”We look at environmental impact, what it was before and what it is today, I remember about 2 months ago, Mr Governor came here, the number of Batcher and makeshifts here was disturbing.

“We are trying to revive onitsha, one of the key delivery of the Governor is that he want to bring life into Onitsha instead of our brothers living across the bridge and coming work to Onitsha, this is one of the key things we want to achieve, we reclaim and put it into a good look”.

“There would be another milestone for people who is doing businesses going across the Niger, we must achieve some level of leisure, some level of entertainment, all these things must be achieved, I don’t know how many plots or acres of land we are reclaiming, but obviously, the urban regeneration and Local government must achieve something meaningful and we must make Onitsha a liveable and prosperous homeland.

“But today we have achieved water fountain, quality roads, instead of people commending the governor for the great job, for reviving Ochanja, the water fountain is still under construction, and not yet commissioned .
