By Izunna Okafor, AwkaThe Awka Capital Territory Development Authority (ACTDA) has warned land bankers and speculators against slowing down the development vision of the agency and that of the Solution Government for the capital city. The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of ACTDA, Dr. Ossy Onuko, gave the warning on Wednesday when he led an enforcement team and senior officers of the agency to the Awka Millennium City Estate, Agu-Awka, to assess the level of development and enforce compliance with approved development timelines. According to him, the continued existence of vast undeveloped plots within a flagship government-planned estate like Millennium City Estate not only undermines the purpose for which the land was allocated, but also threatens the broader vision of building and developing a more functional, orderly and modern capital city. Also speaking during the enforcement visit, the Head of Development Control Unit of ACTDA, Mr. Charles Ekwunife, expressed disappointment over the level of compliance, describing Awka Millennium City Estate as a project that was designed to set a benchmark for planned urban development in the state. Earlier in his remarks, the Facility Manager of Awka Millennium City Estate, Mrs. Nwanneka Nwachukwu, acknowledged that development in the Estate has been slow, revealing that the area has not attained reasonable amount of development despite repeated engagements with property owners.
