“The proposed Nsukka and Oji River Township Stadia will be part of the legacy projects of this administration.

“The style of this administration is such that every part of the state receives attention each time approvals are made for infrastructure development,” he said.

The commissioner said that the stadia and other projects would improve the landscape of the state.

He listed the Senate building for the proposed state University of Education and Environmental Impact Assessment on the proposed Workers’ Secretariat annex in Nsukka as some of the projects approved by the council.

Nnaji disclosed that the state government had constructed 200km of rural link roads in the last four years.

The commissioner said that the link road projects which cut across the state were part of the state government’s urban renewal policy initiative.
