While commending Ndi Anambra for heeding the “aku luo uno” call, Igwe Achebe said it is high time Ndi Igbo brought home their investments for rapid development of Igbo land.
In his remark, the Project Manager, Engr. Nnoruo, who expressed happiness with Igwe Achebe’s regular visit to the project site, assured that the sponsor, MP Infrastructure, will ensure that the city is liveable from next year, urging intending developers to come forth as some people have started constructing in the city.
