Reacting during the inspection of the ongoing construction of the market located in Onitsha South Local Government Area, on Saturday, the governor frowned at the delay of the work.
Soludo expressed displeasure, saying that the contractor is not giving the project the speed it needed after it commenced work last year. He said, “We will give him another two weeks and send somebody to come and check in the next two weeks. If it still hasn’t been done, we will chase him out and bring another person who will do it fast.
“I want the names of those who would be here to be compiled peacefully because they are going to relocate soonest. I will add another building to make it three because of the complaints that two are not enough so that those outside will be accommodated.
“Modern toilets and boreholes are here, street lights would be mounted for traders to do their business up to 7 to 8 pm, and this space here is for a car park for customers to see where to park their vehicles when they come shopping.
“I am here to inspect all the constructed sites to ensure there will be no flood disaster in this coming rainy season.
“Anambra must be clean, we don’t want fake Ezenwanyi, ‘fake dibias’, they are all on the run, fake prophets are no longer wanted in the state because there is Anambra State where people are known for hard work, all these people that are teaching our people how to get rich quick would be stopped before it turns to culture.
“They should teach people that hard work pays or indulge them in skills which is what we are doing in the state, we have taught 5,000 youths on skills and given them grants and this year another 8,300 are being taught and will be given grants after that.”
