Illegal structures springing up along one of the major roads leading to Anambra International Cargo and Passenger Airport, Umueri, have been marked for removal by the Anambra state government.

The marking exercise was conducted by a joint task force, led by officials of Anambra State Physical Planning Board.

Speaking during the exercise, the Executive Chairman, Anambra State Physical Planning Board, Barrister Chike Maduekwe, said approval was not obtained by the developers as the structures were supposed to be built one hundred meters away from the road and described their actions as illegal.

Barrister Maduekwe noted that if the developers had come to the board for approval, they would have been told the right thing to do, and advised potential developers against erecting structures without government approval.
