Public Utilities Commissioner, Engr. Ezenwanne Carries Out final inspection of 2×60MVA Injection Substation in Awka Anambra state commissioner for Public Utilities and Water Resources, Engr. Emeka Ezenwanne alongside officials of Niger Delta Electricity Distribution Company and NIPP earlier today carried out final inspection of an expandable 2×60 MVA built in Awka and ready for commissioning later this month of June. The power injection substation project which was built by NDEDC and NIPP when commissioned according to the Commissioner will help increase hours of availability of power in Awka and environs. It will boost businesses and power industries. Moreover, Engr. Ezenwanne informed that the 2×60MVA is different from the ongoing construction of six (6) injection substations in the state which is a partnership between Anambra state government and NIPP. The Commissioner thanked Governor Willie Obiano for his continuous investments in the power sector which he noted is key to unlocking industrial revolution in the state and Southeast as a whole. 4 Likes 1 Share

Anambra capital city and all other cities in the state are by far safer than your jungle state capital where they are beheading people and fulani terrorists have chased you all away. Your state is cursed, useless, worthless and backward, that's why you are always bitter, envious and frustrated about a progressive Anambra. ![]() [s] BossJamal:[/s] 7 Likes |

Aftermath of Accident: Citizens Comment on non-Use of Awka Flyovers by Articulated Vehicles Road users, as well as motorists in Awka, Anambra State, have raised concerns about the propriety or otherwise of articulated vehicles to access the three flyovers constructed by the Willie Obiano Administration in the heart of the State. They said allowing such vehicles to ply the flyovers would ensure a free flow of traffic in the state capital and also serve as an alternative to what they termed unnecessary gridlock, reports Alexander Johnson Adejoh. The fresh concerns about the proper use of the flyovers came in the wake of a fatal crash at Kwata Bridge, June 4, which claimed the lives of an undetermined number of people. It involved a trailer which brakes failed, causing it to ram into a number of vehicles and pedestrians. But in the aftermath of the crash, many have attributed the regular crashes there to the barring of articulated vehicles from plying the bridge. Aroma Flyover The road users, who said they hoped for years that the state government would have solved what they tagged a flaw in the state’s transportation system, decried the time wasted in traffic jams, especially during rush hours. They also said the population of Awka was fast growing and as such it was mostly inconvenient for motorists to ply the roads beside the flyovers, owing to the major delays caused by roadside hawkers and the breakdown of heavy duty vehicles. Speaking to Fides at Amawbia Bridge, Uche Chukwu, a motorist, said it was unnecessary for any person in Anambra State or in Nigeria to even think that articulated vehicles would be allowed to ply those flyovers in Awka. [b]A lot of People still have grudges against the cost of construction of the flyovers but they shouldn’t forget that here is Nigeria where anything goes. The money could have either been siphoned into private pockets or channeled into other white elephant projects and the sky wouldn’t have fallen. The flyover cannot stand the strength of heavy-duty vans,’ Chukwu said. Also, Mrs Cynthia Mbanefo said, ‘The pain we go through after work every day is unbearable because I waited for more than 30 minutes at Aroma Junction and here I am stuck again in traffic at Kwata, so you can imagine waiting here for more than an hour on a daily basis, which is not good.’ Daniel, a shuttle driver, agreed that trucks should be allowed access through the flyovers, which, he said, would reduce traffic and make life less difficult for road users, adding that evening rush hours were the worst periods. Allowing articulated vehicles to ply the bridges is not really a bad option except for the fact that everyone is scared of the standard of the flyover, Daniel told Fides.[/b] However Fides recalls that months ago, there were complaints that one of the bridges, precisely the one at Aroma Junction, was on the brink of collapse. In replying to the rumours, the State Governor, Chief Willie Obiano, said there were no fears at all that the flyover bridges he built were collapsing. Obiano, who inspected the bridges, referred to them as iconic, insisting that the state government engaged the very best in the world of construction in building the flyovers, and that feasibility studies were carried out on the kind of bridges it was building before embarking on them. He said the three bridges were built to last a long time. Represented by the Commissioner for Works in Anambra State, Engr. Marcel Ifejiofor, Obiano said Aroma Flyover was strong and safe, contrary to insinuations on the social media questioning the safety of the bridge. Ifejiofor stated that the alleged crack being circulated by those he called scaremongers had nothing to do with the bridge, insisting that the standard of the bridge was not compromised in any way. He explained that the minor gap was on the side embankment on the Enugu approach which was added following an accident involving a big lorry on the Kwata Bridge. Ifejiofor, who took journalists on an inspection tour of the bridge, said the Aroma flyover was built to global standards. ‘The expansion which they talked about is an intrinsic part of bridge construction and does not indicate a crack. The three flyover bridges at Aroma, Kwata and Amawbia, were awarded in 2014 and 2015 and are safe, not to mention the 15 other bridges built across the state by the Obiano Administration. I assure Ndi Anambra of the commitment of Governor Obiano to the safety of lives at all times. The barricade on the bridges are normal safety measures against big lorries rolling back from the bridge,’ Also, Infrastructure Development Company, IDC, the company which constructed the flyover bridges, speaking through the construction Manager, Engr Yousssef Zghaib, said the embankment which had cracks and which was being shown on the social media had no correlation with the standard of the bridge. He said the bridge was a separate unit, away from the embankment, and that accidents atop the flyover, in which a car hit the wall, could affect it but that it would have nothing to do with the flyover. He assured that there was no cause for alarm, saying that Aroma Bridge is safe. Meanwhile, Fides observed that during the last accident at Kwata, June 4, 2021, articulated vehicles were allowed to ply the flyovers so as to permit easy flow of traffic, prompting people to wonder why they were not allowed to ply there in the first place. Efforts to have the Commissioners for Works and Transportation, as well as his Information counterpart, proved futile as at press time. |

