The City Gate
Mixed Reactions Trail Ongoing Construction of Onicha-Ugbo City Gate
– Emeka Esogbue
Plans are already ongoing to complete the Onicha-Ugbo City Gate as pictures of the current state of the construction surfaced on the community’s Facebook page with commentators, making different views.
Meanwhile, mixed reactions have trailed the major project of the Ezechime settlement.
A certain Okoh Lizzy who expressed her thought wrote, “though it’s nice but this is not the major priority now. Look at the way our Afia Eke (market) looks disgusting and I also heard that the scarcity of water past dry season was something else. These are the things to put in place before this city gate. My thought though.
Emmanuel Udomi, in his own opinion submitted, “city gate with no health center, no water, no trade learning center, and no market. I am a bit worried.”
Showing appreciation of the ongoing construction, Lizzy Akpala, another commentator who passed her opinion submitted, “good work. Keep it up na small, small we go come up.”
Onicha-Ugbo is an Anioma town in Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State.
Issele-Uku and Okpanam are two Anioma communities that have successfully completed their city gates, among others.
