In line with the commitment by the wife of the Governor of Anambra state, Dr Mrs Ebelechukwu Obiano to stop open defecation in the state, and to uplift the living standards of Ndi Anambra, a new toilet facility has been built and commissioned at Unizik temporary site junction Awka.
The facility which is dedicated to the Governor’s wife has sections for male, female, physically-challenged persons, and for nursing mothers.
The facility has round-the-clock security, borehole and overhead tank for adequate water supply that will guarantee hygiene at the facility.
Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Awka Capital Territory Development Authority, ACTDA, Barrister Amaechi Okwuosa, who announced that the dedication of the facility to the Anambra first lady was to immortalise and help her achieve lofty objectives for Ndi-Anambra, recalled that Mrs Obiano had embarked on similar projects in Local Government Areas across the State, adding that the facility at the UNIZIK junction will be built in other strategic places within the State capital.
He urged the public to treat the facility with utmost care, and accord deserved respect to security and other staff working at the facility, and warned against misuse of the facility.
Commending the state government for the project through the Awka Capital Territory Development Authority, Mr. Chukwubiko Ezeonwujiobi, a commercial driver with the Ekwulobia Urban Mass Transit, and Mrs Stella Ike, called on the general public to reciprocate Government gestures by taking ownership of the facility.