mktinsight: IDC a quack Lebanese construction company that built nonsense footbridge at unizik junction that interferes with one highway lane. Built Amawbia to Awka expressway that had no emergency lane or crash barrier and three flyovers where lorries cannot successfully climb without rolling back. Aroma flyover is going to be demolished by the next governor because it causes more problem than it solves. But it makes you question the dullard at ministry of works. How did such a rotten contractor get awarded billions in contracts? Ifejiofor calls those flyover bridges standard. Standard is flyover at upper iweka and new parts not that rubbish. Just look at what RCC is building from Umunya to Amawbia that is a standard expressway with proper drainage and crash barrier. 1 Like |

Yes as good works of the state govt are shown here. We won't also fail to show the bad sides of the state and how it affects everyday pple. My friend kept lamenting on Saturday on d bad state of the state capital's internal roads used by motorists. She kept asking if things continue this way till d Yuletide season it won't be funny. Awka roads are bad and with the blocking of the police zone which happens to be d only sensible tarred road leading to major places in Awka. One would wonder if this id how life is going to be for those living in major towns who have to commute themselves to Awka everyday..not forgetting the increase in transport fare due to bad and untarred roads in d State capital. The next govt needs to embark on massive road projects in d state and major routes leading to d capital should be disliked. pics below of roads commuters painstakingly pass through to get to major axis of d capital...quite embarrassing 5 Likes

NwaforIgbo:the only mistake we make in Nigeria while building our cities, is lack of planning!! If an area or section can be mapped out, which would be called Downtown/CBD where at least 5 tall buildings would be built. It would help to give our cities especially in SE a face lift. . It's already late because most of the cities we have today have been built up with residential buildings. .. unless the development of a New City will emerge with structural planning.. .. Owerri, Onitsha, Enugu, Aba non of these cities has been structurally planned to enable the development of a downtown where we could see at least 5 skyscrapers! Government has a huge role to play 5 Likes |
