibing Amasea-Ifite Road with overpass at 'step' to link the other side of Ifite Road at Amudo village?. Then Ekwueme Sq-Government House Road

Or

An entirely greenfield Road through Amansea-Ifite and burst out at New Government House- Ekwueme Square?. Where is the overpass here?

Hopefully, Governor Soludo will be inspired and get a few ideas on urban regeneration and environmental maintenance from his recent trip to Rwanda!

Kigali is green and spotless, and this is the template we should try replicating in Awka, Onitsha, Nnewi and the state inter-city highways.

Dont underestimate the importance of rural roads. Without accessible roads, rural areas cannot develop

Abufo:









These people that Soludo packed in his admin including Soludo himself are just a bunch of jokers! Otti has signaled a correct direction in just 4 months.........tackle the wahala of Aba before getting lost in the maze of rural areas............Take care of your bread basket first before wallowing in the field of idealism..........Face the Realism of the massive decline of Onitsha and Nnewi.............See cotonou in Republique du benin.........this is where our Presidents go to collect their monthly allowance and commission.........I wonder how much of igbo wealth have been transfered to the coffers of that country in the name of clearing cars and containers in their ports...............The state of the igbo nation is tear jerking! At least the Beninois have the good sense to put their windfall to good use! See Infrastructure!!
