The road infrastructure being built in the present Anambra are of the highest quality and durability, especially in light of the fact that the current administration is led by the three time best CBN governor in the world. In this regard, Soludo's government has taken a different approach to ensure that the infrastructure built under his leadership is of superior quality and built to last. This approach is all the more impressive given the paucity of funds, staggering inflation, and the fact that no loan was borrowed, even though the 7th Assembly approved a loan of N100 billion .

Soludo has set a new standard of excellence in road construction and commissioning. The state is the only one in Nigeria that mandates cement stabilization, laying of stone base, and proper drainage before the final asphalting, road marking, and provision of walkways on both sides of the road. This approach has been employed across the construction of 450 kilometers of roads, with 250 kilometers already completed. It is a historic achievement that has never been seen before in Anambra's history, as communities, elderly, farmers, shuttle, keke, and Okada riders are allowed to commission roads built for them.

The impact of this achievement can not be overstated as Soludo’s administration is constructing an average of 10km of road per month in his 24 months in office. He is determined to make doing business in Anambra State a seamless and pleasurable experience for all, and his efforts have not gone unnoticed. Ndi Anambra have expressed their satisfaction with the ongoing road infrastructure projects, which have been accompanied by the construction of Ekwulobia modern flyover and modern parks.

 Lilian Orogbu: "A beauty pageant or a federal lawmaker?" By Izuchukwu Adichie Apart from the fact that Lilian Orogbo diverted N200 million federal government palliatives meant for the people of Awka North and South constituency, she has a trait of a "beauty pageant and ineffective lawmaking". So when the announcement was made that she won the election for a federal house, and I saw her photos, I asked myself if it wasn’t such a calamity for a beauty pageant to transition into politics and even to represent Awka. Such a calamity!! Compared with other female federal lawmakers from Anambra both in the past and present, Orogbo, the beauty - pageant lawmaker in her eight months has not been able to meet the legislative expectations of her constituent, has not attracted a single project or intervention, and has clearly shown she talk without some level of thought or cognition. However, how can a lawmaker who should partner with her state Governor in promoting law and ord
