The Anambra State Executive Council (ANSEC) has approved the construction of additional roads across the state to enhance infrastructure and ensure a memorable Christmas for Ndi Anambra returning from across Nigeria and abroad.
In a statement released by the Commissioner for Information, Law Mefor, ANSEC, at its 37th meeting, awarded contracts for key road projects with strict timelines. Among them is the 3.75km Igwe Orizu Road in Nnewi, awarded to New Idea Construction Company Ltd, with a completion period of six months.
The Council also approved the construction of the 10.8km Nkwor Nnewi to Nkwor Oraifite Road at a cost of N7.2 billion. The project, awarded to Infratech Construction Ltd, is expected to be completed within 12 months. Additionally, the 4.922km Oraukwu-Abatete-Nimo bypass in Idemili North was awarded to GMG Global Construction and Development Company Ltd, with a delivery timeline of six months.
The council emphasized the importance of completing roads previously awarded, including the New Tarzan Road and three other roads whose contracts were recently revoked and re-awarded.
Governor Chukwuma Soludo's administration has recorded significant progress in road infrastructure. Notable achievements include the completion of the 12.5km Ezira-Umuomaku-Enugu Umuonyia-Achina Road, connecting multiple communities, and the 11.9km Mmiata-Anam-Nzam Road, linking the headquarters of Anambra West Local Government Area.
These projects are part of Governor Soludo's broader vision to transform Anambra State into a hub of development and a premier destination. With ongoing and completed projects, the state has effectively become a construction hub, reflecting the governor's commitment to improving infrastructure and boosting economic activities.
