According to the Senator representing Anambra Central Senatorial District and a frontline Governorship Aspirant for the 2021 Anambra Governorship Election under the platform of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Uche Ekwunife in a virtual meeting with a group of Lecturers and Researchers under the auspices of Academic Frontiers Initiative on Friday, July 11, 2020.
The Senator said: “I’ve lived in Awka for over 20 years and I’m sorry to say that not much have changed over the years. It’s unfortunate that many parts of Awka South local government which houses the capital city is still underdeveloped.”
“Awka has a master plan which has been abandoned by successive governments. We need to go back to the plan, expand it, incorporate some border areas into the capital city plan, move some government agencies towards these new areas and facilitate new projects to expand the capital city as well as give it a befitting new look.” Senator Ekwunife added.
