Josephjnr: Its actually true. They've been on it for a while now and the final masterplan was submitted last month. I think the idea of having a masterplan came about after the Ogunpa flood. It's a world bank funded project and the contract was awarded to Dar-Al-Handasah There are twitter accounts that tweet about everything going on and they even have a well detailed website http://ibadan-masterplan.com http://ibadan-masterplan.com/project-timeline/ http://ibadan-masterplan.com/a-masterplan-for-ibadan/ 3 Likes |
