    Though Enugu seems better than other cities in South East and even Nigeria, it is still way below par and where it should be. A city that inherited the advantage of being the capital of old Eastern region should be rubbing shoulders with Abuja.
    The next Governor needs to constitute a city council and mayor to take care of Enugu. The city needs road expansion, traffic management, water, waste management and aestetics etc.
    Thanks Eboh.

      @@BlueIvory4 You can and here is how: Local govt consists of more than 1 city and town. Make city govt the 4th level by localizing administration within cities and still keep the FG local govt in place. The state govt can raise money for the cities by instituting property taxes and even sales tax to finance them. As long as the FG money is allocated within the city and towns, there won't be any complaints. You might not know this; the Governors currently seize the LGA allocations and give them peanuts for salaries. So, it can be done.

    Popularly known as 'coal city' for its mining activities, Enugu is definitely on the list of the most beautiful cities in Nigeria. The city is one of the oldest urban areas within the region and the locals here are involved in agriculture, along with the mining of coal and other solid minerals.

    First of all, I want to thank my brother Eboh, for your diligence and putting yourself out there to bring us these videos to entertain, educate and also inspire us. God bless you and protect you in your going out and in your coming in.
    They are doing well in terms of keeping refuse off the streets, but it seems the major roads get the most care. Therefore, my rating is that it is neat, but not clean. I mean the major roads are clean, but unpopular roads are dirty and unkept. Neat in the sense that there is limited presence of solid wastes, no carelessly placed objects and no overwhelming presence of deteriorating low quality advertising spaces. However, the roads are not clean because of red mud stains on the road, (but I understand, it’s the mud, dust, the happy Michelins, and co), discolored black/white curb paintings which if you ask me, are absolutely unnecessary. Sooner or later, they end up looking ugly anyway and are one of the culprits of real estate depreciation in Nigeria in addition to those flashy, dysfunctional exterior wall paints that look good only in the buckets. We need street sweeping trucks that use moisture to sweep and wax the roads to maintain shiny asphalt. Also, we shouldn’t be concerned about job losses without looking at the benefits of innovation. This method will increase productivity and quality of work than continuously depending on manpower to sweep and maintain long Blvds using broomsticks and sustaining lower back injuries that may decrease quality of life in old age. I mean come on our government. You can’t even give these workers long brooms and long packers to prevent excessive bending? Just because our people are used to bending doesn’t make it right. I don’t even understand how no one says anything about this. Also, it is not clean because of the presence of gutters. There is nothing clean about open gutters. Seriously, this construction of open gutters is outdated and should be abolished. I’m quite sure it is responsible for the nickname “shithole.” which echoed the minds of many in the Western world and outside of Africa. But their opinion is not the point. The reality is my point here. Oh you thought 2018 was the first time? LoL, well our African brother invited Adrian Monk to come visit him in Africa one day and Monk, and being a man obsessed with cleanliness, unapologetically cringed at the idea and replied “Hmmm ehhh no thanks I will pass.” These mosquito mansions ehm ehm I meant open gutters are harmful to public health and safety. Enugu is beautiful, like many parts of the country has made strides. But we still have areas of improvement. But I have to say Godswill Akpabio did a fantastic job with Uyo, well at least I can speak for the parts I saw. The streets are clean, free of dust or stains, the drains are underground. IMPRESSIVE PLANNING, although I hope the underground drains are maintained and not “out of sight,out of mind” kind of situation. Maintenance is the key. But what is maintenance? How do you achieve it? It begins with Value and Passion. It is something the pursuit of money cannot achieve. If all you want to do is make money, probably I sound foolish to you now. But those who have it in them, the value, the passion, will outperform mr/mrs money chasers of Nigeria. This is the Nigerian story yet to be re-written.

    Southeast region are lacking behind from South South, region both in developments and organize, therefore Southeast citizens have to educate themselves how to keep their Home states clean and organize, also hold their corrupts and incompetent leadership to do more from the allocations they get from federal, thank God Nigeria national assembly has pas laws that gives states more power to some of thiers resources, let see what happens.

      Akwa Ibom is only riding thw wave of oil money like Calabar did. Calabar use to be the shinning city in Nigeria, and a lot of ignorant Nigerians thought it was because of good governance. It was when Cross River lost all its oil wells to Akwa Ibom that it became clear that all of Calabar's glory had come from oil. Today, Calabar is becoming increasingly irrelevant as Uyo starts to shine.
      Trust me when the oil money stops flowing to Akwa Ibom, all these noise you fools are making will go silent.
      You can't compare Uyo or Calabar with some of Igbo cities like Owerri, Aba, Onitsha, or Abakiliki. This is because Igbo cities aren't running on oil money but on private investment and economy. Igboland has historically being at the bottom of the perking order when it comes to federal infrastructure allocation. SE has the least federal government presence of all regions in Nigeria. Yet our people aren't poor like people elsewhere.
      Despite all the oil money, there is still too much poverty in rural Akwa Ibom. Come to the rural villages in Igboland, and you won't see half as much poverty.

    What u said abt Enugu in terms of civility is exactly how it is, Enugu is abt the most civilized city not just in Eastern Nigeria but the entire Nigeria. The only Nigeria city that can compete with Enugu in the area of civility is Calabar. Amongst cities in Nigeria, Enugu is the only city that made it to the list of world cities designated as "Resilient Cities" meaning cities built with lots of spaces, open places and esthetics, therefore, considered habitable and conducive for humans. Am happy for Owerri, especially with what Rochas did with "New Owerri", the city is built and growing into the class of Enugu and even surpassing Enugu with the right kind of leadership

    The problem with Africans is that we expect development to fall from heaven. We don't want to make the sacrifice; we just expect government to bring us development out of thin air.
    In the West where we like to run to, development is actually paid for by the people through taxes and other levies. The funny thing is we Africans go there and pay these huge taxes, but when we come to our own country all we do is nag and complain that nothing is working. The truth is that we are our own problem.
    Watching this clip, I might have mentally counted no less than 1000 well built houses. If the owners of these houses pay land use charge of say N500k yearly, imagine what that could mean in terms of revenue for the government and, by extention, infrastructure in Enugu state? In the West, that is how the money used to build all that shinning infrastructure was generated. It wasn't created from thin air.
    I understand that political corruption is the main thing that discourages people from paying taxes in Nigeria. Politicians in Africa cannot be trusted with state funds because of weak institutions and lax regulations. But we must understand that we can never be developed unless we make the sacrifice. Nothing goes for nothing.
