 *Dualization of Amawbia-Agulu-Nanka-Ekwulobia-Uga Roads.*  *ILLEGAL OCCUPANTS SHOULD BEGIN TO RELOCATE* Paul Nwosu  In line with Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludoā€™s plan to bequeath an enduring road network to Ndi Anambra, the Government of Anambra State will soon embark on the dualization of Amawbia-Agulu-Nanka-Ekwulobia-Uga Roads. Though these are federal roads, they are primarily used by Ndi Anambra. Governor Soludo has therefore redesigned them for reconstruction to better facilitate commercial, industrial and agricultural activities across the areas they cut through. In the light of this, government wishes to advise property owners along those routes to begin to plan how to relocate them somewhere else. The law demands that any property along a federal highway must be set back 47.5 meters from the centre of the road. Anything short of that is in violation of the law and such a property will be regarded and treated as an illegal structure which we do not wish to happe...

 WHAT GOV. SANWO-OLU SAID ON MINIMUM WAGE The Lagos State Government has not increased the minimum wage, contrary to the impression in some media reports, which emanated from the unveiling of Eko Cares ā€“ the umbrella for the various interventions to protect the poor against the effects of the prevailing economic hardship. The event was held at the Governorā€™s Office in Ikeja on Wednesday. Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has been erroneously quoted as saying that a new minimum wage of N70,000 had been announced. This is wrong. Mr. Governor never said so. He said since January, civil servants had been earning the N35,000 wage award directed by the Federal Government.  In other words, those earning N35,000 now earn N70,000. He did not announce a new minimum wage of N70,000.  His words: ā€œI know that by the grace of God very very soon we'll see a new minimum wage that will be approved for the Federal Government and the State government.
